Read a Google Fit (Google Takeout) export

Source: R/io-googlefit.R
readGoogleFit.Rd

Parses the "Fit" folder of a Google Takeout archive. From "All Data" it reads the granular per-type JSON points – heart rate (heart_rate.bpm) and steps (step_count.delta) – decoding their nanosecond timestamps; from "Daily activity metrics" it reads the daily-summary CSVs (steps, calories, distance, average/max/min heart rate).

Usage

readGoogleFit(path, what = NULL, tz = "UTC")

Arguments

path

Directory of the extracted Takeout "Fit" folder (searched recursively), or a file / vector of files.

what

Optional restriction, any of "heart_rate", "steps", "daily".

tz

Time zone for parsed timestamps (default "UTC").

Value

A google_fit object: a list with any of heart_rate, steps (time, value) and daily (per-day summary), plus path/tz.
