OwnTracks Import

Imports GeoJSON location records to OwnTracks Recorder through HTTP. Initially developed to migrate data from Dawarich to OwnTracks Recorder.

Requires Dart runtime.

Features

• Defaults to phone for device when tracker_id is not provided
• Removes device_tracker. prefix from tracker_id field if exists
• By default waits for 2 seconds before each request to avoid hitting OpenCage free tire API rate limits (Used by Recorder for reverse geocoding)
• Tries to fix wrong battery levels
• Can continue importing the same file starting from the provided record number

Anti-features

• Errors handling is bad
• Can't authenticate
• Probably will fail with self-signed certificate
• Tested only on GeoJSON exported by Dawarich

Usage

dart bin/owntracks_import.dart -s <GeoJSON file path> -d <Recorder IP address with protocol and port> -u <user name> -v
