Tools for acquiring and analyzing Oura API data.
Oura is a wearable ring for monitoring sleep, activity, and workouts.
The oura_ring
module can be installed via pip:
pip install oura-ring
In order to use the Oura client, you must first generate a personal_access_token
for your Oura account.
It is best practice to store this value in a .env
file:
# Oura credentials
PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN="<PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN>"
You can use python-dotenv
to load the enviroment variables for use in code:
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()
pat = os.getenv("PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN") or ""
Once the environment variables are loaded, an OuraClient
object can be created:
from oura_ring import OuraClient
# Using a traditional constructor
client = OuraClient(pat)
...
# Using a context manager
with OuraClient(pat) as client:
...
There are nine different API requests that OuraClient
can make. Full Oura API v2 documentation can be found on Oura's website.
