Add remaining health connect sensors

[dshokouhi]

This request will be used to track the remaining sensors we can add according to: https://developer.android.com/health-and-fitness/guides/health-connect/plan/data-types as I am sure we will get more requests and quite possibly more will be added in the library

• Active calories burned (Implement Health Connect Sensors #4452)
• Basal body temperature (Add 5 more health connect sensors #4836)
• Basal metabolic rate (Add 10 more health connect sensors #4803)
• Blood glucose (Add several more health connect sensors #4785)
• Blood pressure (Add 10 more health connect sensors #4803)
• Body fat (Add several more health connect sensors #4785)
• Body temperature (Add 10 more health connect sensors #4803)
• Body water mass (Add 5 more health connect sensors #4836)
• Bone mass (Add 10 more health connect sensors #4803)
• Cervical Mucus (not sure how this will work based on the docs)
• Cycling pedaling cadence
• Distance (Add several more health connect sensors #4785)
• Elevation gained (Add several more health connect sensors #4785)
• Exercise session
• Floors climbed (Add several more health connect sensors #4785)
• Heart rate (Add heart rate sensor for Health Connect #4784)
• Heart rate variability rmmsd (Add 5 more health connect sensors #4836)
• Height (Add 10 more health connect sensors #4803)
• Hydration (should be aggregate based on data available in docs) (Add 5 more health connect sensors #4836)
• Intermenstrual bleeding
• Lean body mass (Add 10 more health connect sensors #4803)
• Menstruation flow
• Menstruation period
• Nutrition (will require extra care as its probably lots of sensors in it of itself)
• Ovulation test
• Oxygen saturation (Add 10 more health connect sensors #4803)
• Planned exercise
• Power
• Respiratory rate (Add 10 more health connect sensors #4803)
• Resting heart rate (Add 5 more health connect sensors #4836)
• Sexual activity
• Skin temperature
• Sleep session (duration) (Add several more health connect sensors #4785)
• Speed
• Steps cadence
• Steps (Add several more health connect sensors #4785)
• Total calories burned (Implement Health Connect Sensors #4452)
• VO2 max (Add 10 more health connect sensors #4803)
• Weight (Implement Health Connect Sensors #4452)
• Wheelchair pushes (probably a good candidate for aggregate based on data available in the docs)

Several of these are in progress in: #4803

• Basal metabolic rate
• Blood pressure diastolic
• Blood pressure systolic
• Body temperature
• Bone mass
• Height
• Lean body mass
• Oxygen saturation
• Respiratory rate
• VO2 max

Exercise session (and related metrics) will need to have discussion around how it works or if it makes sense to add as records will be delayed since the app does not get notified for it. The Wear OS activity state sensor is better fit IMO but only applies for those watches. If we do add it the state as type will require a force update so we can update back to back records of the same type. End time will be unique but may not display well in the frontend without some effort.

For cycle tracking might be best to hold off until we get a user request so we can discuss what data is best to add

skin temp requires extra consideration in how to report it, do we go by average or latest record?

remaining sensors should also be requested and discussed before we add them

I'm glad this is in progress, waiting for menstruation tracking like kid for Christmas.

The latest update with the new metrics was pretty cool. Can't wait for calories consumed to be added.

I absolutely need the body temperature sensor exposed in HA!
I'd say use average over the last 10min or so.

I'm excited about this work! Should I be able to see the glucose readings from health connect in the companion app yet?

unfortunately we were only approved for a small set of permissions, we plan to go again for some of the original sensors in sometime to see if we can qualify for it. We are not confident we will be approved despite previous approval.

Thank you. Really appreciate the work. Buzz kill they are so strict on approving this.

Has there been any consideration for a version that includes Google features that are blocked by Google?

Might make the pipeline more complex, since it would require changing the manifest for play store releases to remove permissions, and ideally would include an alert for a new version to download manually. But HA is in a unique position where the Play Store isn't necessarily a barrier to user acquisition (and that's not even necessarily a strict goal)

I know there is already a separate FDroid version that is missing location features.
