Over the last two months, I developed wanderer. It is a self-hosted alternative to sites like alltrails.com or in other words a self-hosted trail database. It started out more as a small hobby project to teach myself some new technologies but in the end, I decided to develop it into a fully-fledged application.
Core Features:
- Manage your trails
- Extensive map integration and visualization
- Share trails with other people and explore theirs
- Advanced filter and search functionality
- Create custom lists to organize your trails further
- Chique design with a dark and light theme
- Fully mobile compatible
wanderer is completely open-source. You can find the GitHub repo here: https://github.com/Flomp/wanderer
wanderer is still under active development so if you encounter any bugs/errors or have suggestions please let me know here or open an issue on GitHub.
You must log in or register to comment.
Any chance to pack it into a single container instead of three? Would make it easier to work with unraid.
Database is rarely, if ever bundled into the app container, unless it’s SQLite.
Yes, unraid community apps are a bit unconventional in this regard, everything needed should be in one container here.
How do I change port to something else? 3000 is already used by Gitea :)
With docker you can simply change the port mapping in the compose file
I’ve done that, all containers report healthy, but still can’t connect. I’ve tried changing ORIGIN to ip;port, domain: port, still nothing. Really weird.
No that port is used by Homepage. B)
Come on man.
These may be answered elsewhere, but like some other interested people in this post, I fully intend on trying to load a copy of this when I get home from vacation.
What methods/devices do you use to upload/sync the data? Other than a regular smart phone, were you able to use other GPS enabled devices like garmin or apple smart watches?
And system requirements?
You can use whatever device you prefer. In the end, you simply need a GPX file that you upload through the web UI or the API. I am planning to support other formats like KML soon, though.
System requirements should be quite low. On the first startup you will need ~1GB of RAM. After that, the whole stack sits at around 100MB on my machine.
Oh KML support!
Looking forward to that!.
;)
I’ll use it for running though. Hmm. I’m using KML on my running sections. Is it possible to get some stats and graph for pinpointing and an average?
Currently wanderer supports visualising duration, distance, elevation gain and speed. Support for heart rate is planned. It can display a graph (the one you see in the screenshot) and also calculates an average.
That’s great. Thank you very much for your work.
This was very helpful, you are an amazing human.
I use a banglejs 2 as a smart phone is way to bulky to carry while running. The bangle 2 is a JavaScript based watch with a GPS receiver.
Soooo cool! If it could get from gpx the dates when activities where made, autoimport multiple gpx files, bug fixing, tableview (small overview from all activities) it will be my Strava killer…
Great work! Thx
But why the Docker :(((
Read just a bit further and they explain how to install from source, although I don’t see why you would go through the hassle
You can also install it directly on your machine: https://github.com/Flomp/wanderer/wiki/Installation#from-source
It’s just much more tedious imo.
Because using a containerization system to run multiple services on the same machine is vastly superior to running everything bare metal? Both from a security and a ease-of-use standpoint. Why wouldnt you use docker?
Wow, this looks super! 🙌
This is an excellent use case for a self hosted service, since location data is frequently used for nefarious purposes.
Strava has continued to enshittify the app to the point that I’m getting ads after every activity. Anyway, I decided to delete it after yesterday’s run and will keep an eye on this project. Thanks!
Strava has ads now? I use NextDNS on my devices so assuming this is filtering out their ads.
Much like Facebook, you can’t use a DNS blocker when the ads are being served by and from the website itself. There are some scripts you can run in the desktop browser that help a little but they’re usually not maintained, and Strava is constantly changing things, and they don’t work on the app.
Fittrackee has been what I use instead of Strava. Also FOSS.
Thanks for the recommendation, looking into it as well.
I removed my account a few years ago when they moved a bunch of features behind their paywall. I’m perfectly fine just using Garmin’s built in ‘news feed’ and tracking without giving my data to another company.
You mean after the price hike they also hiked the number of ads? I canceled when they hiked the price and managed to get it down to the old price a few months later, so I renewed for the personal heatmap. Looks like I’m definitely canceling again. I doubt they’ll give me the price break twice anyway.
Baking ads into a timeline like Strava and some other apps do has to be the worst app trend ever.
If you just like the personal heat map then checkout grrrmin_heatmap. It’s a pretty flexible python script for generating them.
This appears to be what I’ve been looking for. I can’t wait to try it. Thanks for sharing.
Strava lost me when they jacked up prices while simultaneously not providing a dark mode and continuing to neglect their paying users’ requests to acquire some semblance of control over their feed.
I’m a mountain biker and I like to see my friends’ mountain bike rides. Instead my feed is jam-packed full of dog-walkers, Trainer Road and Zwift ads, and suggested/recommended “challenges” and “clubs”.
I’m done. Yet another platform relegated to “post and ghost”.
Wow. I aspire to be as knowledgeable as you one day. This motivated me.
Super cool thank you for making this! I just got a bike for the first time in over 20 years and I’m ready to explore my area. I have been trying out those other apps like all trails and trail forks, everything being so paywalled is frustrating.
The bike I just got, it’s a beaut. A Clem Smith Jr. L from Rivendell Bike Works. I’m loving just scoping out parts and things but it’s a super great bike already.
I look forward to trying this out and thanks again!
Amazing!
This is very nice :) I was working on a proof of concept similar to this to have a quick search functionality for FrankenJura (german hiking database) but it was lost in a drawer due to lack of time 😁 Great work and thanks for sharing it :)
Happy to help. If you can get a dump of the database it should be quite easy to import it into wanderer via the API 👍
If I recall correctly, I couldn‘t find API endpoints back then and had to browse/prse the pges based on the regions and the links on the landing pages 😅
I tried Wanderer few days ago and I did find it very nice, yet quite buggy.
I was forced to update the page a second time before being able to do something, for an example using the menu.
But other than that, I find Wanderer very nice! Just miss seeing mainly how fast I was travelled in km/h. The statistics and details provided in workout-tracker1 is absolutely amazing! If you add such details into your project, that would be awesome!
Speed statistics were added in v0.2.0. Hopefully also with some bugfixes.
Very nice :) Me like! But the bug is still there when you have clicked on a trail on the home page. The page just scrolls up to the top and you have to update the page to see the trail.
That’s strange, I never had that happen. If you have the time could you please open an issue on GitHub?
Very interesting, I like the screenshots! Will definitely check this out.
Would be nice with activity pub support for sharing planned and recorded trails. Cone to think of it. Does it make that distinction? Planned vs recorded? How about a planning, route finding mode?
Kudos to your project so far!
Wanted to ask this. Is it difficult to implement activity pub? That would be awesome. It looks beautiful
I’m not sure if I understand your question correctly. Do you mean creating a trail from scratch on the map without recording it before? That is indeed on my roadmap.
There are hiking trails (which are marked with signs) where you can find the gps tracks online.
At least that is the case in Germany.
That and sharing it with other users through the ActivityPub protocol (what Lemmy uses)
I see. I’m unfamiliar with the protocol, but sharing trails is definitely on the roadmap. So I will look into it!
Unless Pocketbase adds support for ActivityPub, you are probably better off just adding a share to Mastodon, Pixelfed etc. button in the frontend and let an external software handle this.
