`# FitME-gRPC
Rewrite of the FitME REST version to a gRPC infrastructure with a strong emphasis on middleware, tracing, and logging integration. By sharing proto definitions and containerizing services, this project achieves flexible inter-service communication while ensuring proper context propagation, error handling, and telemetry across the stack.
FitME-gRPC is a rewrite of the original FitME REST API into a gRPC-based service architecture. The project is built with a strong emphasis on robust middleware management, comprehensive tracing and logging, and seamless integration with modern observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Tempo). It aims to improve scalability and maintainability while providing enhanced telemetry and debugging capabilities.
- Backend:
- Language: Go (Golang)
- Communication: gRPC with shared proto definitions
- Middleware: Custom middleware layers wrapping OpenTelemetry for tracing, logging, and metrics
- Database: PostgreSQL
- Caching: Redis
- Telemetry:
- Tracing: Stdout, Jaeger, Zipkin, Datadog, and OTLP collector
- Metrics: Prometheus, Datadog, and OTLP collector
- Logs: OTLP collector (integrated with Loki)
- Containerization: Docker (with Kubernetes deployment for production)
- Other Tools:
- PDF builder: Maroto
- CSV/Excel builder: (see Domonda for inspiration)
-
gRPC Infrastructure: Fully containerized and using gRPC for high-performance communication between services.
-
Middleware Management: Ensures proper ordering for context propagation, panic handling, logging, and metrics collection. Uses wrappers around OpenTelemetry middleware to guard against breaking changes.
-
Observability: Integrated with multiple telemetry backends including Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Tempo, and Jaeger.
-
Data Exporters: Support for PostgreSQL, Redis exporters, and integration with message systems for notifications (e.g., Kafka).
- Exporters: Stdout Jaeger Zipkin Datadog OpenTelemetry (OTLP) Collector
- Importers: OpenTracingShim
- Exporters: Prometheus Datadog OpenTelemetry (OTLP) Collector
- Importers: SwiftMetricsShim Logs Exporters: OpenTelemetry (OTLP) Collector (Integrated with Loki for log aggregation)
- Proto Sharing: A shared proto directory is used for service communication across the architecture.
- Containerized Services: Docker Compose is used for local testing, while Kubernetes is used in production for scalability and high availability.
- Middleware Pipeline: Middleware ensures correct ordering of interceptors for tracing, logging, and metrics (e.g., Prometheus and OTEL interceptors).
Local Testing:
- Tempo:
kubectl port-forward svc/tempo 4317 -n monitoring
- Grafana:
kubectl port-forward svc/grafana 3000:80 -n monitoring
Prometheus:kubectl port-forward prometheus-prometheus-kube-prometheus-prometheus-0 9090 -n monitoring
Production Deployment: - All telemetry services (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Tempo, etc.) are deployed on Kubernetes.
- Ingress configuration should be updated in production to point to the proper Grafana/Prometheus endpoints.
- Leaderboard Feature Concept: Open the user platform to allow regular users to see progress, plans, and achievements.
- Privacy: Consider anonymizing data and providing customizable, public or private leaderboards.
- Customization: Allow users to define goals (absolute, relative, custom) and compare progress with friends or community members.
FitSynch expands the FitME concept by integrating personal training management with AI-powered meal planning and shopping assistance. Key Components:
- User Management for Trainers: Manage clients, assign workout/meal plans, and communicate via messaging.
- Workout & Meal Plans: Create personalized workout plans with video tutorials and customizable meal plans with macro breakdowns.
- Ingredients, Recipes, and Shopping List Generator: Build a database of nutritional data, share recipes, and automatically generate shopping lists.
- AI-Powered Assistance:
- Meal Plan AI: Suggest meals based on preferences and dietary restrictions.
- Shopping AI: Provide calorie breakdowns, healthier alternatives, and cost-saving suggestions.
- Fitness Insights: Analyze user progress and recommend workout adjustments.
- Trainer Dashboard: A centralized dashboard for trainers to manage clients, view progress, and handle payments.
Handling workouts, diet, and tracking, adding mental health tools would create a comprehensive health & wellness platform.
- Guided Meditation & Breathing Exercises
- Integrate AI-powered meditation sessions (e.g., suggest sessions based on user stress levels).
- Use HRV (Heart Rate Variability) analysis (if they wear a smartwatch) to detect stress.
- Personalized daily mood check-ins → AI suggests stress-relief activities.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Tools
- AI-based journaling assistant (users log thoughts, AI suggests coping strategies).
- Daily affirmations & gratitude journaling with AI insights.
- Chatbot for low-level mental health support (before professional intervention).
