Hi,

Damien is working on some nice screens for new users and one of the things that would be really cool to do is offer to import data automatically from other applications...

... But to do that we need to know where other applications store their data?

If you use any of the following, can you respond and let us know where they store data:

- Poweragent
- Garmin Connect
- WKO+
- Sporttracks

I suspect it differs by O/S and version of the software.

If you use any of the above on any O/S can you check and let us know where data is stored?

Thanks,
Mark

I have three of the four on your list. I'm running windows 7 Home
premium 64bit

Power agent
C:\Users\username\Documents\CycleOps\Username.power\data

Garmin Connect
I have garmin training center as garmin connect is only web based.
C:\ProgramData\GARMIN\Training Center\TCAcct The files are stored as a
.bin file

WKO+
C:\Users\username\Documents\TrainingPeaks\WKO\Data\user folder name

Windows:
data is stored in the users "home" directory under
\My Documents\CycleOps\$USER.power\data\
(where $USER is the name chosen in Poweragent)

files are stored like this (for Joule 1.0 at least):

11/25/2012 05:19 PM 45,727 089acf74-a4d3-4fd1-aaec-3d34a875074c.gz
11/22/2012 10:55 AM 1,060 105f8987-b711-4300-b053-84af24d5faae.gz
12/16/2012 07:38 PM 16,626 235b618c-6eea-40e4-bb51-b6adf868cba2.gz

BTW: is there a chance to apply my patch to read the date/time
from those files? That makes importing them much easier.

PS: I use this little script to simplify importing;
it uncompresses and renames the files:

for i
do
b=`basename $i .gz`
c=$b.csv
[ -s $c ] && continue
gunzip $i
mv -i $b $c
done

Power Agent isn't officially supported under Linux anymore, but I still keep the last released version around and use it from time to time.  For reference it stores gzipped .csv files in:

~/Documents/CycleOps/$User.power/data
