Thanks for the suggestions. At a quick glance, grafana looks to be perfect for the visualization aspect (at least in terms of capabilities). Glad to see there are free utilities for that and I might not have to resort to chicken scratch html/pyplot :-) I have yet to dig into influxDB still…


Deterrent is right. That graph is terrifying! I feel their frustration regarding getting data from Android apps. Part of what got me started thinking about this was when I realized that the years of data I entered into my fitness pal was suddenly locked behind a subscription service :-( Thanks for sharing!


Personal data… historian?
Hi all (First Lemmy post, yay!) Does anyone have recommendations for a way to capture, archive and visualize arbitrary data in one convenient location. I'm talking about arbitrary/misc. stuff like electricity usage, gas usage, body weight, spending, mileage, habit tracking etc... Essentially looking for a super solution that can be easily interfaced with, has convenient methods of browsing, filtering, and visualizing, and can (obviously, based on post location) be self hosted. I currently use mint, beestat, Google Fit, Samsung Health and probably a few others as my trackers/monitors of my personal and home data, but I've always been curious about finding a solution where I have complete control over my personal data once it's captured by the various sources, assuming I can get my hands on it via exporting manually or otherwise. For background, My experience level is pretty minimal. I have unRAID running on an old desktop PC, hosting a file share and gitlab container. I can scrape python programs together easy enough, but databases and web tech will take some learning. I'm interested in ways any of you intelligent folks may have figured out how to manage your personal data! Thanks in advance for sharing!
