This is a small script which retrieves meditation data from insighttimer.com and posts the data points to your beeminder goal, so that you can easily track how often you're meditating.

beesight.py only counts 1 point per day (meditated or not), as my aim is to track frequency rather than overall minutes.

It is intended to be run on a cron, picking up new datapoints and posting them to beeminder.

Copy default_config.ini to config.ini and fill in your insighttimer.com and beeminder credentials.

Your beeminder auth token can be found at this URL when logged in: https://www.beeminder.com/api/v1/auth_token.json

To run:

python beesight.py

If you see the message "ImportError: no module named requests", you'll need to install the python requests library by running:

pip install requests

If you hit any issues installing requests, further instructions are here: http://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/user/install/

beesight.py currently subtracts one from the dates it gets from beeminder, because beeminder returns JST (Japanese Standard Time) 01:00 on (correct_day + 1) in my timezone. If you're in another timezone, this may cause your dates to be off by one.
