What is the procedure for reviving a dead module?

[sdetweil]

@Vizulize fork the module (upper right button on github page)

now you have a copy of the module, and u can do whatever you want…

if you care, or the author cares, u can submit your changes back (submit a Pull Request to the author)

if not, then don’t…

Of course, you can also release new module with new name like MMM-fitbit2.

[sdetweil]

@Sean true…

[Vizulize]

@sdetweil Obviously this would be an option if it weren’t dead. My question was what to do given the fact that a PR is unlikely to be responded to.

@Sean I think that this is probably the way to go, so I’ll do that.

Thanks!

Yes please do this. I was just looking to add this today, but looks like I’ll wait. If you’re able do you mind adding the water stat as well?

[Vizulize]

@Fr8Trayne I’ve got the following currently supported data:

• Steps Walked (compared to goal)
• Calories Burned (compared to goal)
• Total Distance Walked (compared to goal)
• # of Active Minutes (compared to goal)
• # of Floors Climbed (compared to goal)
• Resting Heart Rate (average for the day)
• Today’s Remaining Water Intake (amount consumed subtracted from goal)
• Today’s Remaining Calories To Consume (amount consumed subtracted from goal)
• Sleep Time (compared to goal)
• Current Weight (last weigh-in, if within the last 30 days)

I need icons for water, food and weight, and some assistance with formatting before I will post it publicly. Perhaps I will create a new forum post for this.

[Fr8Trayne]

This is awesome! Did you add it as a new module?

[Vizulize]

I want to get icons and formatting sorted before I add it publicly. However, you can try it here: https://github.com/m-roberts/MMM-Fitbit2

Also, I need to handle credentials from the config, as currently they are hard-coded into files that are used by the Python Fitbit library. This needs to be handled from the config directly, to support multiple Fitbit accounts on one setup.

@Vizulize keep up the great work! If I had the coding knowledge to help I would definitely lend a hand. This will be an awesome addition to many Magic Mirrors.

I have posted the module here. I am looking for testers!
