Gadgetbridge data dashboard (lemmy.world)

Hey all. Unemployed and looking for something fun/interesting to work on lol

I use gadgetbridge to connect to a smart ring to track some basic health data, and while having everything on the phone is OK, I much prefer doing/viewing things from my PC. I thought maybe having some kind of self hosted dashboard/site displaying data gathered by gadgetbridge could be cool, but what do you guys think? Anything more interesting that could be done with the database that it can export on a schedule? I've also considered having gadgetbridge as one of several sources, but I'm not sure how many other privacy conscious options are out there.

I'm thinking of just leaving the transferring of the database to other programs, would that be acceptable? I already have gadgetbridge export every 2hrs and use syncthing to get it onto the NAS.

Would appreciate any thoughts, or if you think it's unnecessary even.

Does gadgetbridge integrate with home assistant?

I would love to see the dashboard there.

I can check it out - don't actually have a home assistant setup yet but yeah would that be better?

https://github.com/Progaros/GadgetbridgeMqtt This can be used to broker GB data to different services. As a Home Assistant junkie I'd go this route to visualize the info.. (given the time, so many projects!)

Oh cool! Just gonna add that real quick.... falls down rabbit hole again

So this gets the data to home assistant - does home assistant then handle visualising it in a nice way or how does it work?

[–] Hominine@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Home Assistant has a couple of plugins in the community store (HACS) that can help visualize the data in addition to it's own native cards. I'm for sure going to tinker with this later but, like the other poster said, it's a rabbit hole.
