python-fitparse

Important Note

This version of the library is deprecated and it is currently being rewritten on the ng branch.

For now, the master branch can still be considered stable. Updates to come.

About

Here's a Python library to parse ANT/Garmin .FIT files. These are files produced by several newer Garmin cycling computers, notably the Garmin Edge 500 and Edge 800.

The FIT (Flexible and Interoperable Data Transfer) file protocol is specified by ANT (http://www.thisisant.com/) and an SDK is available for download at http://www.thisisant.com/pages/products/fit-sdk.

I'm currently using version 1.1 of the SDK to develop this library (FitSDK1_2.zip).

Sample Usage

The package is by no means mature, but here's one sample usage for now.

#!/usr/bin/env python

# Sample usage of python-fitparse to parse an activity and
# print its data records.


from fitparse import Activity

activity = Activity("/path.to/activity-file.fit")
activity.parse()

# Records of type 'record' (I know, confusing) are the entries in an
# activity file that represent actual data points in your workout.
records = activity.get_records_by_type('record')
current_record_number = 0

for record in records:

    # Print record number
    current_record_number += 1
    print (" Record #%d " % current_record_number).center(40, '-')

    # Get the list of valid fields on this record
    valid_field_names = record.get_valid_field_names()

    for field_name in valid_field_names:
        # Get the data and units for the field
        field_data = record.get_data(field_name)
        field_units = record.get_units(field_name)

        # Print what we've got!
        if field_units:
            print " * %s: %s %s" % (field_name, field_data, field_units)
        else:
            print " * %s: %s" % (field_name, field_data)

    print
