Well then you are assuming that the wrong thing is nil... perhaps it
isn't @parsed_response that is nil. Try working through the issue with
irb and seeing what your results are and work through how you'd navigate
the results.
All I can say is that it works just fine (accessing the calorieking api
and displaying the results), having never looked at their API or used
HTTParty before this a.m.
Model:
class Foodq < Object
include HTTParty
basic_auth "84294d7ae4454189bf2a3ebc37a0e421", ""
def trial_search
self.class.get("http://foodsearch1.webservices.calorieking.com/rest/search/chicken";)
end
end
Controller:
class FoodqsController < ApplicationController
def foods
@foodq = Foodq.new
@response = @foodq.trial_search
end
end
View (foods.html.haml - yeah, I use haml, but it's pretty easy to read,
and sooooo much nicer to code):
%table{:border => "1", :cellspacing => "1", :cellpadding => "1"}
- @response['searchresults']['category'].each do |cat|
%tr
%td{:colspan => "2"}= h(cat['name'])
- cat['foods']['food'].each do |fd|
%tr
%td= h(fd['id'])
%td= h(fd['display'])
Easy peasy...
