  • Super quick access to what’s showing in a particular cinema

Installation

pip install ster-py

Currently only supporting python 2.7 :(


Sidenote

This is a weird python program. The only reason this exists is because sterkinekor have generously(?) left all their xml feeds open. The ones I used in particular are:

http://www.sterkinekor.com/website/scripts/xml_feed.php?name=movies

http://www.sterkinekor.com/website/scripts/xml_feed.php?name=cinemas

http://www.sterkinekor.com/website/scripts/xml_feed.php?name=hashcheck_app_android_v2

http://www.sterkinekor.com/scripts/xml_feed.php?name=performance&movie_id=x

It’s pretty cool that all of this data is available, even including a hash of the xml files. So I thought I might as well take advantage of that; especially because of how much I hate their website :)

Also this is the first time I’ve ever released a python package on PyPi so if i’ve made any obvious mistakes, well anywhere, please tell me!
