PTB Mensa (Berlin) Menu

This python package parses the PTB Mensa's (in Berlin) menu and provides it as machine readable python structures.

The challenge here is, that the menu is only provided as an image, and therefore needs to be processed with OCR.

Installation

You can install the module directly with pip:

$ pip install git+https://github.com/hnj2/ptb-mensa.git

You can also clone and install the module:

$ git clone https://github.com/hnj2/ptb-mensa.git
$ cd ptb-mensa
$ pip install -e .

Usage

The acompanying cli can be used as follows:

$ ptb-mensa help
Unknown argument: help
Usage:
  ptb-mensa [day|week]
    Prints the PTB mensa's menu of the day (default) or week.
$ ptb-mensa day

But the module can also be used directly in python:

In [1]: import ptb_mensa

In [2]: ptb_mensa.menu()
Out[2]: DayMenu(vegan=Menu(description='Sellerieschnitzel mit Süßkartoffelpüree_ Gurkensalat und Schwarzen Bohnen', price='5,00 €', extra=None), veggi=Menu(description='Pumpernickel-Frischkäsebällchen auf Blaubeersoße, Kräuterbrot & Wildkräuter salat', price='5,00 €', extra='G/AJ'), meat=Menu(description='Kalbleber Berliner Art mit Apfel, Zwiebeln und Püree', price='6,50 €', extra='G/Aa /€'), soup=Menu(description='Brokkolicremesuppe', price='klein 2,80 € groß 3,80 €', extra='V'))
