Python script for pulling utilization data from the Fit Star website, paired with Grafana dashboard for visualization.
Instead of setting this up yourself, you can also simply access an instance of the dashboard I host myself here. I also intend make the InfluxDB that feeds this publicly accessible when I find the time.
The script uses Selenium to automatically retrieve the utilization data from the Fit Star studio websites (e.g. https://www.fit-star.de/fitnessstudio/muenchen-neuhausen). This has certain implications for its dependencies and usage.
Selenium requires a compatible browser together with the corresponding driver. A good choice is Chromium, which can be installed with the driver by:
sudo apt install -y chromium chromium-driverThe required Python modules are listed in the
requirements.txt
file. To install them execute:
sudo python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txtTo fetch the data for all studios in Munich and insert them into a given InfluxDB the script is used as follows:
./fitstar-utilization.py --host influxdb.example.net --port 8086 --ssl --verify-ssl --username admin --password supersecretpassword --filter muenchenFor further information refer to the -h/--help option.
Note that because of Selenium requiring a browser, the script needs to run in
the presence of the graphical session. In case you run this over SSH or as
cron job, you need to set the DISPLAY variable. You can use the w command
to list active X sessions.
I myself run the script on a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B in an XRDP session.
The Grafana dashboard can be directly imported into Grafana with its
ID 17200, the corresponding webpage is:
