#Food Recipe Generator

###Goals:

• Transform SR27 food database from usda into sqlite db
• Ability to generate custom recipes from database based on various parameters
• Turn into an API server allowing users to submit calls

###Steps:

1. Write code to import SR27 into sqlite
2. Write basic scheduling program
3. Finalize recipe formats
4. Write recipe parser
5. Randomize parsed recipes
6. Compile nutrition info
7. Build small web ui

###Requirements:

######Server:

• make
• golang. I use 1.4.
• npm <--- coming soon. Forever is an awesome script to manage daemons like this

######Client:

• npm
• bower
• browserify

###Installation

• Run make file. Takes seconds on a real computer and about 50 minutes on a raspberry pi.

###Notes

• Stupid non-ascii characters. Use grep --color='auto' -P -n "[^\x00-\x7F]" . -r to find them. Their is one in "Entree" in the weight file. There is also a weird character in µ in nutr_def. These are swapped for something else when they go in the database.
