+# Fit File Faker - a FIT File editor and uploader
+
+This repo contains a tool that will edit [FIT](https://developer.garmin.com/fit/overview/) files
+to make them appear to come from a Garmin device (Edge 830, currently) and upload them to Garmin Connect
+using the [`garth`](https://github.com/matin/garth/) library. The FIT editing
+is done using Stages Cycling's [`fit_tool`](https://bitbucket.org/stagescycling/python_fit_tool/src/main/) library.
+
+The primary use case for this is that [TrainingPeaks Virtual](https://www.trainingpeaks.com/virtual/) (previously 
+[indieVelo](https://indievelo.com/)) does not support (AFAIK, Garmin does not allow) automatic uploading to
+[Garmin Connect](http://connect.garmin.com/). The files can be manually uploaded after the fact,
+but since they are not "from Garmin", they will not be used to calculate Garmin's "Training Effect",
+which is used for suggested workouts and other stuff. By changing the FIT file to appear to come
+from a Garmin device, those features should be enabled.
+
+Other users have reported using this tool to edit FIT files produced by [Zwift](https://www.zwift.com/)
+prior to uploading to Garmin Connect so that activities on that platform will count towards Garmin Connect
+badges and challenges (see [1](https://forums.zwift.com/t/garmin-disabled-zwift-rides-badges/528612) and
+[2](https://forums.garmin.com/apps-software/mobile-apps-web/f/garmin-connect-web/251574/zwift-rides-no-longer-count-towards-challenges)).

+
+## Installation
+
+Requires Python 3.12. If your system python is older than that,
+[pyenv](https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv) or [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) can be
+used to manage locally installed versions.
+
+This tool should work cross-platform on Windows, MacOS, or Linux, though it is primarily
+developed on Linux, so it's possible there are some cross-platform bugs.
+
+### pipx install
+
+If you have [pipx](https://pipx.pypa.io/latest/installation/) installed, a simple
+
+```bash
+$ pipx install fit-file-faker
+```
+
+will install the tool, and make the script named `fit-file-faker` available on your PATH.
+
+### Manual virtual environment
+
+You can also install manually using `pip`. If so, it's best to create a new
+virtual environment:
+
+```bash
+$ python -m venv .venv
+$ source .venv/bin/activate
+```
+
+Then install via pip:
+
+```bash
+$ pip install fit-file-faker 
+```
+
+The pip package installs a script named `fit-file-faker` that should be available on your
+path assuming the virtual envrionment is activated.
+
+### Development install
+
+If you want to install a development version, clone the repo, and use the
+[uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/):
+
+```bash
+$ git clone https://github.com/jat255/fit_file_uploader.git
+$ cd fit_file_uploader
+$ uv sync  # this installs the dependencies
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+The script uses a configuration file named `.config.json` stored in your system's user config directory
+(as determined by the [`platformdirs`](https://github.com/tox-dev/platformdirs) library).
+An example is provided in this repo in `.config.json.example`: 
+
+```json
+{
+  "garmin_username": "username",
+  "garmin_password": "password",
+  "fitfiles_path": "C:\\Users\\username\\Documents\\TPVirtual\\0123456789ABCDEF\\FITFiles"
+}
+```
+
+The best way to fill out this config file is to run the "initial setup"
+option via the `-s` flag, which will allow you to define the three required values interactively:
+
+```bash
+$ fit-file-faker -s
+
+[13:50:02] WARNING  Required value "garmin_username" not found in config                app.py:404

