In my opinion GPX parsing should be used for file import only and we should not be storing GPX files internally. I would go for something along the lines of option 1 above - migrate all GPX data into the database so it is queryable. > 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. There are two issues with this approach: 1. you should not commit binary files to version control 2. unit tests should not require I/O. If you want to write automated tests for database queries you are better off using an in-memory database and setting up the data programatically. > I don´t really know how to integrate all this with the GUI.

I think the way the UI is structured currently it is very difficult to find a sensible way to integrate this functionality so what you have suggested is probably good enough for now. > 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? I have implemented a generic GTK widget which allows you to receive events from an embedded web page. I plan on using this for the manual route entry UI since the existing map integration is inadequate.
