aio-omdb

Asyncronous and synchronous Python clients for OMDb (the Open Movie Database).

Usage

from aio_omdb.client import AsyncOMDBClient, SyncOMDBClient

OMDB_API_KEY = '...'  # Get your key from OMDB

a_client = AsyncOMDBClient(api_key=OMDB_API_KEY)
s_client = SyncOMDBClient(api_key=OMDB_API_KEY)

# Client provides the following methods:

# Get by IMDB ID
await a_client.get_by_id('tt1000252')
s_client.get_by_id('tt1000252')

# Get by exact title
await a_client.get_by_id('Rome, open city')
s_client.get_by_id('Rome, open city')

# Search title by a word or phrase
await a_client.search('Spock')
s_client.search('Spock')

The following exceptions may be raised:

• aio_omdb.exc.InvalidAPIKey: if an invalid API key is used;
• aio_omdb.exc.MovieNotFound: if no movie can be found in get_by_id or get_by_title.
