Edamam-ruby

This is a ruby wrapper for the Edamam api.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'edamam-ruby'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install edamam-ruby

To use this library you have to initialize the Edamam::Client with a valid app_id and app_key. If you dont have one, you can register with Edamam and get your credentials.

client = Edamam::Client.new(app_id: "secret-app-id", app_key: "super-secret-app_id")

Or you can instantiate with a block

    client = Edamam::Client.new do |client|
        client.app_id = "secret-app-id"
        client.app_key = "super-secret-app_id"
    end

After instantiating, you can make a request to the Edamam foodrequest api

    nutritional_data = client.food_database.nutritional_data("1 large apple")

This would return an object which has all the successfull fields from Edamam api.

###Note This gem makes use of a logger in case there is an error. You can customize this logger to use any logger of your choice. For example, in a rails application you can simple add this as an initializer

    Edamam.logger = Rails.logger

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
