15.0.0

🍗 🍚 🥘 15.0.0 🍏 🥕 🍅

Welcome to version 15.0.0 of recipe-scrapers, a simple scraping tool for recipe webpages.

This version is a major version upgrade, and contains some breaking changes from the 14.x series.

In particular:

• The scrape_me function to the library has been removed from the 15.x series - please migrate to use the recommended scrape_html function instead.
  • This includes removal of the generic options arguments that were previously passed to requests. Please configure the options for your HTTP client (requests, httpx, urllib.request or other) directly.
  • If you need more time to migrate: don't worry, the 14.x series will continue to be maintained and updated until we're comfortable that the upgraded version is in regular use.

To get started and for usage examples, see the README file.

Features

• Support for America's Test Kitchen, Cook's Country, and Cook's Illustrated have been added (#1060) - thank you, @smilerz!

Scrapers removed

Unfortunately the updated scraper interface is more restrictive, by-design, than 14.x - each scraper accepts an individual HTML page as input, and should not directly make additional HTTP requests. During adaptation to this interface, we dropped support for the following scrapers:

• coop.se
• gousto.co.uk
• kptncook.com
• madewithlau.com
• marleyspoon.com
• monsieur-cuisine.com
• woolworths.com.au

This makes scrapers simpler, and that means they're easier to review and support. But it is a trade-off against the coverage of recipe sites that we can achieve.

Dependencies removed

• requests is no longer a hard dependency of the library, but is available as an optional dependency.
• responses is no longer required to run unit tests for the library.

Edit: add missing (and important!) scrapers-removed section.
Edit: section-heading nesting consistency.
