A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Hey everyone!

I'm excited to introduce Reitti, a location tracking and analysis application designed to help you gain insights about your movement patterns and significant places—all while keeping your data private on your own server.

Core Capabilities:

  • Visit Tracking: Automatically recognizes and categorizes the places where you spend time, using customizable detection algorithms
  • Trip Analysis: Analyzes your movements between locations to understand how you travel whether by walking, cycling, or driving
  • Interactive Timeline: Visualizes all your past activities on an interactive timeline with map and list views that show visit duration, transport method, and distance traveled

Photo Integration:

  • Connect your self-hosted Immich photo server to seamlessly display photos taken at specific locations right within Reitti's timeline. The interactive photo viewer lets you browse galleries for each place.

Data Import Options:

  • Multiple Formats Supported: Reitti can import existing location data from GPX, GeoJSON, and Google Takeout (JSON) backups
  • (Near) Real-time Updates: Automatically receive location info via mobile apps like OwnTracks, GPSLogger or our REST API

Customization:

  • Multi-geocoding Services: Configurable options to convert coordinates to human-readable addresses using providers like Nominatim
  • User Profiles: Customize individual display names, password management, and API token security under your own control

Self-hosting:

  • Reitti is designed to be deployed on your own infrastructure using Docker containers. We provide configuration templates to set up linked services like PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ and Redis that keep all your location data private.

Reitti is still early in development but has already developed extensive capabilities. I'd love to hear your feedback and answer any questions to tailor Reitti to meet the community's needs.

Hope this sparks some interest!

Daniel

Is there any way of forcing it to rebuild places and trips? Somewhere along the line, most of mine disappeared. It's still building new ones just fine as GPS logger adds real time data, but most of my historical stuff is gone.

The actual data is there, and it shows up fine on the maps for each day, but the places/trips/stats etc are mostly empty.

I can't see anything in the logs that might explain it

If you are running Reitti with Docker, you can set the environment variable DANGEROUS_LIFE to true. This will enable a new section in the Settings. There, you can use the button 'Clear and Reprocess'. This will delete all visits and trips and set all raw data points to unprocessed. During the next run, everything will be recalculated. In that settings section, you could also press the 'Start Processing' button if you don't want to wait. Make sure to wait until the success message appears. It can take a while until all data is deleted and switched to unprocessed.
