Modified scrapers:

  • bbcgoodfood.com

Simple usage:

from recipe_scrapers import scrape_me

# give the url as a string, it can be url from any site listed below
scraper = scrape_me('https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/158968/spinach-and-feta-turkey-burgers/')

# Q: What if the recipe site I want to extract information from is not listed below?
# A: You can give it a try with the wild_mode option! If there is Schema/Recipe available it will work just fine.
scraper = scrape_me('https://www.feastingathome.com/tomato-risotto/', wild_mode=True)

scraper.title()
scraper.total_time()
scraper.yields()
scraper.ingredients()
scraper.instructions()
scraper.image()
scraper.host()
scraper.links()

Note: scraper.links() returns a list of dictionaries containing all of the <a> tag attributes. The attribute names are the dictionary keys.

Contribute

Part of the reason I want this open sourced is because if a site makes a design change, the scraper for it should be modified.

If you spot a design change (or something else) that makes the scraper unable to work for a given site - please fire an issue asap.

If you are programmer PRs with fixes are warmly welcomed and acknowledged with a virtual beer.

If you want a scraper for a new site added

FAQ

  • How do I know if a website has a Recipe Schema? Run in python shell:
from recipe_scrapers import scrape_me
scraper = scrape_me('<url of a recipe from the site>', wild_mode=True)
# if no error is raised - there's schema available:
scraper.title()
scraper.instructions()  # etc.
