Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Critical
Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.
Data Model Gaps
Data Model Gaps
7. Sleep model loses detail
models.py:6-13
models.py:6-13
— the
Sleep
table only stores
start
,
end
,
duration_minutes
. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.
8.
HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.
Code Quality
Code Quality
9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.
10.
demo.py
depends on
readchar
not in
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
—
demo.py
imports
readchar
which isn't listed, so
pip install -r requirements.txt
won't cover it. Either add it or keep a separate
requirements-dev.txt
.
Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Docker isn't accessible from this shell session, so I can't query the live DB. But I can answer fully from the code.
UI
UI
Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.

is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.

— the

. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.

rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.

9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.
10.
demo.py
depends on
readchar
not in

requirements.txt
requirements.txt
—
demo.py
imports
readchar
which isn't listed, so
pip install -r requirements.txt
won't cover it. Either add it or keep a separate
requirements-dev.txt
.
Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Critical
Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.

Service Overview
Service Overview
This is a
Garmin Connect data pipeline
— a FastAPI service that:
Authenticates to Garmin Connect using your credentials
Fetches health/fitness data (sleep, steps, heart rate) via the unofficial
garminconnect
Python library
Stores it in a local PostgreSQL database
Runs on Docker (port
8007
)

Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Critical
Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.
Data Model Gaps
Data Model Gaps
7. Sleep model loses detail
models.py:6-13
models.py:6-13
— the
Sleep
table only stores
start
,
end
,
duration_minutes
. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.
8.
HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.
Code Quality
Code Quality
9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.
10.
demo.py
depends on
readchar
not in
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
—
demo.py
imports
readchar
which isn't listed, so
pip install -r requirements.txt
won't cover it. Either add it or keep a separate
requirements-dev.txt
.
Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Docker isn't accessible from this shell session, so I can't query the live DB. But I can answer fully from the code.
UI
UI
Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.

1. Credentials exposed in

.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.
Data Model Gaps
Data Model Gaps
7. Sleep model loses detail
models.py:6-13
models.py:6-13
— the
Sleep
table only stores
start
,
end
,
duration_minutes
. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.
8.
HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.
Code Quality
Code Quality
9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.
10.
demo.py
depends on
readchar
not in
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
—
demo.py
imports
readchar
which isn't listed, so
pip install -r requirements.txt
won't cover it. Either add it or keep a separate
requirements-dev.txt
.
Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Docker isn't accessible from this shell session, so I can't query the live DB. But I can answer fully from the code.
UI
UI
Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.

Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Critical
Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.

4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.

7. Sleep model loses detail

sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.

rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.

9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.

requirements.txt
—
demo.py
imports
readchar
which isn't listed, so
pip install -r requirements.txt
won't cover it. Either add it or keep a separate

Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Once the service is running, open in browser:

The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Docker isn't accessible from this shell session, so I can't query the live DB. But I can answer fully from the code.
UI
UI
Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.
Database
Database
PostgreSQL
(
garmin-db
, exposed on port

Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Critical
Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.
Data Model Gaps
Data Model Gaps
7. Sleep model loses detail
models.py:6-13
models.py:6-13
— the
Sleep
table only stores
start
,
end
,
duration_minutes
. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.
8.
HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.
Code Quality

9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.

—
demo.py
imports
readchar

requirements-dev.txt
.
Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in

Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions

Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.

7. Sleep model loses detail

. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.

HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.

9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.
10.

depends on
readchar
not in
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
—
demo.py
imports
readchar
which isn't listed, so
pip install -r requirements.txt
won't cover it. Either add it or keep a separate
requirements-dev.txt
.
Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.

Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Docker isn't accessible from this shell session, so I can't query the live DB. But I can answer fully from the code.
UI
UI
Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.

Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Critical
Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.
Data Model Gaps
Data Model Gaps
7. Sleep model loses detail
models.py:6-13
models.py:6-13
— the
Sleep
table only stores
start
,
end
,
duration_minutes
. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.
8.
HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.

