A Python library to interact with Hulu's "hidden" 2.0 API.
Project description
hulu attempts to make it easy for developers to interact with the Hulu “hidden” 2.0 API
The Story
A friend of mine, (@adammagana) created a PHP library (found here) to interact with the Hulu “hidden” 1.0 API. The 1.0 API only returns XML, but someone opened up an issue revealing some 2.0 endpoints that return JSON.
Since JSON is easier to work with in Python than XML is, I took it upon myself to try an open up their API to other developers.
Features
List companies that have shows/videos on Hulu
List videos from a specific show
List trailers available on Hulu
Find the position of a given video within the shows video list
(Kind of) Much more!

$ pip install hulu
Example Usage
from hulu import Hulu h = HuluAPI() try: h.get_companies() except HuluError as e: print e try: h.get_video_info(441295) except HuluError as e: print e

TODO
Figure out authentication!
Some API methods require authentication, yet I haven’t been able to figure out how to authenticate to make those API calls, these API calls include:
api/2.0/plus_upsell.json api/2.0/favorited_show_ids api/2.0/queued_video_ids
