#PAPRIKA RECIPE MANAGER FORUM INSTALL#

I've included a couple of simple views (source and author) using the regular dataview table format. I'm not totally sure if this won't cause any issues on other systems (mine is MacOS), but it seemed like an idea to show folks what it looked like without any Paprika import files to play with. You should just be able to unzip the vault and open it with Obsidian to have a play around with the recipes in there. This does include the Cybertron theme and the dataview plugin. I've added a demo vault zipfile with some demo recipes and a basic set up. You can move this folder into your main vault, just make sure that you copy the resources folder with it.Images will be stored in a subfolder "_resources". Your Paprika recipes should be exported to the folder "my_vault/recipes" in the working directory.Run the command python paprika_to_md.py "Archive.paprikarecipes" "my_vault/recipes" "_resources" "template_dataview.md".Open up a Terminal window in the repo folder.You can also right click on a selection of recipes and share > export. You'll be able to choose the "Paprika Recipe Format" in the pop up. You'll need to make sure this is in the format ".paprikarecipes" and NOT HTML.

Export your Paprika recipes into the repo folder.Clone the repo to a folder of your choice.The actual processing time I've got at less than 10 seconds for over 600 recipes. I'll probably use Paprika for capture at the very least for the time being, but once you've got the workflow sorted, it'll only take a minute or so to export your recipes to a vault. I'll probably be tweaking the script a bit and working on the templates/dataview files going forward. This is not ( quite) intended to replace Paprika as your recipe manager, but it does manage to repeat some basic functionality, including scaling and tag usage.

It is built for use in Obsidian using the Dataview plugin, but you can use this to convert your recipe files into markdown, with some loss in functionality. This is a simple Python script that primarily will convert your Paprika recipes into Markdown.
