If something is not working, please check https://connect.garmin.com/status/ first.
Currently, most of previous features are working, but some of Rest API are not added, such as Gear
,Workout
,Badge
etc. So if you need these features, please add a PR.
All of above work inspired by https://github.com/matin/garth. Many thanks.
A powerful JavaScript library for connecting to Garmin Connect for sending and receiving health and workout data. It comes with some predefined methods to get and set different kinds of data for your Garmin account, but also have the possibility to make custom requests GET
, POST
and PUT
are currently supported. This makes it easy to implement whatever may be missing to suite your needs.
Prerequisites
This library will require you to add a configuration file to your project root called garmin.config.json
containing your username and password for the Garmin Connect service.
{
"username": "my.email@example.com",
"password": "MySecretPassword"
}
How to install
$ npm install garmin-connect
How to use
const { GarminConnect } = require('garmin-connect');
// Create a new Garmin Connect Client
const GCClient = new GarminConnect({
username: 'my.email@example.com',
password: 'MySecretPassword'
});
// Uses credentials from garmin.config.json or uses supplied params
await GCClient.login();
const userProfile = await GCClient.getUserProfile();
Now you can check userProfile.userName
to verify that your login was successful.
Reusing your session(since v1.6.0)
Save token to file and reuse it.
GCClient.saveTokenToFile('/path/to/save/tokens');
Result:
$ ls /path/to/save/tokens
oauth1_token.json oauth2_token.json
Reuse token:
GCClient.loadTokenByFile('/path/to/save/tokens');
Or just save your token to db or other storage.
const oauth1 = GCClient.client.oauth1Token;
const oauth2 = GCClient.client.oauth2Token;
// save to db or other storage
...
Reuse token:
GCClient.loadToken(oauth1, oauth2);
Reusing your session(depreated)
This is an experimental feature and might not yet provide full stability.
After a successful login the sessionJson
getter and setter can be used to export and restore your session.
// Exporting the session
const session = GCClient.sessionJson;
// Use this instead of GCClient.login() to restore the session
// This will throw an error if the stored session cannot be reused
GCClient.restore(session);
The exported session should be serializable and can be stored as a JSON string.
A stored session can only be reused once and will need to be stored after each request. This can be done by attaching some storage to the sessionChange
event.
GCClient.onSessionChange((session) => {
/*
Your choice of storage here
node-persist will probably work in most cases
*/
});
Login fallback
To make sure to use a stored session if possible, but fallback to regular login, one can use the restoreOrLogin
method.
The arguments username
and password
are both optional and the regular .login()
will be
called if session restore fails.
await GCClient.restoreOrLogin(session, username, password);
Events
-
sessionChange
will trigger on a change in the currentsessionJson
To attach a listener to an event, use the .on()
method.
GCClient.on('sessionChange', (session) => console.log(session));
There's currently no way of removing listeners.
Reading data
User info
Receive basic user information
GCClient.getUserInfo();
Social Profile
Receive social user information
GCClient.getSocialProfile();
Social Connections
Get a list of all social connections
GCClient.getSocialConnections();
Device info
Get a list of all registered devices including model numbers and firmware versions.
GCClient.getDeviceInfo();
Activities
To get a list of recent activities, use the getActivities
method. This function takes two arguments, start and limit, which is used for pagination. Both are optional and will default to whatever Garmin Connect is using. To be sure to get all activities, use this correctly.
// Get a list of default length with most recent activities
GCClient.getActivities();
// Get activities 10 through 15. (start 10, limit 5)
GCClient.getActivities(10, 5);
Activity details
Use the activityId to get activity details.
// search for the activity (optional)
const [activity] = await GCClient.getActivities(0, 1);
// get the activity details
const activityDetails = await GCClient.getActivityDetails(activity.activityId);
Activity metrics details
Use the activityId to get metrics details about that specific activity.
const activities = await GCClient.getActivities(0, 1);
const id = activities[0].activityId;
// Use the id as a parameter
GCClient.getActivity({ activityId: id });
// Or the whole activity response
GCClient.getActivity(activities[0]);
Activities
To get a list of activities in your news feed, use the getNewsFeed
method. This function takes two arguments, start and limit, which is used for pagination. Both are optional and will default to whatever Garmin Connect is using. To be sure to get all activities, use this correctly.
