⚠️ Since October 1, 2019, the APIs this package relies on have been deprecated. python-usda 1.x will remove those APIs and rely on the new Food Data Central APIs.

python-usda is a fork of pygov focused on USDA's Food Composition Database API. Have a look at the documentation!

pip install python-usda

Usage

from usda.client import UsdaClient

client = UsdaClient("YOUR_API_KEY")

Acerola juice, raw
Acerola, (west indian cherry), raw
