Cool, I figured TikTok was a long shot. Regardless, I think I’m going to give it a go.
Comment on CookTrace 1.0.0-rc.1: Self-hosted Recipe Manager
TraceApps@lemmy.world 1 day agoThat URL should import cleanly; it’s a standard food blog with the markup the importer expects.
TikTok though, honestly, no. TikTok pages don’t expose the recipe text to scrapers and the AI fallback has almost nothing to work with. A real TikTok URL importer would need to call TikTok’s caption API and transcribe the video audio, which isn’t built yet.
Workaround that may possibly work today: screenshot the recipe overlay (or the comment where the creator wrote it out) and use Photo Import the AI extracts the recipe from the image. Two taps, same result.

I’m just going to note I’ve done this with an instagram recipe with good results - not with cooktrace, but my local llm to generate json for mealie.
I’ll have to spin your trio up this weekend!
