Recipe scraper server

This is a flask server that serves an API that accepts recipe urls and returns a parsed recipe. Uses scrape-schema-recipe then falls back on recipe-scrapers.

It returns an object that fits the Schema.org Recipe specification.

You can access the API here

GET /api/parse?url=[your_url_here]

Returns the following:
