Express Recipes Filter

The request to the route /recipes/shopping-list?ids returns a list of all the aggregated ingredients contained in the matching IDs. The query parameter that can be used to set the recipe id is:

• ids: A comma-separated list of IDs for which the ingredients have to be aggregated. [STRING]

Note: The ingredients should only be aggregated for the IDs that match any of the recipe IDs present in the Recipe list, which is contained in the recipes.json file. All the non-matching IDs can be ignored entirely from the response.

Each Recipe object has a list of ingredients stored in the ingredients property of the object, as can be seen here:

{
    "id" : 1,
    "name": "Pot Roast",
    "ingredients": [
        {
            "quantity": "1",
            "name": " beef roast",
            "type": "Meat"
        },
        {
            "quantity": "1 package",
            "name": "brown gravy mix",
            "type": "Baking"
        }
    ]
}
