- # Compass
-
- Compass is a GPS tracking server that stores data in [flat files](https://github.com/aaronpk/QuartzDB).
-
- ## Setup
-
- In the `compass` directory, copy `.env.example` to `.env` and fill in the details. Install the dependencies with composer.
-
-
- ## API
-
- After you create a tracking database, you can visit the database's settings page to get a read or write token. These tokens are used with the API to update or retrieve data.
-
- ### Writing
-
- To write to a database, make a POST request in JSON format with the following keys:
-
- `POST /api/input`
-
- * locations - a list of GeoJSON objects
- * token - the write token for the database
-
- The GeoJSON objects must have at least one property, "timestamp", which is can be any value that can be interpreted as a date. The object can have any additional properties you wish.
-
- The open source iOS [GPS Logger](https://github.com/esripdx/GPS-Logger-iOS) will send data in this format by default.
-
- ### Reading
-
- To read a database, make a GET request with the following keys:
-
- `GET /api/query`
-
- * token - the read token for the database
- * date - specify a date to return all data on that day
- * tz - timezone string (e.g. America/Los_Angeles) which will be used to determine the absolute start/end times for the day
