Additional tags for activity names (and descriptions) #17

Closed kiwi-cam closed 1 year ago

kiwi-cam commented 1 year ago

I'd like to improve on the default Strava activity naming but there are some tags that I don't see in the UI. Specifically, I'd like to be able to add:

  1. The activity type (e.g. Run or Ride)
  2. The city or general location name. Similar to Garmin's default names based on the activity location (e.g. Chicago Run).

Looking at the commit history, it seems you'd already started on point 1, and it's now in the UI. Thanks!

Yes the first use case (sport type) was already possible, I simply added the tag there to make it easier.

The second one, location based, is slightly trickier as I'm never doing a reverse geotracking (coordinates to location) for activities. It is possible to do it, but it needs some consideration as the extra API calls could increase costs considerably.

Location data tags will not be added, for now. In the future I will increase the level of the location cache data (including the city) so I'll revisit the idea when this is ready.
