fatsecret（fatsecret 搜索）

FatSecret Nutrition API

Complete integration with FatSecret for food data lookup AND diary logging.

⚠️ Authentication Methods

This skill supports two authentication methods for different use cases:

Which to use?

• Just searching foods? → OAuth2 (simpler, no user login)
• Logging to user's diary? → OAuth1 (requires user authorization)

🚀 Quick Start

1. Get API Credentials

1. Go to https://platform.fatsecret.com
2. Register an application
3. Copy your Consumer Key and Consumer Secret

2. Save Credentials

mkdir -p ~/.config/fatsecret
cat > ~/.config/fatsecret/config.json << EOF
{
  "consumer_key": "YOUR_CONSUMER_KEY",
  "consumer_secret": "YOUR_CONSUMER_SECRET"
}
EOF

3. Install Dependencies

cd /path/to/fatsecret-skill
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

4a. For Read-Only (OAuth2) - No user login needed

# Search works immediately
./scripts/fatsecret-cli.sh search "chicken breast"

4b. For Diary Logging (OAuth1) - One-time user authorization

# Run authentication flow
./scripts/fatsecret-cli.sh auth

# Follow prompts:
# 1. Visit the authorization URL
# 2. Log in with FatSecret account
# 3. Authorize the app
# 4. Enter the PIN shown

# Now you can log foods
./scripts/fatsecret-cli.sh quick egg 3 Breakfast

📋 CLI Commands

🤖 Agent Integration

For OpenClaw Agents

from scripts.fatsecret_agent_helper import (
    get_authentication_flow,
    complete_authentication_flow,
    save_user_credentials
)

# Check authentication status
state = get_authentication_flow()

if state["status"] == "need_credentials":
    # Ask user for Consumer Key/Secret
    # Save with: save_user_credentials(key, secret)
    pass

elif state["status"] == "need_authorization":
    # Show authorization URL to user
    url = state["authorization_url"]
    # User visits URL, authorizes, gets PIN
    # Complete with: complete_authentication_flow(pin)
    pass

elif state["status"] == "already_authenticated":
    # Ready to use diary functions
    from scripts.fatsecret_diary_simple import quick_log
    quick_log("egg", quantity=3, meal="Breakfast")

Agent Helper Functions

⚠️ IMPORTANT: How grams_or_ml Works

The grams_or_ml parameter (called number_of_units in FatSecret API) is the ACTUAL amount, not a multiplier!

# ❌ WRONG - This logs only 1.56 grams (7 kcal)!
log_food(food_id, serving_100g_id, 1.56, "Breakfast", "Cookies")

# ✅ CORRECT - This logs 156 grams (741 kcal)
log_food(food_id, serving_100g_id, 156, "Breakfast", "Cookies")

Examples:

🔐 Credential Storage

All credentials and tokens are stored locally:

Where $CONFIG_DIR is ~/.config/fatsecret by default, or the value of FATSECRET_CONFIG_DIR if set.

To revoke access: Delete the config folder and revoke app access from your FatSecret account settings.

🐳 Container/Docker Environments

In containerized environments (Docker, OpenClaw sandbox), ~/.config/ may not persist across restarts. Use FATSECRET_CONFIG_DIR to point to a persistent volume:

# Set env var to persistent directory
export FATSECRET_CONFIG_DIR="/home/node/clawd/config/fatsecret"

# Or prefix commands
FATSECRET_CONFIG_DIR="/persistent/path" ./scripts/fatsecret-cli.sh auth

OpenClaw example - add to your shell init or AGENTS.md:

export FATSECRET_CONFIG_DIR="/home/node/clawd/config/fatsecret"

🌐 Proxy Configuration (Optional)

Some FatSecret API plans require IP whitelisting. If needed, set a proxy:

# Environment variable
export FATSECRET_PROXY="socks5://127.0.0.1:1080"

# Or in config.json
{
  "consumer_key": "...",
  "consumer_secret": "...",
  "proxy": "socks5://127.0.0.1:1080"
}

If you don't need a proxy: The skill works without it. Proxy is only required if FatSecret blocks your IP.

🌍 Open Food Facts (Alternative)

For European products, use the free Open Food Facts API (no authentication):

from scripts.openfoodfacts_client import OpenFoodFactsClient

off = OpenFoodFactsClient(country="it")
products = off.search("barilla")
product = off.get_product("8076800105735")  # Barcode

⚠️ Security Notes

1. Credentials are stored locally in ~/.config/fatsecret/
2. OAuth1 tokens don't expire unless you revoke them
3. OAuth1 grants full access to your FatSecret diary (read + write)
4. To uninstall safely: Delete ~/.config/fatsecret/ and revoke app from FatSecret account

• Unified authentication: single OAuth1 flow works for both read and write operations
• Removed broken OAuth2 implementation
