ingredients-parser

Parses ingredient strings into units, amounts and ingredient names. Forked from the now dead Ingreedyjs project.

Installation

npm install ingredients-parser --save

Usage

var parser = require('ingredients-parser');
 
var result = parser.parse('500ml milk');
result.amount //=> '500'
result.unit //=> 'ml'
result.ingredient //=> "milk"
 
result = parser.parse('two kg of all purpouse flour');
result.amount //=> 'two'
result.unit //=> 'kg'
result.ingredient //=> "all purpouse flour"
