Experimental Medtronic CareLink Client in Java

Java library, which can be used for retrieving data from Medtronic CareLink of online CGM and insulin pump device data uploads (Guardian Connect, MiniMed 7xxG) inside and outside of US. Originally it was started as a Guardian Connect CGM data from CareLink to Nightscout alternative for Nightscout MiniMed Connect, because Medtronic started to block requests from Heroku. Later it turned out that the core Nightscout MiniMed Connect logic can be also used for 7xxG pumps with some modifications based on the US online CareLink Connect webapp (770G is still working). The US data retrieval logic was also working outside the US with the 780G pumps too, although the online CareLink Connect webapp outside US doesn't support the new generation pumps. Finally the code was extended to handle the 7xxG devices too both inside and outside the US.

The development is in a very early stage!

• Medtronic Guardian Connect CGM
• Medtronic MiniMed 770G pump
• Medtronic MiniMed 780G pump
• Other Medtronic MiniMed 7xxG pumps???

• Login to CareLink and provide access token for CareLink API calls
• Some basic CareLink APIs: get user data, get user profile, get country settings, get last 24 hours, get recent data from CareLink Cloud
• Wrapper method for getting data uploaded by Medtronic BLE devices of the last 24 hours
• CareLink Client CLI

• CareLink MFA is not supported!!!
• Notification messages are in English

• CareLink account with MFA NOT ENABLED!:
  • Guardian Connect CGM outside US: patient or care partner account
  • Guardian Connect CGM inside US: not tested yet! (possibly a care partner account)
  • 7xxG pump outside US: care partner account (same as for Medtronic CareLink Connect app)
  • 7xxG pump inside US: care partner account (same as for Medtronic CareLink Connect app)
• Runtime: Java 1.8
• External libraries used:
  • Kotlin 1.4
  • OkIO 2.8
  • OkHttp 4.9
  • Gson 2.8
  • Commons CLI 1.4

CareLinkClient client;
RecentData recentData;

client = new CareLinkClient("carelink_username", "carelink_password", "carelink_country_code");
if(client.login()) {
    recentData = client.getRecentData();
}

java -jar carelink-client.jar -u carelink_username -p carelink_password -c carelink_country_code -d

java -jar carelink-client.jar

CareLink data download core logic is based on the Nightscout MiniMed Connect to Nightscout
