## Installation

### Prerequisites

- Python 3.8 or higher
- FFmpeg (required for video/audio processing)

#### Installing FFmpeg

**Windows:**

```powershell
# Using Chocolatey
choco install ffmpeg

# Or download from https://ffmpeg.org/download.html
```

**macOS:**

```bash
brew install ffmpeg
```

**Linux:**

```bash
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg  # Debian/Ubuntu
sudo yum install ffmpeg      # CentOS/RHEL
```

### Install CRTR

#### From Source (Development)

```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/crtr.git
cd crtr

# Install in editable mode with dev dependencies
pip install -e ".[dev]"
```

#### From PyPI (once published)

```bash
pip install crtr
```

## Quick Start

### Basic Usage

```python
from crtr import ConvertReelToRecipe, GeminiModel

# Initialize the converter
converter = ConvertReelToRecipe()

# Convert a reel to a recipe
recipe = converter.convert_to_recipe_from_reel_url(
    reel_url="https://www.instagram.com/reel/ABC123xyz/",
    ai_model=GeminiModel.GEMINI_2_0_FLASH.value,
    api_key="your-google-ai-api-key"
)

print(recipe)  # Outputs JSON-formatted recipe
```

### Step-by-Step Usage

```python
from crtr import ConvertReelToRecipe, TranscribeAudio, ModelSize

converter = ConvertReelToRecipe()

# 1. Download the reel
shortcode = converter.extract_shortcode("https://www.instagram.com/reel/ABC123xyz/")
video_path = converter.download_reel_from_shortcode(shortcode)

# 2. Extract audio
audio_path = converter.convert_video_to_audio(video_path)

# 3. Transcribe audio
transcript = converter.transcribe_audio(audio_path)

# 4. Build the AI prompt
prompt = converter.build_prompt(
    description=converter.description,
    transcript=transcript
)

# 5. Generate recipe
recipe = converter.generate_recipe(
    ai_model="gemini-2.0-flash",
    api_key="your-api-key"
)
```

## Configuration

### API Keys

You'll need a Google AI API key to use the recipe generation feature:

1. Visit [Google AI Studio](https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey)
2. Create a new API key
3. Use it in your code or set as environment variable:

```bash
export GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY="your-key-here"
```

### Model Selection

CRTR supports multiple AI models:

```python
from crtr import GeminiModel

# Available models
GeminiModel.GEMINI_2_0_FLASH.value       # Fast, recommended
GeminiModel.GEMINI_2_5_FLASH_LITE.value  # Lightweight
```

For transcription, choose from different Whisper model sizes:

```python
from crtr import ModelSize

# Available sizes (larger = more accurate but slower)
ModelSize.TINY.value
ModelSize.BASE.value
ModelSize.SMALL.value
ModelSize.MEDIUM.value    # Default
ModelSize.LARGE_V3.value
```

## Output Format

Recipes are generated as JSON with the following structure:

```json
{
  "title": "Recipe Name",
  "meal_type": "Aftensmad",
  "portions": 4,
  "ingredients": [
    {
      "name": "Ingredient name",
      "quantity": 100,
      "unit": "g",
      "danish_alternative": "Alternative if needed"
    }
  ],
  "equipment": ["Pan", "Knife"],
  "instructions": ["Step 1", "Step 2"],
  "serving_suggestions": ["Serve with..."],
  "nutritional_summary": {
    "total_recipe": {
      "Energi_kcal": 1200,
      "Protein_g": 45,
      "Fedt_g": 30,
      "Heraf_Mættet_Fedt_g": 10,
      "Kulhydrater_g": 150,
      "Heraf_Sukkerarter_g": 20,
      "Salt_g": 2
    },
    "per_portion": { ... }
  }
}
```
