Usage

result = Ingreedy.parse('1 lb. potatoes')
print result.amount
  #=> 1.0
print result.unit
  #=> :pound
print result.ingredient
  #=> "potatoes"

I18n and custom dictionaries

Ingreedy.dictionaries[:fr] = { 
  units: { dash: ['pincée'] }, 
  numbers: { 'une' => 1 }, 
  prepositions: ['de'] 
}

Ingreedy.locale = :fr # Also automatically follows I18n.locale if available

result = Ingreedy.parse('une pincée de sucre')
print result.amount
  #=> 1.0
print result.unit
  #=> :dash
print result.ingredient
  #=> "sucre"

Handling amounts

By default, Ingreedy will convert all amounts to a rational number:

result = Ingreedy.parse("1 1/2 cups flour")
print result.amount
  #=> 3/2

However, setting Ingreedy.preverse_amounts = true, will allow amounts to be detected and returned as originally input:

Ingreedy.preserve_amounts = true

result = Ingreedy.parse("1 1/2 cups flour")
print result.amount
  #=> 1 1/2
