That sounds like an awesome idea, actually the data is stored for every user separately depending on the used api token or when you login and do a data import. I will create a feature request for it.
But bear in mind, reitti is not meant to be a real-time tracking app. At the moment, data is processed every 10 minutes.
I have no clue if a raspberry will handle it. There a a couple of services involved to make it fast, but they are then another burden like RabbitMQ. Which make ingesting data instantaneous but you need extra processing power to handle the queues. It all comes with a tradeoff.
For size, there is mainly the PostGIS DB. I just checked and my db is around 800 MB for roughtly 8 1/2 Years of data.
Photon (the reverse geocode enabled in the compose file) is another beast. For Germany it takes 14 GB of storage while running, if you let PARALLELL updates enabled you can double that every time the index is updated. But you can remove that from the compose file and rely on external Geocoders. It is described in https://github.com/dedicatedcode/reitti?tab=readme-ov-file#reverse-geocoding-options
Let me know how it worked out. I am deploying it to my server via docker without an problems, but maybe they are some quirks i missed. :D
Thanks otter, I tried to have a historical look. Like going to the past and revive some memories. Hope it worked out. I am actually pretty happy with it.
Reitti on its own does not run on your phone. It relies on external apps to track your GPS location like GPSLogger or Owntracks. They will increase the battery consumption but I think it is bearable. I personally have setup GPSLogger to fetch every 30 seconds a GPS location and then sends it every hour to reitti. With that i do not see that more power usage. Currently starting to test how the power drain is with a 15 seconds interval.
Hello @Zwuzelmaus@feddit.org, i usually use GPSLogger for Android to track my location during the day and this periodically sends the data to reitti whenever i am back at home. I have no idea if you switch off location services what happens on the GPSLogger side of the chain. If it still be able to access GPS I see no problem, if not than this sadly will break the usecase for reitti.
It relies on a consistent GPS tracking data to be able to do its thing
Let me know how it works out for you. If you have the gpx files, you can simply import them inside the settings menu.
