Strava Maps

Python application for visualizing and finding the titles of a user's Strava activities on an interactive map. The project allows the user to authenticate with the Strava API, fetch their activities' data, and generate a map based on that data.

Install Dependencies

To install the required libraries:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Or run:

python3 setup.py

Configure Strava API Access

1. Create an application in the Strava Developer Portal.

2. Save your Client ID and Client Secret provided by Strava.

3. Replace the placeholders for Client ID and Client Secret in strava_credentials.json. Alternatively, you can set these as environment variables as STRAVA_CLIENT_ID and STRAVA_CLIENT_SECRET.

Usage

To run the program:

python3 main.py

• Follow the link provided in the terminal to authorize the application.
• Once authorized, strava_token.json will store your access token for future use.
• The program will then give you feedback on the retrieving of your activites. This might take a while depending on the amount of activities.
• Finally, the program should generate the map, in the form of an html file, and open it in your default browser.

Configuration

• strava_credentials.json: Stores your Strava API credentials. You need to configure this.
• strava_token.json: Stores the access and refresh tokens. This file will automatically be created after you have run the program.

Requirements

This project requires Flask, folium, polyline, and requests.

These, with their correct versions, can be installed using:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Of course, you also need to create a Strava app.
