ingredient-slicer
Python 📦 package for extracting quantities, units, and food words from unstructured recipe ingredients text.
ingredient-slicer works by standardizing the input text and then applying a set of rules and heuristic methods to parse out quantities, units, and food words from unstructured recipe ingredients text.
ingredient-slicer was designed to provide a robust and lightweight method for parsing recipe ingredients
text without relying on any external dependencies or NLP/ML models.
That being said, it is not perfect and can always be improved upon.

Installation:
ingredient_slicer can be downloaded from PyPI via pip like so:
pip install ingredient-slicer
Usage:
Provide a string to the IngredientSlicer class and thats it. Invoke the to_json() method to return the parsed ingredient.
import ingredient_slicer
slicer = ingredient_slicer.IngredientSlicer("2 (15-ounces) cans chickpeas, rinsed and drained")
slicer.to_json()
{
'ingredient': '2 (15-ounces) cans chickpeas, rinsed and drained',
'standardized_ingredient': '2 cans chickpeas, rinsed and drained',
'food': 'chickpeas',
# primary quantity and units
'quantity': '30',
'unit': 'ounces',
'standardized_unit': 'ounce',
# any other secondary quantity and units found in the string
'secondary_quantity': '2',
'secondary_unit': 'cans',
'standardized_secondary_unit': 'can',
'gram_weight': '850.49',
'prep': ['drained', 'rinsed'],
'size_modifiers': [],
'dimensions': [],
'is_required': True,
'parenthesis_content': ['15 ounce']
}
Individual ingredient components can also be found using methods like food(), quantity(), or unit()
import ingredient_slicer
slicer = ingredient_slicer.IngredientSlicer("3 tbsp unsalted butter, softened at room temperature")
slicer.food()
>>> 'unsalted butter'
slicer.quantity()
>>> '3'
slicer.unit()
>>> 'tbsp'
slicer.standardized_unit()
>>> 'tablespoon'
slicer.prep()
>>> ['room temperature', 'softened']
