Description

A simple program to store and monitor daily measured blood sugar of one person.

I made this for my wife because she have gestational diabetes during her pregnancy. That's why it's very simple. It has 3 features:

• Store measured blood sugar of 1 specific person
• After storing a blood sugar level, inform if the current level is above threshold. For the threshold, check this reference: View of Diabetes in pregnancy: management of diabetes and its complications from preconception to the postnatal period (NG3) | British Journal of Diabetes
• Back-up the blood sugar data just in case

This is created initialy just for my wife so unless I think of any other helpful features for her, there won't be any updates.

Usage

• Create 3 collections in your MongoDB database: daily_levels, threshold, users. Create documents in threshold and users collection for the person you would like to monitor their blood sugar level
• Create a configuration json file in configuration directory. For reference, check file example.json.
• Set an environmental variable named glucose_env with your new configuration filename (without json extension)
• Use command pip install requirements.txt
• Use command python3 daily_update.py to store blood sugar level and to see if that level is normal or not:
  • You can use option -d <YYYY-MM-DD> to store blood sugar level of a specific date. Default value without this option is today.
  • You can use option -k <option_number> to specify the time you measure the blood sugar level. Without this option, a prompt will show up for you to check the option again and choose the corresponding number.
• Use command python3 daily_backup.py to back-up all blood sugar data of the monitored person into a csv file in backup_data directory
