stravacli
Command-line client for Strava
Installation
Requires Python 3. Uses hozn/stravalib to interact with Strava using its REST-based API v3.
Install with:
$ pip3 install https://github.com/dlenski/stravacli/archive/master.zip
...
$ stravaup
usage: stravaup [-h] [-c] [-P] [-E ENV] [-p] [-t {.tcx,.gpx,.fit}] [-x]
[-T TITLE] [-D DESCRIPTION] [-A ACTIVITY_TYPE]
[activities [activities ...]]
stravaup: error: specify either activity files or -c/--stdin (but not both)
Application authorization
Authorizing a command-line application to use the Strava API is somewhat tedious; their API is geared towards web-based apps running on a central server.
(If you run a stravacli utility without an access token in ~/.stravacli
already, it will direct you to this README.)
- If you already have a Strava API
access token, put it in~/.stravacli:
[API]
access_token = f00f00f00f00f00f00f00f00f00f00f00f00f00f- If not, create your own Strava API application (here) or use one that you already
have, and put the application's client ID and secret in
~/.stravacli:
[API]
client_id = 1234
client_secret = f00f00f00f00f00f00f00f00f00f00f00f00f00fThe first time you run stravaup, it will launch a web
browser to display Strava's application authorization page, and a
small web server on localhost to capture the authorization code output
from that page. (See QueryGrabber.py
for the implementation of this very minimal web server.)
Uploading activities
$ stravaup [OPTIONS] [activity files]Activity files must have TCX, GPX, or FIT extensions (or same followed
by .gz). Files will be automatically compressed with gzip —
if not already in such format — to reduce upload time. If no
activity files are specified, the default is to read from stdin, so
stravaup.py can be used as a pipe, and to autodetect the file type
based on its contents.
If -x/--xml-desc is specified, the program will look for top-level
<name> and
<desc> tags in GPX
files, and use those for the Strava activity title and description. In
TCX files, it looks for the <Activity><Notes> tag and uses the first
line from that field for the activity name, and subsequent lines for
the activity description.
You can also specify title and description from the command line with
the -T/--title and -D/--desc options.
Activities will be uploaded to Strava and opened in your desktop web
browser (unless -P/--no-popup is specified).
Options
usage: stravaup [-h] [-c] [-P] [-E ENV] [-p] [-t {.tcx,.gpx,.fit}] [-x]
[-T TITLE] [-D DESCRIPTION] [-A ACTIVITY_TYPE]
[activities [activities ...]]
Uploads activities to Strava.
positional arguments:
activities Activity files to upload (plain or gzipped .tcx, .gpx,
.fit)
optional arguments:
-h, --help show the help message and exit
-c, --stdin Read activity file from standard input
-P, --no-popup Don't browse to activities after upload.
-E ENV, --env ENV Look for ACCESS_TOKEN in environment variable rather
than ~/.stravacli
Activity file details:
-p, --private Make activities private
-t {.tcx,.gpx,.fit}, --type {.tcx,.gpx,.fit}
Force files to be interpreted as being of given type
(default is to autodetect based on name, or contents
for stdin)
-x, --xml-desc Parse name/description fields from GPX and TCX files.
-T TITLE, --title TITLE
Activity title
-D DESCRIPTION, --desc DESCRIPTION
Activity description
