IMDbPY is a Python package useful to retrieve and manage the data of the IMDb movie database about movies, people, characters and companies

Overview

PyPI version. Supported Python versions. Project license. Travis CI build status.

IMDbPY is a Python package for retrieving and managing the data of the IMDb movie database about movies, people and companies.

Revamp notice

Starting on November 2017, many things were improved and simplified:

  • moved the package to Python 3 (compatible with Python 2.7)
  • removed dependencies: SQLObject, C compiler, BeautifulSoup
  • removed the "mobile" and "httpThin" parsers
  • introduced a test suite (please help with it!)

Main features

  • written in Python 3 (compatible with Python 2.7)
  • platform-independent
  • can retrieve data from both the IMDb's web server, or a local copy of the database
  • simple and complete API
  • released under the terms of the GPL 2 license

IMDbPY powers many other software and has been used in various research papers. Curious about that?

Installation

Whenever possible, please use the latest version from the repository:

pip install git+https://github.com/alberanid/imdbpy

But if you want, you can also install the latest release from PyPI:

pip install imdbpy

Example

Here's an example that demonstrates how to use IMDbPY:

from imdb import IMDb

# create an instance of the IMDb class
ia = IMDb()

# get a movie
movie = ia.get_movie('0133093')

# print the names of the directors of the movie
print('Directors:')
for director in movie['directors']:
    print(director['name'])

# print the genres of the movie
print('Genres:')
for genre in movie['genres']:
    print(genre)

# search for a person name
people = ia.search_person('Mel Gibson')
for person in people:
   print(person.personID, person['name'])

  • IMDb redesign broke most of the parsers on Dec. 19, 2017

    IMDb redesign broke most of the parsers on Dec. 19, 2017

    Issue description

    For the past couple of days, fetching information with imdpy is broken. For example, using the doc example of fetching data for "The Untouchables" yields a title of 'The leading information resource for the entertainment industry'

    Version of IMDbPY, Python and OS

    • Python: Python 3.6.4
    • IMDbPY: 6.2
    • OS: uname_result(system='Darwin', node='arioso', release='15.6.0', version='Darwin Kernel Version 15.6.0: Mon Nov 13 21:58:35 PST 2017; root:xnu-3248.72.11~1/RELEASE_X86_64', machine='x86_64', processor='i386')

    Steps to reproduce the issue

    >>> import imdb
    >>> ia = imdb.IMDb()
    >>> s_result = ia.search_movie("The Untouchables")
    >>> the_unt = s_result[0]
    >>> ia.update(the_unt)
    >>> the_unt['runtime']
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
      File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/imdb/utils.py", line 1480, in __getitem__
        rawData = self.data[key]
    KeyError: 'runtimes'
    >>> the_unt['rating']
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
      File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/imdb/utils.py", line 1480, in __getitem__
        rawData = self.data[key]
    KeyError: 'rating'
    >>> the_unt['title']
    'The leading information resource for the entertainment industry'
    >>> the_unt.keys()
    ['title', 'kind', 'year', 'akas', 'plot', 'canonical title', 'long imdb title', 'long imdb canonical title', 'smart canonical title', 'smart long imdb canonical title']
    >>> the_unt['kind']
    'movie'
    >>> the_unt['year']
    2017
    >>> the_unt['akas']
    ['The Untouchables']
    >>> the_unt['plot']
    ["A comedic look at the relationship between a wealthy paraplegic and an unemployed man with a criminal record who's hired to help him."]
    >>> the_unt['canonical title']
    'leading information resource for the entertainment industry, The'
    >>> the_unt['long imdb title']
    'The leading information resource for the entertainment industry (2017)'
    

    What's the expected result?

    • real movie data

    What's the actual result?

    • random marketing strings for imdb.com, or missing key errors of internal data

    Website redesign

    Hi everyone!

    I don't know where tickets related to the website should go, so I'm writing this here, apologies if it's the wrong place.

    I am currently attending a UI design course and, as an exercise, I decided to redesign the current website. I thought it needed a fresh new look, so here it is: please comment, leave your feedback and thoughts.

    Thank you!

  • imdbpy2sql.py never completes (OS X 10.7.5 Lion)

    imdbpy2sql.py never completes (OS X 10.7.5 Lion)

    I've tried to run imdbpy2sql.py three times now and each time it gets to the stage "adding foreign keys" and stalls. I left it running for more than 24 hours then gave up. Running it again I can see it get to around 47/48 minutes CPU time in Activity Monitor (which is like a GUI version of the top command) then nothing happens. There's no disk activity and the memory usage is zero.

    I set the computer never to sleep and ran the command through nohup in case that was a factor but the same thing happened.

    As it's done most of the work except for the foreign keys, is there a way I can re-run it, skipping everything else and just doing the foreign keys?

    series "creator" seems to be broken

    Issue description

    parsing of series "creator" seems to be broken

    Version of IMDbPY, Python and OS

    • Python: 3.6.9
    • IMDbPY: 6.8
    • OS: ('Linux', '5.3.0-62-generic', '#56~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 24 16:17:03 UTC 2020', 'x86_64', 'x86_64')

    Steps to reproduce the issue

    ia = IMDb()
    m = ia.get_movie("2861424")
    print(m['creator'])
    

    What's the expected result?

    [<Person id:1363595[http] name:_Dan Harmon_>, <Person id:1551598[http] name:_Justin Roiland_>]
    

    What's the actual result?

    KeyError: 'creator'
    

    Additional details

    The current code for extracting series creators is:

                    foreach='//td[starts-with(text(), "Creator")]/..//a',
    

    Changing it to match the code for extracting writers/directors seems to work:

                    foreach='//div[starts-with(normalize-space(text()), "Creator")]/ul/li[1]/a',
    

    Although why this is wasn't entirely clear to me. The actual structure of the html is this:

        <div class="credit_summary_item">
            <h4 class="inline">Creators:</h4>
            <a href="/name/nm1363595/?ref_=tt_ov_wr">Dan Harmon</a>, 
            <a href="/name/nm1551598/?ref_=tt_ov_wr">Justin Roiland</a>    
        </div>
    

    Which looks a lot more like ..//a than ul/li[1]/a to my untrained eye. But the latter form seems to work. (Note that Directors and Writers seem to have the same html form given above.)

  • Mismatch in

    Mismatch in "kind" parameter when using "ia.search_movie" and "ia.get_movie"

    Hello!

    I've got to say, fantastic job with this tooling, this is a great tool.

    However, I noticed an issue: Occasionally, with some titles, there's a mismatch with the "kind" result of search_movie and get_movie commands. For example, where get_movie gives you a "podcast episode", search_movie gives you "movie".

    A way to reproduce this result: Search phrase: "Better call saul - season 01 -" First result: 'DE TV Recap: Better Call Saul Season 5 Finale' IMDB-ID: 18612522 search_movie kind: "movie" get_movie kind: "podcast episode"

    Information: Python 3.10.0 Windows 10 or Linux platform / Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS (both reproduce this same output) Cinemagoer version 2022.02.11
