A node library that takes a given url and scrapes that webpage for recipe data. This library supports websites that utilize either microdata or JSON-LD. The function returns a promise where on success will return the recipe and on fail will throw an error with the message: 'Could not find recipe data'

npm install recipe-data-scraper

Example Usage:

import recipeDataScraper from  'recipe-data-scraper';

async function (...) {
  try {
    // pass a full url to a page that contains a recipe
    const recipe = await recipeDataScraper(url);
    res.json({ recipe });
  } catch (error) {
    res.status(500).json({ message: err.message });
  }
}

Or:

import recipeDataScraper from 'recipe-data-scraper';

recipeDataScraper(url)
  .then((recipe) => res.json({ recipe }))
  .catch((err) => res.status(500).json({ message: err.message }));
