Some irrelevant comments
A Done is A Done. As long as it’s functional I am fine with how nasty the codes are…
- Initially I do not intend to use Obsidian as a food consumption record app, since Excel exists and the idea of All-in-One just makes the vault complex. This complexity is the main reason why I archived my first vault and started a second one.
- Later I found the mobile app that I used for food recording before had an unacceptable amount of ads and pop-ups, besides editing Excel files on phones seems… pathetic. Plus there is no way for me to bring my laptop near the food preparing area, so here I am.
- There will be some loss in the calculation due to how I
Roundthese values. Nutrition Values are just some estimation. The most important part is to Keep Calm and Take Care Ourselves
Download
- Download Link: NaraRaa525/-Obsidian-Sample-Food-Vault: A sample vault for food consumption (github.com)
- I provide a small tutorial inside the
00-Get Startedfolder.
How does the vault work
- Manually input one ingredients and its nutrition values (NV) per markdown file. These values will be processed to NV/gram and be stored in property. This includes
Calorie(kJ), Protein, Fat, Carbohydrates and Sodium. Preset amount is also needed for easier input, like125g/boxof blueberries. - Retreive Those Values using
Templater, put them in different locations and askDataviewto calculate and sum the values, as for how i did that… please download the vault because I myself also do not know how to explain the code. - If it’s daily note, store the net weight of food and netValue of those 5 NVs mentioned above as properties.
I do not feel like tracking them at the moment though, i made this because i wanted to see if i could achieve this
- Thanks holroy for providing all kinds of dataviewjs answers on this forum!
- Thanks GPT for helping me understand javascript and troubleshooting codes.
- Hope you find this somewhat useful. I am happy if some of the part in this vault helps you!
