Text search considering 'custom completeness'

[maks-io]

The title for this feature request maybe isn't the best one, but i will try to describe it by answering the following questions:

What

• Users of my app are allowed to search the OOF database via text search (as described here: https://en.wiki.openfoodfacts.org/API/Read/Search ). However, a food is only 'valid' within my app, if it at least has information on the 3 macro nutrients (protein, carbs and fat). I currently didn't find any way to limit the search result to being complete regarding those 3 macro nutrients.
• I currently do it the following way: users do the text search first, they get listed as possible options in my select field, and only after the user selects one of the entries, then i will do a second API call to OOF, looking for the detailed information (including its nutrients). In those cases it often happens, that users select foods with incomplete macro nutrient data of course, because they won't know if a food is complete unless selecting it in the drop-down.

Proposed solution

• I guess it could be nice to filter out certain foods that don't fulfil certain (custom) completeness, when doing the API call. In my case I would label a food as 'complete' if it has data about the 3 macro nutrients. Also, in some more rare use cases within my app it is necessary for a food to also have data about its sugar and saturated fat. It would be nice to only fetch those foods from OOF too.

Considered alternatives

• My current workaround is described above.
• In case there is already away to achieve what i would like to achieve, I am sorry, and simultaneously happy... please let me know then :)
