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.

@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!
