The Recipe Generator API documentation is found here: https://docs.apiverve.com/ref/recipe. You can find parameters, example responses, and status codes documented here.

    api_key: '[YOUR_API_KEY]'
});

Usage

---

Perform Request

Using the API is simple. All you have to do is make a request. The API will return a response with the data you requested.

var query = {
  name: "chicken fajitas"
};

api.execute(query, function (error, data) {
    if (error) {
        return console.error(error);
    } else {
        console.log(data);
    }
});

---

Using Promises

You can also use promises to make requests. The API returns a promise that you can use to handle the response.

var query = {
  name: "chicken fajitas"
};

api.execute(query)
    .then(data => {
        console.log(data);
    })
    .catch(error => {
        console.error(error);
    });

---

Using Async/Await

You can also use async/await to make requests. The API returns a promise that you can use to handle the response.

async function makeRequest() {
    var query = {
  name: "chicken fajitas"
};

    try {
        const data = await api.execute(query);
        console.log(data);
    } catch (error) {
        console.error(error);
    }
}