+                      "garmin_username": "username",

+                    }                                                                           
+           INFO     Config file has been written, now run one of the other options      app.py:530
+                    to start editing/uploading files! 
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+The script has a few options. To see the help, run with the `-h` flag:
+
+```bash
+$ fit-file-faker -h
+```
+```
+usage: fit-file-faker [-h] [-s] [-u] [-ua] [-p] [-m] [--dryrun] [-v] [input_path]
+
+Tool to add Garmin device information to FIT files and upload them to Garmin Connect. Currently,
+only FIT files produced by TrainingPeaks Virtual (https://www.trainingpeaks.com/virtual/) and
+Zwift (https://www.zwift.com/) are supported, but it's possible others may work.
+
+
+positional arguments:
+  input_path           the FIT file or directory to process. This argument can be omitted if
+                       the 'fitfiles_path' config value is set (that directory will be used
+                       instead). By default, files will just be edited. Specify the "-u" flag
+                       to also upload them to Garmin Connect.
+
+options:
+  -h, --help           show this help message and exit
+  -s, --initial-setup  Use this option to interactively initialize the configuration file
+                       (.config.json)
+  -u, --upload         upload FIT file (after editing) to Garmin Connect
+  -ua, --upload-all    upload all FIT files in directory (if they are not in "already
+                       processed" list)
+  -p, --preinitialize  preinitialize the list of processed FIT files (mark all existing files
+                       in directory as already uploaded)
+  -m, --monitor        monitor a directory and upload all newly created FIT files as they are
+                       found
+  -d, --dryrun         perform a dry run, meaning any files processed will not be saved nor
+                       uploaded
+  -v, --verbose        increase verbosity of log output
+```
+
+### Basic usage
+
+The default behavior with no other options load a given FIT file, and output a file named `path_to_file_modified.fit`
+that has been edited, and can be manually imported to Garmin Connect:
+
+```bash
+$ fit-file-faker path_to_file.fit
+```
+
+If a directory is supplied rather than a single file, all FIT files in that directory will be processed in
+the same way.
+
+Supplying the `-u` option will attempt to upload the edited file to Garmin Connect. If
+your credentials are not stored in the configuration file, the script will prompt you for them.
+The OAuth credentials obtained for the Garmin web service will be stored in a directory
+named `.garth` in your system's user cache folder (as determined by
+[`platformdirs`](https://github.com/tox-dev/platformdirs)). See the `garth` library's
+[documentation](https://github.com/matin/garth/?tab=readme-ov-file#authentication-and-stability)
+for details:
+
+```bash
+$ fit-file-faker -u path_to_file.fit
+```
+```
+[12:14:06] INFO     Activity timestamp is "2024-05-21T17:15:48"                              app.py:84

+```
+
+The `-v` flag can be used (with any of the other options) to provide more debugging output:
+
+```bash
+$ fit-file-faker -u path_to_file.fit -v
+```
+```

+```
+
+### "Upload all" and "monitor" modes
+
+The `--upload-all` option will search for all FIT files eith in the directory given on the command line,
+or in the one specified in the `fitfiles_path` config option. The script will compare the files found to a
+list of files already seen (stored in that directory's `.uploaded_files.json` file), edit them, and upload
+each to Garmin Connect. The edited files will be written into a temporary file and discarded when the
+script finishes running, and the filenames will be stored into a JSON file in the current directory so
+they are skipped the next time the script is run.
+
+The upload all function can alternatively be automated using the  `--monitor` option, which will start
+watching the filesystem in the specified directory for any new FIT files, and continue running until
+the user interrupts the process by pressing `ctrl-c`. Here is an example output when a new file named
+`new_fit_file.fit` is detected:
+
+```
+$ fit-file-faker --monitor /home/user/Documents/TPVirtual/0123456789ABCEDF/FITFiles

+```
+
+If your TrainingPeaks Virtual user data folder already contains FIT files which you have previously uploaded
+to Garmin Connect using a different method then you can pre-initialise the list of uploaded files to avoid
+any possibility of uploading duplicates (though these files *should* be rejected by Garmin Connect
+if they're exact duplicates). Use the `--preinitialize` option to process a directory (defaults to
+the configured TrainingPeaks Virtual user data directory) and add all files to the list of previous uploaded
+files. After this any use of the `--upload-all` or `--monitor` options will ignore these pre-existing files.
+
+### Already uploaded files
+
+A note: if a file with the same timestamp already exists on the Garmin Connect account, Garmin
+will reject the upload. This script will detect that, and output something like the following:
+
+```bash
+$ fit-file-faker -u path_to_file.fit -v
+```
+```
+[13:32:48] INFO     Activity timestamp is "2024-05-10T17:17:34"                              app.py:85
+           INFO     Saving modified data to "path_to_file_modified.fit"                      app.py:107
+[13:32:49] WARNING  ❌ Received HTTP conflict (activity already exists) for                  app.py:143
+                    "path_to_file.fit"
+```
+

+You can also install manually using `pip`. If so, it's best to create a new
+virtual environment:
+
+```bash
+$ python -m venv .venv
+$ source .venv/bin/activate
+```
+
+Then install via pip:
+
+```bash
+$ pip install fit-file-faker 
+```
+
+The pip package installs a script named `fit-file-faker` that should be available on your
+path assuming the virtual envrionment is activated.
+
+### Development install
+
+If you want to install a development version, clone the repo, and use the
+[uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/):
+
+```bash
+$ git clone https://github.com/jat255/fit_file_uploader.git
+$ cd fit_file_uploader
+$ uv sync  # this installs the dependencies
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+The script uses a configuration file named `.config.json` stored in your system's user config directory
+(as determined by the [`platformdirs`](https://github.com/tox-dev/platformdirs) library).
+An example is provided in this repo in `.config.json.example`: 
+
+```json
+{
+  "garmin_username": "username",
+  "garmin_password": "password",
+  "fitfiles_path": "C:\\Users\\username\\Documents\\TPVirtual\\0123456789ABCDEF\\FITFiles"
+}
+```
+
+The best way to fill out this config file is to run the "initial setup"
+option via the `-s` flag, which will allow you to define the three required values interactively:
+
+```bash
+$ fit-file-faker -s
+
+[13:50:02] WARNING  Required value "garmin_username" not found in config                app.py:404

