πŸ“‹ AnyList

node-current

a wrapper for AnyList's API (unofficial, reverse engineered)

Install

npm i anylist

Getting Started

Here's an example script (replace email and password with your credentials):

const AnyList = require('anylist');

const any = new AnyList({email: 'hi@here.com', password: 'password'});

any.on('lists-update', lists => {
  console.log('Lists were updated!');
});

any.login().then(async () => {
  await any.getLists();

  // Add new item to the Walmart list
  const walmart = any.getListByName('Walmart');

  let chips = any.createItem({name: 'Chips'});

  chips = await walmart.addItem(chips)

  // Check off added item
  chips.checked = true;
  // And change the quantity
  chips.quantity = '2';
  // Save updated item
  await chips.save();

  // Delete item
  await walmart.removeItem(chips);

  any.teardown();
});

Getting Started with Recipes

const AnyList = require('anylist');

const any = new AnyList({email: 'hi@here.com', password: 'password'});

any.login().then(async () => {
    const recipeName = 'Congee recipe';
    const testRecipe = await any.createRecipe(
        {
            name: recipeName,
            note: 'this is a test note',
            preparationSteps: ['# heading 1', 'this is preparation step 1'],
            servings: '2 servings as main dish',
            sourceName: 'serious eats',
            sourceUrl: 'https://seriouseats.com',
            scaleFactor: 1,
            rating: 5,
            ingredients: [{
                rawIngredient: '1 garlic, chopped',
                name: 'garlic',
                quantity: '1',
                note: 'chopped'
            }],
            nutritionalInfo: 'this is nutritional info',
            cookTime: 5 * 60, // seconds
            prepTime: 5 * 60, // seconds
            creationTimestamp: Date.now() / 1000,
            timestamp: Date.now() / 1000
        }
    );


    // Save test recipe
    await testRecipe.save();

    const collection = any.createRecipeCollection({ name: 'ONLINE RECIPES' })

    await collection.save();

    await collection.addRecipe(testRecipe.identifier);

    await collection.removeRecipe(testRecipe.identifier);

    // clean up / delete test recipe collection
    await collection.delete();

    // cleanup / delete test recipe
    await testRecipe.delete();


    any.teardown();
});

Persistent Credentials Storage

By default, the client ID and authentications tokens are encrypted with AES-256 encryption using your account password and then stored to disk. The default storage location is the .anylist_credentials file in the user home directory. If you wish to change the storage location, set the credentialsFile parameter of the AnyList constructor to the desired path. If you wish to disable persistent credentials storage, set the credentialsFile parameter to null.

Notes/Tips

  • There is much more functionality in the AnyList API that is not captured in this package, I just implemented the functions that I would be using. If there is functionality missing that you want, please open a PR and I'm happy to merge it in.
    • (This means that you can't currently add/remove/update lists.)
  • When adding new items, you should reuse existing, checked-off items if possible like the official clients do. Search the list by the item name with list.getItemByName('item-name') to see if it exists before adding a new instance.