- Sleep Tracking & Optimization
- Sync with wearables (Oura, Fitbit, Apple Watch, Whoop) to track sleep cycles.
- AI suggests optimal sleep schedule & bedtime routines.
- Integration with blue light blocking & relaxation sounds before sleep.
- AI-powered Stress & Recovery Score
- Uses HRV, workouts, diet, and sleep to generate a daily wellness score.
- Suggests "rest vs. workout" days dynamically based on recovery.
- Tells trainers if a client is overtraining or needs recovery.
With our own AI model, each user can have a personal AI health assistant.
- AI predicts injuries & burnout risk from past workout data.
- AI detects signs of depression based on user activity, journaling & HRV.
- AI analyzes blood test results (users upload results, AI explains trends).
- AI suggests supplements based on diet gaps & training intensity.
- Health & Wellness Challenges
- Weekly steps, water intake, meal tracking challenges.
- Leaderboards with anonymous & public ranking options.
- Rewards like discounts, free sessions, or in-app currency.
-Community & Social Features
- Trainer-led groups for clients (chat, workouts, accountability).
- Workout buddies & accountability partners matching.
- Integration with social media for sharing progress (optional).
TODO web platform?
- YES if want to expand into nutritionists, therapists, doctors, and more trainers.
- NO if keep it strictly fitness-focused, since most users will engage via mobile.
- Dashboard for tracking client progress.
- Scheduling & video calls.
- Billing & subscription management.
- Meal planning (drag & drop UI).
- Workout plan customization.
- In-depth analytics & reports.
- AI-powered daily guidance & tracking.
- Quick workout & meal logging.
- Gamification, social feed & challenges.
Since dealing with fitness + health, deeper biometric tracking would be a killer feature.
- Apple Health, Google Fit, Strava → for workout tracking.
- Oura, Whoop, Fitbit → for HRV & recovery insights.
- Blood test API integration (e.g., InsideTracker) → AI analyzes health markers.
- Auto-Generated Workout Plans & Adjustments
- AI analyzes user progress, soreness, and energy levels.
- Auto-adjusts workout intensity based on recovery.
- "AI spotter" alerts if weight selection seems off.
- Nutritional AI Assistant for Coaches
- AI auto-suggests meal plans based on client's goals & eating habits.
- AI flags possible deficiencies (e.g., lack of protein or iron).
- Auto-generates shopping lists based on meal plans.
- Gyms & Trainers Marketplace

- Users can book sessions directly.
- AI matches trainers to clients based on goals & experience.
- Purpose: Ensure that a meal plan aligns with the user's objective (e.g., maintenance mode should not exceed a specific calorie goal).
- Guidance: Warn users if their meal plan exceeds their objective's calorie goal, allowing for adjustments or confirmations.
- Flexibility: Optionally allow overrides while logging such events for further review.
Grafana: http://localhost:3000 Jaeger: http://localhost:16686 Prometheus: http://localhost:9090 Loki: Use the mapped port (e.g., http://localhost:3100 for API requests) Kubernetes (Production): Follow the Kubernetes deployment manifests and use port-forwarding as outlined in the Deployment & Kubernetes section for accessing services locally.

Go with gRPC. Organize your services by domain—e.g.:
- UserService (handles sign‐up, login, user profiles, roles, friend requests, etc.)
- MessagingService (handles chat, file sharing, or you can split file sharing out)
- NotificationsService (handles push/email notifications, in‐app notifications)
- WorkoutService (exercise sessions, workout plans)
- DietService (meal plans, ingredients, logs)
- TrainerService / GymService (manages trainer–client relationships, gym data, classes, etc.)
- Each service exposes gRPC endpoints.
- Real-Time Communications (Chat & Video Calls)
Implement chat over gRPC streams (bidirectional streaming) or use WebSockets. Store conversations/messages in PostgreSQL (or a NoSQL store).
Typically done with a signaling server that sets up a WebRTC or other real-time protocol. Do signaling over gRPC streams or a separate WebSocket. Actual video/voice runs peer-to-peer (or via SFU/MCU if group calls).
You will want an internal mechanism (e.g., a small pub/sub or events) to generate notifications for “new message,” “new plan,” “friend request,” etc. Store them in a notifications table, with a “read/unread” flag. Send push/email/SMS via third-party providers (SendGrid, Twilio, etc.).
Typically store actual files in an object store (S3, GCS, etc.). In DB, store only references/URLs and metadata (filename, size, content type, etc.). Integrations for:
SMS invites (Twilio, etc.). Social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/TikTok) if you want to share a link to invite. Live streaming to Instagram/TikTok typically requires those platforms’ official APIs. Usually you’d generate an RTMP URL/stream key from the social platform, then push your video feed to it.
