Clerk viewers and utils to plan bikepacking events

This repository contains extensions and custom viewers for Clojure's Clerk, designed to help bike tourists and ultra-cyclists to plan multi-day routes.

Traditional tools (Komoot, Strava, Cycle.travel, and so on…) focus on planning the route itself, in some cases (Komoot) providing extra tools to divide the route into multiple same-length days.

rando-planner assumes the user already have a GPX track defined (provided for example by the organizers of a bike event), and let the user plan the daily effort to a higher granularity.

After a data structure called plan is defined, rando-planner provides different types of visualization that can be used to study different strategies to cover the distance.

The visualizations include:

• A map visualization (based on Leaflet) of the route, with markers corresponding to the location reached after each day is completed.
• A schematic diagram of the plan, showing the running count of kilometers, the corresponding elevation reached at each moment, when scheduled pauses will happen, when the Sun rises and sets (WIP), and the total amount of kilometers accumulated every day

Usage

Add rando-planner as a dependency in your project. For example:

{:paths ["src"]
 :deps {org.clojure/clojure {:mvn/version "1.10.3"}
        rando-planner/rando-planner {:git/url "https://github.com/larsen/rando-planner.git"
                                     :git/tag "tagname"
                                     :git/sha "xxxxxxxx"}}}

Then, in a src/user.clj file:

(ns user)

(require '[nextjournal.clerk :as clerk])

(clerk/serve! {:watch-paths ["notebooks" "src"]})

When jacking-in the project a HTTP server should start, answering on port 7777. At this point you can start editing notebooks (I typically use the directory notebooks to store them) using the facilities provided by rando-planner.

Defining a plan

(def plan-start-19
  {:description "Starting on April 19th"
   :gpx "gpx/route.gpx"
   :average-speed 20
   :daily-plans [{:label "Day 1"
                  :date "2024-04-19"
                  :activities [{:start "15:00" :length 6 :type :ride}]}
                 {:label "Day 2"
                  :date "2024-04-20"
                  :activities [{:start "07:00" :length 5 :type :ride}
                               {:start "17:00" :length 3 :type :ride}]}
                 {:label "Day 3"
                  :date "2024-04-21"
                  :activities [{:start "08:00" :length 6 :type :ride}]}]})
