Avocavo Python SDK - Nutrition analysis made simple with secure USDA data access

Project description

🥑 Avocavo Python SDK

Nutrition analysis made simple. Get accurate USDA nutrition data with secure authentication.

🚀 Quick Start

import avocavo

# Login to your account (OAuth flow)
avocavo.login()

# Analyze a single ingredient
result = avocavo.analyze("1 cup brown rice")
print(f"Calories: {result.nutrition.calories}")

# Analyze a recipe
recipe = avocavo.analyze_recipe([
    "2 large eggs",
    "1 cup all-purpose flour", 
    "1/2 cup milk"
])
print(f"Total calories: {recipe.total_nutrition.calories}")

📦 Installation

pip install avocavo

Requirements:

  • Python >= 3.8
  • Internet connection for API access

🔐 Authentication

  1. Sign up at nutrition.avocavo.app
  2. Login via Python:
    import avocavo
    avocavo.login()  # Opens browser for secure OAuth
    
  3. Your credentials are stored securely in your system keyring

📖 Basic Usage

Single Ingredient Analysis

import avocavo

# Simple ingredient analysis
result = avocavo.analyze("1 cup quinoa, cooked")

print(f"Calories: {result.nutrition.calories}")
print(f"Protein: {result.nutrition.protein}g")
print(f"Fiber: {result.nutrition.fiber}g")

# Access USDA match information
print(f"USDA Food: {result.usda_match.description}")
print(f"Confidence: {result.usda_match.confidence_score}")

Recipe Analysis

# Analyze a complete recipe
ingredients = [
    "2 cups rolled oats",
    "1 banana, mashed", 
    "1/2 cup blueberries",
    "1 cup almond milk"
]

recipe = avocavo.analyze_recipe(ingredients)

# Get totals
print(f"Total Calories: {recipe.total_nutrition.calories}")
print(f"Total Protein: {recipe.total_nutrition.protein}g")

# Get per-serving (if servings specified)
print(f"Per Serving: {recipe.per_serving_nutrition.calories} calories")

# Individual ingredient breakdown
for ingredient in recipe.ingredients:
    print(f"{ingredient.original_input}: {ingredient.nutrition.calories} cal")

Batch Analysis

# Analyze multiple ingredients efficiently
ingredients = [
    "1 cup rice",
    "100g chicken breast",
    "1 medium apple",
    "2 tbsp olive oil"
]

results = avocavo.analyze_batch(ingredients)

for result in results:
    print(f"{result.original_input}: {result.nutrition.calories} calories")

🔧 Advanced Usage

Using the Client Class

from avocavo import NutritionAPI

# Initialize client (uses stored credentials)
client = NutritionAPI()

# Analyze with additional options
result = client.analyze_ingredient(
    "1 cup rice", 
    include_sub_nutrients=True,
    portion_precision="high"
)

# Get detailed nutrition breakdown
nutrients = result.nutrition.detailed_nutrients
for nutrient in nutrients:
    print(f"{nutrient.name}: {nutrient.amount}{nutrient.unit}")

Account Management

import avocavo

# Check your usage
usage = avocavo.get_account_usage()
print(f"Requests used: {usage.requests_used}/{usage.requests_limit}")

# Get current user info
user = avocavo.get_current_user()
print(f"Logged in as: {user.email}")

# Manage API keys
api_keys = avocavo.list_api_keys()
for key in api_keys:
    print(f"Key: {key.name} (Created: {key.created_at})")

🔒 Security Features

  • 🔐 Secure Authentication: OAuth flow with system keyring storage
  • 🛡️ SSL Verification: All API calls use verified HTTPS connections
  • 🔑 No Hardcoded Secrets: Credentials stored securely, never in code
  • 🚫 Input Sanitization: All inputs properly validated and sanitized

📊 Data Models

Nutrition Object

nutrition = result.nutrition

# Macronutrients
print(nutrition.calories)      # kcal
print(nutrition.protein)       # grams
print(nutrition.carbs)         # grams  
print(nutrition.fat)           # grams
print(nutrition.fiber)         # grams

# Micronutrients
print(nutrition.sodium)        # mg
print(nutrition.calcium)       # mg
print(nutrition.iron)          # mg
print(nutrition.vitamin_c)     # mg

USDA Match Information

match = result.usda_match

print(match.fdc_id)           # USDA FDC ID
print(match.description)      # Food description
print(match.confidence_score) # Match confidence (0-1)
print(match.data_type)        # SR Legacy, Foundation, etc.

🚨 Error Handling

from avocavo import ApiError

try:
    result = avocavo.analyze("invalid ingredient")
except ApiError as e:
    print(f"API Error: {e.message}")
    print(f"Status Code: {e.status_code}")
    
    if e.status_code == 401:
        print("Authentication required - run avocavo.login()")
    elif e.status_code == 429:
        print("Rate limit exceeded - upgrade your plan")

📚 Examples

Meal Planning

import avocavo

# Plan a day of meals
breakfast = avocavo.analyze_recipe([
    "2 eggs, scrambled",
    "1 slice whole wheat toast",
    "1/2 avocado"
])

lunch = avocavo.analyze_recipe([
    "4 oz grilled chicken",
    "1 cup quinoa",
    "1 cup steamed broccoli"
])

dinner = avocavo.analyze_recipe([
    "6 oz salmon fillet",
    "1 cup brown rice", 
    "1 cup roasted vegetables"
])

# Calculate daily totals
daily_calories = (breakfast.total_nutrition.calories + 
                 lunch.total_nutrition.calories + 
                 dinner.total_nutrition.calories)

print(f"Daily Total: {daily_calories} calories")

Recipe Scaling

# Original recipe for 4 servings
original = avocavo.analyze_recipe([
    "2 cups flour",
    "4 eggs",
    "1 cup milk"
], servings=4)

# Scale to 8 servings (double)
scale_factor = 8 / 4

scaled_ingredients = []
for ingredient in original.ingredients:
    # Extract amount and scale (simplified example)
    scaled_amount = ingredient.parsed_amount * scale_factor
    scaled_ingredients.append(f"{scaled_amount} {ingredient.parsed_unit} {ingredient.parsed_food}")

scaled_recipe = avocavo.analyze_recipe(scaled_ingredients, servings=8)
