min $50 AUD / hour

I am after a web service that I can pass a recipe to, and have it calculate the nutritional data. I need to be able to pass a recipe as free text or a URL to a recipe online and have it return as much data as possible from the USDA nutrient database ([login to view URL]). The web service needs to work for both of the following use cases without manual intervention: - Pass a URL of a recipe to the web service and have it return all nutrient data from the USD nutrient database; - Pass free text of a recipe to the web service and have it return all nutrient data from the USD nutrient database; The web service needs to return the nutritional data in the following formats: - XML - Nutritional Facts Html - Nutritional Facts Image An I need to be able to select the format when calling the web service. NOTE: I will not make up front payments. Payment in full will be made on completion of the project.

Hello, Based on your project description you want to build a web service that will be based on the USDA nutrient database. I would like to propose the following idea on how I envision the development of the web service: 1. If at the input is an URL with the recipe then using web scrapping analyze the text and split the data into ingredient parts or into foodstuffs. 2. If the input is a free text then split the information and try to detect the ingredients 3. Use an internal database of the food and ingredients and it's names for decoding 4. Access the remote USDA nutrient database using the parsed and collected foods and read their nutrient data. 6. Compose the result as XML, HTML or Image and return to the caller The biggest effort here will be to parse out the ingredients from any source, free text or either remote URL. Maybe It will be required even to apply some neural networks or similar techniques to extract the data. As more sophisticated the parsing system is it will give better and more precise results. If you are interested I am available to discuss about the whole idea and every single part. Also if you think that the solution must be simpler I will be happy too review my proposal. Kind Regards, Patrik Fatoric

Hi, I can do this for you using apache + mod_wsgi + django (python). But I will need some clarifications on how it should work. A short example would help a lot. Once I understand what you want , I can have something to show to you in about 3 days. I'll provide the configuration that you need for apache to work with mod_wsgi and all. The configuration part will take about 1 day with testing. Thanks, Bogdan
