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

search

Rotten Tomatoes movie search. Returns a list of dictionaries. Possible keyword arguments include: page and page_limit.

>>> rt = RT()
>>> rt.search('the lion king')
[{'movie': 'here'}, {'movie': 'here'}, ...]

>>> rt.search('fight club', page_limit=2)
[{'movie': 1}, {'movie': 2}]

>>> rt.search('disney', page=2)
[{'movie': 'from second page'}, {'movie': 'from second page'}, ...]

lists

Displays the lists available in the Rotten Tomatoes API.

>>> rt = RT()
>>> rt.lists()
{'links': {'movies': 'http://link-to-movies',
           'dvds': 'http://link-to-dvds'}}

>>> rt.lists('dvds')
{'links': {'new_releases': 'http://link-to-new-releases'}}

>>> rt.lists(directory='dvds')
{'links': {'new_releases': 'http://link-to-new-releases'}}

>>> rt.lists('dvds', 'new_releases')
{'your data': 'is right here'}

>>> rt.lists(directory='dvds', sub='new_releases')
{'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'}

>>> rt.lists('movies', 'box_office')
{'your data': 'is right here'}

>>> rt.lists('movies', 'box_office', page_limit=5)
{'only five': 'box office movies'}

>>> rt.lists('movies', 'opening')
{'your data': 'is right here'}

info

Return info for a movie given its id. Arguments for specific_info include cast and reviews.

>>> rt = RT()
>>> fight_club = '13153'
>>> rt.info(fight_club)
{'your data': 'is right here'}

>>> rt.info(fight_club, 'cast')
{'cast info': 'is right here'}

>>> rt.info(fight_club, 'reviews')
{'reviews': 'are right here'}

new

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

>>> rt = RT()
>>> rt.new('movies')
[{'movie': 'here'}, {'movie': 'here'}, ...]

>>> rt.new('dvds')
[{'dvd': 'here'}, {'dvd': 'here'}, ...]

movies

Short method for returning specific movie lists. Possible sub arguments include: box_office, in_theaters, opening, and upcoming.

>>> rt = RT()
>>> rt.movies('in_theaters', page_limit=5)
{'top five': 'movies in theaters'}

>>> rt.movies('opening', page_limit=5)
{'top five': 'movies opening'}

>>> rt.movies('upcoming', page=2)
{'page 2': 'of upcoming movies'}
```python

* `dvds` -- Short method for returning specific dvd lists. Currently, only one `sub` argument is possible: `new_releases`.
```python
>>> RT().dvds(page_limit=5)
{'only 5': 'newly released dvds'}
