Parse ingredients using RapidAPI

If you have a RapidAPI subscription to Zestful, you can use your API key as follows:

import json
import parse_ingredient

# Replace this with your key from RapidAPI
# https://rapidapi.com/zestfuldata/api/recipe-and-ingredient-analysis
RAPID_API_KEY = 'your-rapid-api-key'

client = parse_ingredient.client(rapid_api_key=RAPID_API_KEY)

ingredient = client.parse_ingredient('2 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley')
print(json.dumps(ingredient.as_dict()))

Use private Zestful server

If you have a private Zestful ingredient parsing server as part of an Enterprise plan, you can use the library as follows:

import json
import parse_ingredient

ENDPOINT_URL = 'https://zestful.yourdomain.com'

client = parse_ingredient.client(endpoint_url=ENDPOINT_URL)

ingredient = client.parse_ingredient('2 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley')
print(json.dumps(ingredient.as_dict()))
