MMM-Fitbit2
-
MMM-Fitbit2 builds upon MMM-Fitbit (which appears to be abandoned), and displays (even more of) your Fitbit data!
It is allows you to display the following data (progress tracked against goal unless mentioned)
- Steps taken
- Calories burnt
- Distance walked
- Active minutes
- Floors climbed
- Resting heart rate (progress is always 100% as there is no goal)
- Remaining water to consume (progress currently not displaying correctly as it approaches zero rather than starts from zero)
- Remaining calories available to consume (progress currently not displaying correctly as it approaches zero rather than starts from zero)
- Time asleep
- Weight (progress currently not displaying correctly as it does not yet consider your starting weight)

This project was a fairly significant re-write, with its long-term vision of being able to display data just as complicated as on the official Fitbit dashboard, where possible. See the README for more information!
This module is currently in need of testing - I am withholding adding it to the Wiki page until it has been used by multiple people for at least a few days without issues.

@Vizulize said in MMM-Fitbit2:
Resting heart rate (progress is always 100% as there is no goal)
you can let us set a goal in config.

@sdetweil I’m not sure that that makes sense. If you have a target resting heart rate of 55, but you’re at 60, what is your progress %?
-
@Vizulize 9% over 1-(60/55), 54 out of 55 would be 2% under 1-(54/55),
absolute value, rounded to 2 decimal places, * 100
if number is negative, you are over target and positive u are under target -
Progress % is from 0-100. You have a start point, an end point, and are between the 2. “9% over” and “2% under” are not records of progress.
If I recorded 9% over as 109%, and rounded to 100%, it would indicate that your progress towards your target resting heart rate (RHR) is 100%. 2% under would mean that you are at 98% “complete”.
They may be percentages, but progress is absolute, and your calculations are relative. It would make more sense to keep the RHR data and create a better representation of it (e.g. a histogram - which is what Fitbit actually does).
-
@Vizulize as youve shown, not everything has a ‘progress’ number. but can still have a target
-
@sdetweil Ok, I see what you’re saying. I’ve added it to the extending functionality GitHub project board. Seems quite minor though.
-
@Vizulize Those icons would look nice in color too.
-
@Vizulize I’m setting this up and almost everything was smooth except when I get to the client secret. It won’t let me paste, or type anything to move forward. Any suggestions?
-
@Fr8Trayne It’s a password entry step - it won’t show up in the terminal. Perhaps that is not clear enough, or just isn’t necessary! Just paste and hit ENTER to continue.
-
Ah thank you! I was confused there. I’ll give it another go and let you know how it turns out.
-
@Vizulize So I clicked continue and it gets stuck at Opening web browser… I’ve tried doing it a few times now, but it’s not moving forward. Advice?
-
@Fr8Trayne Are you SSH’d in to your machine? You need to be on the machine locally, so that the browser can open, and you can log in to Fitbit in the browser.
This is all great feedback though - thanks for being patient!
-
@Vizulize no problem. I’m great at finding the problems 😉. I’ll have to connect directly to the Raspberry pi and try again. I’ll let you know how it goes.
-
Hello,
When I’m asked to enter the “Client Secret”, in ssh (on the pi of the MagicMirror), I cannot type or paste anything.
What’s the solution ? -
@mattx38 - Read two messages above your post. You must work directly on the Pi in order to make it through the Fitbit login process. You can’t do this through an SSH connection.
-
@bhepler I did it directly from the terminal of the MMM Pi, sorry for my wrong explaination.
-
Hello,
I’ve installed MMM-Fitbit2 according the instructions.
Unfortunately on the MM screen the module says “Loading…” instead of showing any symbols.
Could someone help me? -
@chsp - You will probably need to check the logs and see if there are any error messages.
First, get an SSH connection to your Pi (assuming it’s a Pi) and type
pm2 log 0. Look for any errors. If you see none, point a web browser at your Pi’s IP address and use that to pull up the mirror’s interface. Press F12 to open the developer’s window and look in the Console tab for any errors.That should get you started.

Hi, the module works fine …:clapping_hands_medium-light_skin_tone:
