4. Updated Files

🎯 FEATURES IMPLEMENTED

User Generation

generateTestUsers(n_users: int = 5) -> List[str]
  • Generates 5+ test users with diverse health profiles
  • Profiles: athlete, sedentary, diabetic-risk, active
  • Each user has:
    • Unique user ID (format: test_user_1, test_user_2, etc.)
    • Random height (1.5m - 1.9m)
    • Random weight (50kg - 100kg)
    • Baseline health characteristics per profile

30-Day Data Simulation

simulateMonthData(user_id: str) -> None
  • Generates realistic daily health metrics for 30 days
  • For each day:
    • sleep: 4-9 hours (profile-dependent)
    • steps: 1,000-12,000 steps (profile-dependent)
    • glucose: 70-250 mg/dL (profile-dependent)
    • heart_rate: 50-120 bpm (profile-dependent)
  • Patterns are realistic:
    • Athletes: high steps, stable glucose
    • Sedentary: low steps, higher glucose
    • Diabetic-risk: fluctuating glucose
    • Random variations + trends simulate real behavior

Insight File Generation

saveInsightsToFile(user_id: str, insights: Dict) -> str
  • Saves insights to .txt files
  • Format: insights_<user_id>.txt
  • Content includes:
    • User ID and timestamp
    • Health Score (0-100)
    • Insights (list)
    • Risks (list)
    • Recommendations (list)

Report Generation

generateSimulationReport(user_ids: List[str]) -> Dict
  • Generates summary report with:
    • Number of users created
    • Number of files generated
    • Timestamp
    • List of user IDs

🏗️ ARCHITECTURE

Data Flow:

generateTestUsers()
  → creates user profiles in database
simulateMonthData()
  → generates 30 daily metrics per user
generateInsights()
  → analyzes data for insights/risks
saveInsightsToFile()
  → saves to insights_<user_id>.txt

🎨 DESIGN HIGHLIGHTS

  1. Profile-Based Realism

    • Each profile has baseline health characteristics
    • Data varies realistically within profile constraints
    • Trends and random variation simulate real patterns

  2. Modular Services

    • Simulation service fully decoupled from routes
    • Can be used independently or via API
    • Easy to extend with new profile types

  3. In-Memory Persistence

    • Uses existing database module
    • Structured like Firestore for future migration
    • Ready for real DB integration

  4. File Export

    • Generates human-readable .txt reports
    • One file per user with full insights
    • Easy to batch-import or archive

  5. Comprehensive Testing

    • Unit tests (direct service calls)
    • API tests (endpoint verification)
    • Integration tests (full workflow)
