python-usda

⚠️ Since October 1, 2019, the APIs this package relies on have been deprecated. python-usda 1.x will remove those APIs and rely on the new Food Data Central_ APIs.

python-usda is a fork of pygov_ focused on USDA's Food Composition Database API <usda>. Have a look at the documentation!

Setup

::

pip install python-usda

Usage

.. code:: python

from usda.client import UsdaClient

client = UsdaClient("YOUR_API_KEY") foods = client.list_foods(5)

for food in foods: print(food.name)

Result::

Abiyuch, raw Acerola juice, raw Acerola, (west indian cherry), raw Acorn stew (Apache) Agave, cooked (Southwest)