// Get the news feed with a default length with most recent activities
GCClient.getNewsFeed();
// Get activities in feed, 10 through 15. (start 10, limit 5)
GCClient.getNewsFeed(10, 5);
Download original activity data
Use the activityId to download the original activity data. Usually this is supplied as a .zip file.
const [activity] = await GCClient.getActivities(0, 1);
// Directory path is optional and defaults to the current working directory.
// Downloads filename will be supplied by Garmin.
GCClient.downloadOriginalActivityData(activity, './some/path/that/exists');
Upload activity file
Uploads an activity file as a new Activity. The file can be a gpx
, tcx
, or fit
file. If the activity already exists, the result will have a status code of 409.
Upload fixed in 1.4.4, Garmin changed the upload api, the response detailedImportResult
doesn't contain the new activityId.
const upload = await GCClient.uploadActivity('./some/path/to/file.fit');
// not working
const activityId = upload.detailedImportResult.successes[0].internalId;
const uploadId = upload.detailedImportResult.uploadId;
Upload activity image
Uploads an image to activity
const [latestActivty] = await GCClient.getActivities(0, 1);
const upload = await GCClient.uploadImage(
latestActivty,
'./some/path/to/file.jpg'
);
Delete activity image
Delete an image from activity
const [activity] = await GCClient.getActivities(0, 1);
const activityDetails = await GCClient.getActivityDetails(activity.activityId);
await GCClient.deleteImage(
activity,
activityDetails.metadataDTO.activityImages[0].imageId
);
Step count
Get timestamp and number of steps taken for a specific date.
// This will default to today if no date is supplied
const steps = await GCClient.getSteps(new Date('2020-03-24'));
Heart rate
Get heart rate for a specific date.
// This will default to today if no date is supplied
const heartRate = await GCClient.getHeartRate(new Date('2020-03-24'));
Sleep summary
Get the summary of how well you've slept for a specific date.
// This will default to today if no date is supplied
const sleep = await GCClient.getSleep(new Date('2020-03-24'));
Detailed sleep data
Get the details of your sleep for a specific date.
// This will default to today if no date is supplied
const detailedSleep = await GCClient.getSleepData(new Date('2020-03-24'));
Modifying data
Update activity
const activities = await GCClient.getActivities(0, 1);
const activity = activities[0];
activity['activityName'] = 'The Updated Name';
await GCClient.updateActivity(activity);
Delete an activity
Deletes an activty.
const activities = await GCClient.getActivities(0, 1);
const activity = activities[0];
await GCClient.deleteActivity(activity);
Add weight
To add a new weight measurement, use setBodyWeight
. Here you specify your weight in kg.
GCClient.setBodyWeight(81.4);
Will set your current weight to 81.4kg. The unit used might be tied to your preferred weight settings.
Add workout
To add a custom workout, use the addWorkout
or more specifically addRunningWorkout
.
GCClient.addRunningWorkout('My 5k run', 5000, 'Some description');
Will add a running workout of 5km called 'My 5k run' and return a JSON object representing the saved workout.
Schedule workout
To add a workout to your calendar, first find your workout and then add it to a specific date.
const workouts = await GCClient.getWorkouts();
const id = workouts[0].workoutId;
GCClient.scheduleWorkout({ workoutId: id }, new Date('2020-03-24'));
This will add the workout to a specific date in your calendar and make it show up automatically if you're using any of the Garmin watches.
Delete workout
Deleting a workout is very similar to scheduling one.
const workouts = await GCClient.getWorkouts();
const id = workouts[0].workoutId;
GCClient.deleteWorkout({ workoutId: id });
Custom requests
This library will handle custom requests to your active Garmin Connect session. There are a lot of different url's that is used, which means that this library probably wont cover them all. By using the network analyze tool you can find url's that are used by Garmin Connect to fetch data.
Let's assume I found a GET
requests to the following url:
https://connect.garmin.com/modern/proxy/wellness-service/wellness/dailyHeartRate/22f5f84c-de9d-4ad6-97f2-201097b3b983?date=2020-03-24
The request can be sent using GCClient
by running
// You can get your displayName by using the getUserInfo method;
const displayName = '22f5f84c-de9d-4ad6-97f2-201097b3b983';
const url =
'https://connect.garmin.com/modern/proxy/wellness-service/wellness/dailyHeartRate/';
const dateString = '2020-03-24';
GCClient.get(url + displayName, { date: dateString });
and will net you the same result as using the provided way
GCClient.getHeartRate();
Notice how the client will keep track of the url's, your user information as well as keeping the session alive.
Limitations
Many responses from Garmin Connect are missing type definitions and defaults to unknown
. Feel free to add types by opening a pull request.
