This is the code for a web page listing the menus of the restaurants near SciLifeLab Solna (KI) and Uppsala (BMC).

The first code was written in 2010 by @talavis, who is still the main developer. There are also multiple contributors of e.g. bugfixes and new parsers.

There are three parts:

• A parser that can be imported in Python. It uses Requests and BeautifulSoup to download and parse the restaurant web pages.
• A backend that makes the menus available via an API built on top of Flask.
• A frontend that presents the menus in a more readable format (by making requests to the backend). It is written in Quasar (Vue).

Run docker-compose up.

To add a new restaurant:

1. Add the parser function to parser.py
2. Add the relevant keyword and function name to MAPPER in main.py
3. Add information about the restaurant to restaurants.json

• /restaurant (json): List all supported restaurants
• /restaurant/<identifier> (json): Retrieve menu for a restaurant (identifier can be obtained from the above request).

• Backend
• Frontend

Bugs and requests for new restaurants or features should be submitted as issues to Github.
