Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Yes! Settings → Backup → Nutrition Import. Built-in adapters for MyFitnessPal, Cronometer, LoseIt, and a generic CSV shape. Export your diary from MFP (it's a CSV in their account settings), upload it, preview, commit. Skip / Merge / Replace per-date semantics, so you can re-import safely without overwriting.
I created a helper script to export custom foods from MFP and store them in the NutriTrace JSON format, in case you find it helpful. https://gist.github.com/nomad64/87cf935d8373d730383c5a0e98693c94
Nice work, exactly the kind of bridge that makes leaving MFP a lot less painful for self-hosters. Would you be OK with me linking the gist from the NutriTrace README (under Foods & Meals) and from inside the Bulk Food Import modal? Happy to credit it as your script with a link back to the gist.
Either way, thanks for putting it together.
Actually, I moved it to a proper repo. I also created a script to get the proper food diary info from MFP.

Yeah, feel free to link to it or integrate it into NutriTrace directly. MFP doesn't allow users to export a lot of their data and what they do allow is pretty minimal (ex: food diary doesn't export the food diary, simply a diary of each meal).
I don't plan on supporting it, so it might break whenever MFP decides to update their API. But I am just glad if it helps even one person.
Nice! I will have to look into this when I have time in the coming weeks. Looks like a cool project!
