We will be querying the FoodData Central API with an ingredient to retrieve a list of the ten most relevant foods that include that ingredient.
First, sign up for an api key here: https://fdc.nal.usda.gov/api-key-signup.html
The documentation for the API can be found here: https://fdc.nal.usda.gov/api-guide.html
Make sure you take the time to read the documentation carefully. Remember, we want to get a list of foods that contain an ingredient.
In order to add your API key to your Rails credentials, run the following command: EDITOR="code --wait" rails credentials:edit
Add your key like so:
usda:
key: 1234abcdYOUR_KEY_HERE1234abcd
Once you save the editor, you should be able to retrieve this key by using Rails.application.credentials.usda[:key]
Complete the following user story. Be sure to TDD all of your work. Commit your work every 15 minutes.
Notes:
- Running the app and visiting the home page will show an error - THIS IS INTENTIONAL
- Make sure you read the story closely, each portion must be completed correctly in order for it to be considered passing.
As a user,
When I visit "/"
And I fill in the search form with "sweet potatoes"
(Note: Use the existing search form)
And I click "Search"
Then I should be on page "/foods"
Then I should see a total of the number of items returned by the search.
(sweet potatoes should find more than 30,000 results)
Then I should see a list of TEN foods that contain the ingredient "sweet potatoes"
And for each of the foods I should see:
- The food's GTIN/UPC code
- The food's description
- The food's Brand Owner
- The food's ingredients
Note: You can consider every result you get from the FoodData API to be a valid result for your search even if the ingredient list for the food is empty.
