A Home assistant custom component to get your fitness information using Google Fitness API.

To get started put all the files from/custom_components/google_fit_hass/ here: <config directory>/custom_components/google_fit_hass/

Example configuration.yaml:

sensor:  
  - platform: google_fit_hass
    name: hemant
    client_id: !secret google_client_id
    client_secret: !secret google_client_secret
    scan_interval: 300

At the moment, provides following measurements:

    - steps
    - distance
    - time
    - calories
    - weight
    - height
    - sleep
    - heartrate

Sensor is designed to be flexible and allow customization to add new Google Fit dimensions with minimal effort with relative knowledge of Python and Fitness Rest API.

In order to generate your client_id and client_secret, see the prerequisites for Google Calender component: https://www.home-assistant.io/components/calendar.google/#prerequisites

To make sensor work you have to enable Fintness API in your project. In oder to enable Fitness API open Google cloud console: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/library/fitness.googleapis.com and enable API.

It is recommendable to store client_id and client_secret as secret as possible. You can read about it on: https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/secrets/
