Rainmeter-Nightscout displays glucose-monitoring information retrieved from a Nightscout server. Its documented behavior centers on repeatedly fetching the latest reading rather than a described collection of desktop widgets. The source specifies mmol/l readings and a five-second retrieval interval, but does not describe visual styling.

What this skin includes

  • Retrieves glucose-monitoring data from the Nightscout REST API.
  • Requests the latest glucose value every five seconds.
  • Supports mmol/l only.
  • Requires a Nightscout server address and user token.
  • Uses the JsonParser 1.0 plugin, included through the Rainmeter installer.

Setup and limits

Download the newest release and install it with the Rainmeter installer. Edit the .ini variables TOKEN and DOMAIN to supply your Nightscout user token and server address. Create a Nightscout user with the Readable role for the token. Alternatively, copy the files manually and load them with Rainmeter.

This skin depends on access to a Nightscout REST API, a server domain, a user token, and JsonParser 1.0. Only mmol/l is supported. The source specifies that the token needs only the Readable role. Current Windows-build compatibility has not been independently verified; this research did not install or execute the skin.
