README
DietCli is a blazingly fast, cross-platform, command line nutrition tracker written in C++.
Note: Previously it was known as "NutritionCLI". However, that version used INI, was slow and buggy and hence is no longer supported. Though it's [source code](https://github.com/hstsethi/nutritioncli) is available for historical purposes.
"Blazingly fast", is not just in name. See the benchmark at [Kaggle](https://www.kaggle.com/code/hstsethi/dietcli-benchmark) or run it yourself. Below are the results of the whole use, including printing and calculations, **not just parsing**.:
```
real 0m0.003s
user 0m0.001s
sys 0m0.002s
```
## Usage
Download the release or [build](build.md) it yourself.
To avoid clutter and promote a more structured, familiar approach of documentation. The documentation has been moved to man page. You can download the source and view it by `man ./dietcli.1` or read the [markdown version](docs/dietcli.md).
To generate a pie chart of calorie breakdown by macro nutrient, simply run `python visualize.py`.
## Examples
```
$ ./dietcli macro my-custom-config.json
Protein RDI amount : 50 Consumed amount : 20 Remaining : 30
Carbs RDI amount : 225 Consumed amount : 100 Remaining : 125
Fats RDI amount : 70 Consumed amount : 10 Remaining : 60
Fiber RDI amount : 30 Consumed amount : 20 Remaining : 10
```
```
$ ./dietcli vit | awk '{print $1, $12}'
# NutrientName, RemainingAmount
A 200
B12 1
C 81
D 18
E 7
K 3
```
