Mat
A small (unofficial) API client for the Mat API.
The documentation is in Swedish, but so is the data.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'mat'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install mat
Usage
It is probably a good idea to take a look in specs
# Find the first food with ’köttfärs’ in the name
food = Mat.all('Köttfärs').first
# You can also pass a search query to the find method
food = Mat.find('Köttfärs')
# Get the `iron` value (method_missing is used to retrieve each nutrient)
food.iron #=> 1.09
# Find a specific food by its number
food = Mat.find(3)
food.name #=> "Ister gris"
# You can also list all nutrients
Mat.nutrientsCLI
This gem comes with a simple command line interface.
# Finding foodstuff by its number
$ mat 55
