npm i anylist
Here's an example script (replace email
and password
with your credentials):
const AnyList = require('anylist');
const any = new AnyList({email: '[email protected]', 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();
});
const AnyList = require('anylist');
const any = new AnyList({email: '[email protected]', 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'],

}
);
// 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();
});
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
.
- 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.