Service Overview
Service Overview
This is a
Garmin Connect data pipeline
— a FastAPI service that:
Authenticates to Garmin Connect using your credentials
Fetches health/fitness data (sleep, steps, heart rate) via the unofficial
garminconnect
Python library
Stores it in a local PostgreSQL database
Runs on Docker (port
8007
)

Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Critical
Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.
Data Model Gaps
Data Model Gaps
7. Sleep model loses detail
models.py:6-13
models.py:6-13
— the
Sleep
table only stores
start
,
end
,
duration_minutes
. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.
8.
HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.
Code Quality
Code Quality
9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.
10.
demo.py
depends on
readchar
not in
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
—
demo.py
imports
readchar
which isn't listed, so
pip install -r requirements.txt
won't cover it. Either add it or keep a separate
requirements-dev.txt
.
Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.

db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today

ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.

4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.

sleep_processing.py

Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.

Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Docker isn't accessible from this shell session, so I can't query the live DB. But I can answer fully from the code.
UI
UI
Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.

Service Overview
Service Overview
This is a
Garmin Connect data pipeline
— a FastAPI service that:
Authenticates to Garmin Connect using your credentials
Fetches health/fitness data (sleep, steps, heart rate) via the unofficial
garminconnect
Python library
Stores it in a local PostgreSQL database
Runs on Docker (port
8007
)

Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Critical
Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.
Data Model Gaps
Data Model Gaps
7. Sleep model loses detail
models.py:6-13
models.py:6-13
— the
Sleep
table only stores
start
,
end
,
duration_minutes
. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.
8.
HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.
Code Quality
Code Quality
9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.
10.
demo.py
depends on
readchar
not in
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
—
demo.py
imports
readchar
which isn't listed, so
pip install -r requirements.txt
won't cover it. Either add it or keep a separate
requirements-dev.txt
.
Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Docker isn't accessible from this shell session, so I can't query the live DB. But I can answer fully from the code.
UI
UI
Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.

This is a
Garmin Connect data pipeline
— a FastAPI service that:
Authenticates to Garmin Connect using your credentials
Fetches health/fitness data (sleep, steps, heart rate) via the unofficial
garminconnect
Python library
Stores it in a local PostgreSQL database
Runs on Docker (port
8007

Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Critical
Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.
Data Model Gaps
Data Model Gaps
7. Sleep model loses detail
models.py:6-13
models.py:6-13
— the
Sleep
table only stores
start
,
end
,
duration_minutes
. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.
8.
HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.
Code Quality
Code Quality
9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.
10.
demo.py
depends on
readchar
not in
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
—
demo.py
imports
readchar
which isn't listed, so
pip install -r requirements.txt
won't cover it. Either add it or keep a separate
requirements-dev.txt
.
Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

UI
Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.

4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.
Data Model Gaps

7. Sleep model loses detail
models.py:6-13
models.py:6-13
— the
Sleep
table only stores
start
,
end
,
duration_minutes
. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.
8.
HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.

9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.
10.
demo.py
depends on
readchar
not in
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
—
demo.py
imports
readchar
which isn't listed, so
pip install -r requirements.txt
won't cover it. Either add it or keep a separate
requirements-dev.txt
.
Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.

1. Credentials exposed in

ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103

Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.

Service Overview
Service Overview
This is a
Garmin Connect data pipeline
— a FastAPI service that:
Authenticates to Garmin Connect using your credentials
Fetches health/fitness data (sleep, steps, heart rate) via the unofficial
garminconnect
Python library
Stores it in a local PostgreSQL database
Runs on Docker (port
8007
)

Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Critical
Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.
Data Model Gaps
Data Model Gaps
7. Sleep model loses detail
models.py:6-13
models.py:6-13
— the
Sleep
table only stores
start
,
end
,
duration_minutes
. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.
8.
HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.
Code Quality
Code Quality
9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.
10.
demo.py
depends on
readchar
not in
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
—
demo.py
imports
readchar
which isn't listed, so
pip install -r requirements.txt
won't cover it. Either add it or keep a separate
requirements-dev.txt
.
Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Critical
Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.
Data Model Gaps
Data Model Gaps
7. Sleep model loses detail
models.py:6-13
models.py:6-13
— the
Sleep
table only stores
start
,
end
,
duration_minutes
. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.
8.
HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.
Code Quality
Code Quality
9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.
10.
demo.py
depends on
readchar
not in
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
—
demo.py
imports
readchar
which isn't listed, so
pip install -r requirements.txt
won't cover it. Either add it or keep a separate
requirements-dev.txt
.
Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.

Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Critical
Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.
Data Model Gaps

7. Sleep model loses detail

— the

,
duration_minutes
. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.
8.
HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.

9. Session management is fragile
main.py:35-44
main.py:35-44
—
get_client()
re-logs in based on wall-clock time (1 hour TTL), but Garmin's session can expire for other reasons (rate limiting, server-side logout). There's no retry on
401
errors.
10.
demo.py
depends on
readchar
not in
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
requirements.txt
—
demo.py
imports
readchar
which isn't listed, so
pip install -r requirements.txt
won't cover it. Either add it or keep a separate
requirements-dev.txt
.
Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Once the service is running, open in browser:

Summary:
The core pipeline works, but the biggest wins are: (1) add read endpoints for the DB, (2) fix duplicate-insert issue, (3) wire in
sleep_processing.py
for richer data, and (4) add a backfill endpoint for historical data.

Docker isn't accessible from this shell session, so I can't query the live DB. But I can answer fully from the code.
UI
UI
Only FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI
— no custom frontend exists.
Once the service is running, open in browser:
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/docs
— interactive Swagger UI, lets you call all endpoints
http://<your-nas-ip>:8007/redoc
— alternative docs view
That's the only UI. There's no dashboard, no charts, no frontend.

Now I have a complete picture of this project. Here's the full overview:
Service Overview
Service Overview
This is a
Garmin Connect data pipeline
— a FastAPI service that:
Authenticates to Garmin Connect using your credentials
Fetches health/fitness data (sleep, steps, heart rate) via the unofficial
garminconnect
Python library
Stores it in a local PostgreSQL database
Runs on Docker (port
8007
)

Start it:
Copy code to clipboard
cd /volume2/docker/garmin-connector
docker-compose up -d
Available endpoints:
Endpoint
Description
GET /fetch-today
Fetch today's sleep, steps & HR and store in DB
GET /sleep-raw?date_str=2025-05-20
Get raw Garmin sleep payload (not stored)
GET /garmin-methods
List all available Garmin
get_*
methods
GET /garmin-call?method=get_stress_data&date=2025-05-20
Call any Garmin getter by name

Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Issues & Improvement Suggestions
Critical
Critical
1. Credentials exposed in
.env
Your Garmin password is stored in plaintext in
.env
.env
— add
.env
to
.gitignore
immediately if this repo is ever pushed to git.
2. Duplicate data on repeated runs
main.py:58-93
main.py:58-93
—
fetch_and_store()
blindly
db.add()
s every time it runs. Calling
/fetch-today
twice creates duplicate rows for the same date. You need an upsert pattern (
ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
or check-before-insert).
3. Scheduler time comment is wrong
main.py:101-103
main.py:101-103
— the code schedules at
hour=15, minute=25
but the comment says "03:00". Pick one and fix both.
Missing Functionality
Missing Functionality
4. No read endpoints for stored DB data
There are no
GET /sleep
,
GET /steps
,
GET /heartrate
endpoints. You can write data to the DB but have no API to query it back — you'd have to connect to Postgres directly.
5. No backfill endpoint
There's no way to fetch and store data for a past date range via the API. A
GET /fetch?date=2025-05-01
or
GET /backfill?start=2025-01-01&end=2025-05-25
endpoint would be useful.
6.
sleep_processing.py
is never used
sleep_processing.py
sleep_processing.py
is an impressively detailed utility that builds minute-by-minute sleep timelines with SpO2, HRV, stress, body battery, respiration — but it's never called anywhere. It should either be wired into a
/sleep-processed
endpoint or removed.
Data Model Gaps
Data Model Gaps
7. Sleep model loses detail
models.py:6-13
models.py:6-13
— the
Sleep
table only stores
start
,
end
,
duration_minutes
. It drops sleep stages (deep/REM/light/awake), SpO2, HRV, respiration — all the interesting data.
sleep_processing.py
already parses all of this.
8.
HeartRate
rows volume
Storing per-minute HR readings means ~1440 rows/day. Consider storing only the summary (resting HR, max HR, average) unless you actually need the per-minute data downstream.
