OpenGlucose: continued

I started working on the UI to display the results:

openglucoseIt is made using a GtkApplicationWindow containing a WebkitWebView, the content is made with HTML/CSS/JS with jquery and the chart is made using jqplot.

To make testing easier, I also added a dummy device that has random data, it can be enabled by setting OPENGLUCOSE_DUMMY_DEVICE=1 in your env.

A lot more work is needed, but that’s a start.

New project: OpenGlucose

Hello there,

I recently got diagnosed with a diabetes type 1. Like all diabetics, I got a glucometer device that comes with a windows/mac closed-source application. That’s clearly not acceptable for a freedom lover! So here is my new challenge: reverse-engineer the USB protocol of my Abbott FreeStyle InsuLinx device, and write an open source Linux application for it.

And here it is: https://github.com/xclaesse/OpenGlucose

So far it only fetch the bare minimum information from the device and print them in the terminal. More GUI/features will come later.

If you’re a geek diabetic, your help is welcome!