+```
+
+## Usage
+
+The script has a few options. To see the help, run with the `-h` flag:
+
+```bash
+$ fit-file-faker -h
+```
+```
+usage: fit-file-faker [-h] [-s] [-u] [-ua] [-p] [-m] [--dryrun] [-v] [input_path]
+
+Tool to add Garmin device information to FIT files and upload them to Garmin Connect. Currently,
+only FIT files produced by TrainingPeaks Virtual (https://www.trainingpeaks.com/virtual/) and
+Zwift (https://www.zwift.com/) are supported, but it's possible others may work.
+
+
+positional arguments:
+  input_path           the FIT file or directory to process. This argument can be omitted if
+                       the 'fitfiles_path' config value is set (that directory will be used
+                       instead). By default, files will just be edited. Specify the "-u" flag
+                       to also upload them to Garmin Connect.
+
+options:
+  -h, --help           show this help message and exit
+  -s, --initial-setup  Use this option to interactively initialize the configuration file
+                       (.config.json)
+  -u, --upload         upload FIT file (after editing) to Garmin Connect
+  -ua, --upload-all    upload all FIT files in directory (if they are not in "already
+                       processed" list)
+  -p, --preinitialize  preinitialize the list of processed FIT files (mark all existing files
+                       in directory as already uploaded)
+  -m, --monitor        monitor a directory and upload all newly created FIT files as they are
+                       found
+  -d, --dryrun         perform a dry run, meaning any files processed will not be saved nor
+                       uploaded
+  -v, --verbose        increase verbosity of log output
+```
+
+### Basic usage
+
+The default behavior with no other options load a given FIT file, and output a file named `path_to_file_modified.fit`
+that has been edited, and can be manually imported to Garmin Connect:
+
+```bash
+$ fit-file-faker path_to_file.fit
+```
+
+If a directory is supplied rather than a single file, all FIT files in that directory will be processed in
+the same way.
+
+Supplying the `-u` option will attempt to upload the edited file to Garmin Connect. If
+your credentials are not stored in the configuration file, the script will prompt you for them.
+The OAuth credentials obtained for the Garmin web service will be stored in a directory
+named `.garth` in your system's user cache folder (as determined by
+[`platformdirs`](https://github.com/tox-dev/platformdirs)). See the `garth` library's
+[documentation](https://github.com/matin/garth/?tab=readme-ov-file#authentication-and-stability)
+for details:
+
+```bash
+$ fit-file-faker -u path_to_file.fit
+```
+```

+```
+
+### "Upload all" and "monitor" modes
+
+The `--upload-all` option will search for all FIT files eith in the directory given on the command line,
+or in the one specified in the `fitfiles_path` config option. The script will compare the files found to a
+list of files already seen (stored in that directory's `.uploaded_files.json` file), edit them, and upload
+each to Garmin Connect. The edited files will be written into a temporary file and discarded when the
+script finishes running, and the filenames will be stored into a JSON file in the current directory so
+they are skipped the next time the script is run.
+
+The upload all function can alternatively be automated using the  `--monitor` option, which will start
+watching the filesystem in the specified directory for any new FIT files, and continue running until
+the user interrupts the process by pressing `ctrl-c`. Here is an example output when a new file named
+`new_fit_file.fit` is detected:
+
+```

+```
+
+If your TrainingPeaks Virtual user data folder already contains FIT files which you have previously uploaded
+to Garmin Connect using a different method then you can pre-initialise the list of uploaded files to avoid
+any possibility of uploading duplicates (though these files *should* be rejected by Garmin Connect
+if they're exact duplicates). Use the `--preinitialize` option to process a directory (defaults to
+the configured TrainingPeaks Virtual user data directory) and add all files to the list of previous uploaded
+files. After this any use of the `--upload-all` or `--monitor` options will ignore these pre-existing files.
+
+### Already uploaded files
+
+A note: if a file with the same timestamp already exists on the Garmin Connect account, Garmin
+will reject the upload. This script will detect that, and output something like the following:
+
+```bash
+$ fit-file-faker -u path_to_file.fit -v
+```
+```
+[13:32:48] INFO     Activity timestamp is "2024-05-10T17:17:34"                              app.py:85
