New User: Unable to get any data in Grafana

[abhi8569]

Hello all,

I am running this using docker but unable to see any data.
I have already downloaded historical data using the steps described in the repo. I can as well find the downloaded fit files in the "fit_filestore" folder.

This is the docker compose I am using:

services:
  garmin-fetch-data:
    restart: unless-stopped
    image: thisisarpanghosh/garmin-fetch-data:latest
    container_name: garmin-fetch-data
    user: root # Runs the container as root user, uncomment this line if you are getting permission issues which can't be resolved otherwise. For this, you also need to change the below volume mount from './garminconnect-tokens:/home/appuser/.garminconnect' to './garminconnect-tokens:/root/.garminconnect' to ensure the token files persist during container rebuilding. 
    depends_on:
      - influxdb
    volumes:
      - /volume1/Docker/Garmin-Grafana/garmin-grafana/garminconnect-tokens:/root/.garminconnect # (persistent tokens storage - garminconnect-tokens folder must be owned by 1000:1000) - should be './garminconnect-tokens:/root/.garminconnect' instead if you are using using user: root
      - /volume1/Docker/Garmin-Grafana/garmin-grafana/fit_filestore:/root/fit_filestore
    environment:
      - INFLUXDB_HOST=influxdb
      - INFLUXDB_PORT=8086 # Influxdb V3 maps to 8181 instead of 8086 of V1
      - INFLUXDB_USERNAME=xxxxxxx # user should have read/write access to INFLUXDB_DATABASE (Required for influxdb 1.x, ignore for influxdb 3.x - set the 3.x specific variables)
      - INFLUXDB_PASSWORD=xxxxxxxx # (Required for influxdb 1.x, ignore for influxdb 3.x - set the 3.x specific variables)
      - INFLUXDB_DATABASE=GarminStats
      - GARMINCONNECT_IS_CN=False # Set this to True if you are in mainland China or use Garmin-cn (Default False)
      #####################################################################################
      - GARMINCONNECT_EMAIL=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # optional, read the setup docs. (remove or comment out this line altogether if not used)
      - GARMINCONNECT_BASE64_PASSWORD=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # optional, must be Base64 encoded, read setup docs. (remove or comment out 
      - KEEP_FIT_FILES=True # Stores the FIT files (downloads and saves them) when set to True - read docs for more details
      # - ALWAYS_PROCESS_FIT_FILES=True # Enables processing FIT files even if GPS data is not present in it when set to True, default False
      - USER_TIMEZONE=Europe/Berlin # Can hardcode user's timezone - must be a valid TZ identifier like Europe/Budapest without quotes, fetches timezone automatically and dynamically on each run if set to empty (default) - Read docs

Hi Abhishek, I thought I will check and reply later but I had to write this immidiately. Please change your Garmin connect password at once. Consider it compromised. I can remove it from the logs which you pasted in base 64 format, but it will be available in edit history. I suggest you change your password IMMIDIATELY before this gets any attention.

I will check and respond when I have more time. Thank you.

[abhi8569]

I have provided the incorrect base 64 password.

[abhi8569]

Thank you very much for pointing that. I just realized i did not redacted my email.

[arpanghosh8453]

There is edit history in Github for incremental changes. It an still be accessed from the edit history

[arpanghosh8453]

@abhi8569

I see you changed the exposed ports. Do you understand the implications?

Have you tried open grafana at the right port? That is http://localhost:30186 instead of localhost:3000

[abhi8569]

Yes, I do know that. I am accessing the correct instance of Grafana.

[arpanghosh8453]

If you are using the default script for setup with non default configuration, then I think you need to figure out how to connect the running influxdb instance to the grafana. The data is in influxdb, make sure there is only one and not two running. And check the manual configuration section in the readme for connecting influxdb to grafana.
