An API to keep track of daily calories consumed by user. Also users can set their daily maximum calorie consumption limit. Once this limit exceeds, every food-item consumed thereafter shall have a boolean field set to True for calories_exceeded field.

Local Setup

$ git clone https://github.com/suvhotta/calorie_app_DRF.git
$ cd calorie-tracker-django-restframework
$ pipenv install
$ pipenv shell
$ python manage.py makemigrations
$ python manage.py migrate

$ python manage.py runserver

Defining Roles

• Admin : Can add/fetch/remove both users and food-items.
• User Manager : Can add/fetch/remove only users.
• Normal User : Can add/fetch/remove self added food-items.

Creating admin

To create an admin with default username: admin, password: admin, and max_calories: 2000

$ python manage.py create_admin

To specify the username, password or max_calories:

$ python manage.py create_admin --username <username>
  --password <password> --max_calories <max_calories>

The admin account can be therafter used to create more users. There isn't any limitation on username and password, however the max_calories should be an integer.

Endpoint	HTTP Method	CRUD	RESULT
register	POST	CREATE	creates new user
users	GET	READ	list of all users
users/pk	GET	READ	Single User info
users/pk	PUT	UPDATE	Updates a user
users/pk	PATCH	UPDATE	Updates a user
users/pk	DELETE	DELETE	Deletes a user
fooditem	POST	CREATE	Creates a food entry
fooditem	GET	READ	List of all fooditems
fooditem/pk	GET	READ	Details about a particular food entry
fooditem/pk	PUT	UPDATE	Updates a food entry
fooditem/pk	PATCH	UPDATE	Updates a food entry
fooditem/pk	DELETE	DELETE	Deletes a food entry
