# ImdbPie
Python IMDB client using the IMDB json web service made available for their iOS app.
## How To Use
### Create an instance of ImdbPie
imdb = Imdb() imdb = Imdb({‘anonymize’ : True}) # to proxy requests
### Search for a movie by title
imdb.find_by_title(“The Dark Knight”) => [{‘title’ : “The Dark Knight”, ‘year’ : “2008”, ‘imdb_id’ : “tt0468569”}, {‘title’ : “Batman Unmasked”, …}]
### Find a movie by its imdb_id
movie = imdb.find_movie_by_id(“tt0468569”)
movie.title => “The Dark Knight” movie.rating => 8.1 movie.certification => “PG-13”
### Find a movie trailer poster
movie = imdb.find_movie_by_id(“tt1210166”) movie.trailer_url => “http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV5BODM1NDMxMTI3M15BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwMDAzODY1Ng@@._V1_.jpg”
### Find the top 250 movies ever
imdb.top_250() => [{‘title’: ‘The Shawshank Redemption’, ‘year’: ‘1994’, ‘type’: ‘feature’, ‘rating’: 9.3,…}, …]
### Get the current popular shows
imdb.popular_shows() => [{‘title’ : “Glee”, ‘year’ : “2009”, ‘imdb_id’ => “tt1327801”}, {‘title’ : “Dexter”, …}]
### Check if a movie exists, by imdb id
imdb.movie_exists(‘tt1327801’) => True
### Check an imdb id is of valid format (tt0000000), and try to fix if not
imdb.validate_id(‘tt1000’) => tt0001000
