Hi all,
I was trying to figure out how to implement this feature.
The idea I got comprised to step:
1 extracting the list of locations from the data base. I thought the location
is the first point of the record. In order to extract the information the gpx
files has to be parsed which takes a while (minutes). Then you can reduce the
locations using the Gpx method _distance_between_points.
2 presenting the data on google maps or OSM. Once you have a list of location
points it easy to create a map.
To reduce the time of parsing gpx files I considered two options:
1 Create a new table in the database. This table would contain the record_id,
latitude and longitude so the first time the locations are extracted from the
gpx files but they would be available from then on. This way no database
porting is required.
2 Change the gpx object so the parsing is stopped after getting the first point
while maintaining the current functionality.
I was also considering how to unit tests the new databases queries and the
solution I found is to create a directory within pytrainer/test which contains
a database with a known state so the tests could run on that.
I don´t really know how to integrate all this with the GUI. My idea right now
is to add a button on the week, month, year and totals tabs. This button would
open a new window showing the locations on the map pretty much like the
existing map tab.
Finally is the issue of accessing the list of activities from a location is
something I can´t figure out how to implement. Can you click on the map and get
an event?
What do you think?
