Auto-detect Region

[CrazyMarvin]

At the moment the user needs to select the correct endpoint manually.
Do you have an idea how to automate it, @KiSa04?

Actually, they disabled their region-based restrictions a few days ago.
You can remove everything that has to do with region -- calling "https://api.libreview.io/llu" now redirects to the correct one

So, in this file, you should use your 'BASE_URL' instead of 'getBaseUrl', that function is useless now.

But the reason why your app is crashing isn't this: it crashes when it reaches the "connections" API. you need to grab this value during login:

{ "data" : { "user" : { "id" : "xxxxxxx-xxx-xxxx-xxx-xxxxx"

encode it with sha256 and pass it as a header when calling 'https://api.libreview.io/llu/connections'

Example:
Account-Id: 0728de934781f1d5a1a775df21ce6e0aa6b7192e43b9a19b4ccef5bt2c528921

Just to let you know that for germany, the region is still active, so you need to add a fallback.

if the login (using https://api.libreview.io/llu) returns a "region" value ( {"status":0,"data":{"redirect":true,"region":"de"}}), then you need to login again with "https://api-"+ data.region + "libreview.io/llu"

this is how my fallback code looks like (using C#):

if (JsonLogin.data.region != null) { region = $"-{JsonLogin.data.region}"; loginUrl = $"https://api{region}.libreview.io/llu/auth/login";

Thanks for the information. 👍
I will keep the regions for now but may remove them later.

Hi, and massive thanks for what seems to be a great project!

I'm in South Africa, and of course my region is not listed. Is there a workaround that you might suggest?

I don't even know what the regions are there for. I'm a programmer and I'd like to try this desktop application, but I'd also like to perhaps fork from DiaKEM to make something like a SugarPixel, but open sourced and easy to put together. My very young child is T1 and it would be an incredible asset to all those that care for him if there were a better early warning and notification system. In turn, ours is a poor country and most parents of T1 kids are far below the economic line to afford a SugarPixel - something that helps parents in general would be just wonderful.

Many thanks!

Thanks for your kind words.

I suppose that South Africa does not have an own endpoint.
We might add a new global endpoint which should cover South Africa. 🤔

Since I am not using the official Libre 3 Android app anymore because I moved from ICT to CSII with CamAPS I got an Nightscout instance and tried the Nightscout Clock.

Many thanks!

You're welcome!

What do you think about creating a new endpoint Global that directly calls https://api.libreview.io/llu, @KiSa04 & @fperera123?

Wow, @CrazyMarvin - hats off for the quickest github response I've ever seen!

Thanks - a global endpoint would be appreciated for sure. It's not just us; Libre 2 is in wide use around the world and not covered by the endpoint list.

In fact (and rather cynically), I think Libre 2 is being peddled widely in the 3rd world because it has been deprecated by the Libre 3. Many of us believe that Abbott is trying to ditch stock while it still has some use, although their support for it is not great because their attention is on the Libre 3 userbase.

I have checked out the Nightscout Clock #wicked and I loved it! However, the setup for Nightscout is extremely technical and most Average Parents just can't get all of that organized, even though the benefits are terrific. I'm keen to make a clock that just scours the data like a LibreLinkup follower - no server instance, no fiddling. Well, that's the dream.

Cheers!

Can you test if the global endpoint https://api.libreview.io/llu works for you?

The endpoints should work for Libre 2 and 3 in the same way.

Let us know when your clock is ready. 🥳

As i explained before, that should be the standard call! the login call at the global API (https://api.libreview.io/llu) returns one of three results:

1. Failed Login
2. data response structure (it's the case for South Africa)
3. region redirect on a JSON structure (e.g. "region": "eu")

you should check which does it return. If it returns a region, then you need to call "https://api-{region}.libreview.io/llu" and proceed as usual.

that avoids asking the user for its region
