Rotten Tomatoes API for Python

Overview

rottentomatoes.py

rottentomatoes offers an easy-to-use Python wrapper to interact with the Rotten Tomatoes API. Before you try and use the API, make sure you sign up to get an API Key.

Installation

If you have pip installed, then run the following command:

pip install rottentomatoes

You can also run easy_install:

easy_install rottentomatoes

Or, if you want to help develop the package, just git clone the Github repository:

git clone https://github.com/zachwill/rottentomatoes.git

Usage

Without saving your API key as a RT_KEY environment variable:

from rottentomatoes import RT

RT('my_api_key').search('some movie here')

With your API key saved:

from rottentomatoes import RT

RT().search('some movie here')

NOTE: Documentation from this point forward will assume you have saved your Rotten Tomatoes Developer API Key as a RT_KEY environment variable:

$ RT_KEY='my_api_key'
$ echo $RT_KEY

Methods

{'your data': 'is right here'}

>>> rt.lists('movies')
{'links': {'box_office': 'http://link-to-box-office-movies',
           'in_theaters': 'http://link-to-movies-in-theaters',
           'opening': 'http://link-to-opening-movies',
           'upcoming': 'http://link-to-upcoming-movies'}

new

Short method to return just opened theatrical movies or newly released dvds. Returns a list of dictionaries.
