Food quantity approximation not working

[niksy]

In documentation there is an example of food approximation parsing, but that doesn’t seem to be working. I see from commit history that this was removed at some point. What’s the reason for this?

Hello niksy, indeed when I started to develop the library I thought to integrate a calculation of the approximate quantities by ingredient for needs on another of my projects. This involved having an up-to-date ingredient database / file. The needs are not urgent on my other project, so I gave up this feature for the moment.

Is it possible to return this functionality? Is there some error in that? Maybe add support for minimum and maximum quantity?

For example:

const ingredient = {
	instruction: '2-3 tbsp salt',
	unit: 'tbsp',
	amount: [2, 3],
	ingredient: 'salt'
};

Or:

const ingredient = {
	instruction: '2-3 tbsp salt',
	unit: 'tbsp',
	amount: 2.5,
	amountRange: [2, 3],
	ingredient: 'salt'
};
