This is awesome - been wanting to hack up something similar for a long time.

I am surprised that most similar commercial services tank (Google Health, Microsoft HealthVault.) The issue is they are not providing any visualization tools to be useful, they just store your data.

Thank you, the next step is to build trackers for online data (Facebook, Twitter, GitHub, ...) using their APIs and offline data (using connected hardware).

I too have wanted this for some time (have it on my todo projects list). A tool to track all my web usage, commits (both public and private), laptop sleep time, battery status, temperatures and more. This will make things a lot easier. Thank you!

This is an oblique comment but it reminded me of Ken Thompson's quote:

"Ken Thompson was once asked what he would do differently if he were redesigning the UNIX system. His reply: 'I'd spell creat with an e.'" [1]

I haven't dived into the code much so the answer might be obvious. But, where would this trackers live? Would I have to host them somewhere (I presume they can be written in whatever language I want since you have an API)? Or how would that work.

Do you have any plans on adding a "manual entry" form or something? I'd love to use this to track how many cigarettes I smoke per day for instance (currently I'm using a small app I made myself).

For the moment, the only tracker is the web navigation tracker and it lives as a chrome extension, using the API and jsonp, it sends events to reportr.io or your own instance.

For trackers for Facebook (twitter, github ...), I planned to add a system of addons to add in one click a tracker for the service (which use the Facebook API), but I'm not sure yet what is the best implementation for this. For the moment, you can use the API (or a library : python or javascript) to track events with scripts.

No manual entry yet, but it'll be added soon. But you can write a python script (10 lines of code) to do it for you : https://gist.github.com/SamyPesse/6859673

(Sorry for my english, I'm french).

Pretty cool! It took me a few minutes to figure out how exactly to send data, but a quick php-script did the trick!

Really this is what I have been thinking about building myself, awesome that you actually built it! I think I found a github project that I actually would love and can contribute to!

No worries, I'm Slovenian :)

Cool, I'll definitely keep an eye on this project!

This might be a really good compliment to my project, Huginn. https://github.com/cantino/huginn

Huginn excels at getting data out of various Internet sources and reacting to it. Your project looks like it's great at presenting it.

Send me a note and we can chat about it!

I just contact you using your website form.

^ Would love to hear what comes of this.

Tried installing it in a heroku instance following your directions, sign-ups don't seem to work though. Do you have any ideas?

WebSocket connection to 'ws://[instance].herokuapp.com/socket.io/1/websocket/KqW6Fh7TtpdmUelBVVly' failed: Unexpected response code: 503

Very cool, I'm going to give this a whirl.

Suggestion: if you're up for folks helping you with creating new add-ons, add some documentation on how they can do that. I'm definitely interested in contributing.

Hey Samy,

I signed up on http://www.reportr.io

But now what do I do? Any instructions on what to do next will help.

Check out "Track your web navigation" https://github.com/SamyPesse/reportr#track-your-web-navigati... Or you can use the http api (or the python library) to track events from wherever you want.

This looks pretty rad and a good start to build upon for a completely open-source tracker. Will follow up with some thoughts/contributions after checking it out more.

Thanks :)
