Recibase

Recibase is a recipe ingestion and navigation service, designed to ease the choosing of what to cook.

Recibase works like so:

1. Write Scala files containing your recipes
2. Recibase spins up an recipe API
3. The frontend lets you browse recipes by name, ingredient and more

There is also a separate GitHub pages site to host images of the cooked recipes and a Meal Chooser for filtering a complete list of everything we cook.

Roadmap

Recibase is a long term project which will grow depending on what features are useful or interesting to develop. The current plan is:

1. Standardise ingredients schema
2. Add a bunch of recipes
3. Add any small but useful features to improve frontend
4. Improve ingestion debugging capabilities (churn/reporting/etc.)
5. Continue to develop schema
6. Migrate frontend to separate React client and REST API
7. Add microservices for useful client-side functionality (favouriting, etc.)
8. ???
9. Profit

Requirements

• SBT
• Java 17

2. Open a command prompt inside the cloned repo
3. sbt run

If you want to use the web interface you'll need to set up the frontend too
