To use this application, you will need to replace YOUR_API_KEY with your actual OMDB API key.

Go to www.omdbapi.com  and sign up for an account.
Create a new user and get an API key.
Replace YOUR_API_KEY with the value returned in the email you received after signing up for an account.
Run the application using Python (e.g., python app.py).
Open your favorite web browser and navigate to http://localhost:5000 .

Here's how you can use this API:

Send a GET request to http://localhost:5000/search?q=Movie+Title+You+Want+To+Search+For  to search for movies on the OMDB API.

from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
import requests

app = Flask(__name__)

# Define the OMDB API URL
OMDB_API_URL = 'http://www.omdbapi.com'

# Set up a dictionary to store the movie data from the API
movie_data = {}

@app.route('/search', methods=['GET'])
def search_movies():
    # Get the query parameter from the request
    query = request.args.get('q')

    if not query:
        return jsonify({'error': 'Missing query parameter'}), 400

    # Build the OMDB API URL with the query parameter
    url = f'{OMDB_API_URL}?s={query}&apikey=YOUR_API_KEY'

    try:
        # Send a GET request to the OMDB API
        response = requests.get(url)

        if response.status_code == 200:
            # Parse the JSON response from the OMDB API
            data = response.json()

            # Extract the movie title and URL from the API response
            for i in range(1, int(data['totalResults']) + 1):
                movie_title = data['Search'][i - 1]['Title']
                movie_url = data['Search'][i - 1]['Year'] + ' ' + data['Search'][i - 1]['Type']

                # Store the movie title and URL in the dictionary
                movie_data[movie_title] = {'url': movie_url}

            return jsonify(movie_data)
        else:
            return jsonify({'error': f'Failed to retrieve movie data. Status code: {response.status_code}'}), response.status_code
    except requests.RequestException as e:
        return jsonify({'error': f'Request error: {e}'}), 500

@app.route('/movie/<string:title>', methods=['GET'])
def get_movie_info(title):
    # Get the title from the request path
    title = title.lower()

    if not title:
        return jsonify({'error': 'Missing movie title parameter'}), 400

    # Check if we have data for this movie in our dictionary
    if title in movie_data:
        movie_url = movie_data[title]['url']

        try:
            # Send a GET request to the OMDB API with the URL of the movie
            response = requests.get(movie_url)

            if response.status_code == 200:
                # Parse the JSON response from the OMDB API
                data = response.json()

                # Extract the movie title, genre, release date, and runtime from the API response
                try:
                    movie_title = data['Title']
                    movie_genre = data['Genre'].replace(",", ", ")
                    movie_release_date = data['ReleaseDate']
                    movie_runtime = data['Runtime']

                    return jsonify({
                        'title': movie_title,
                        'genre': movie_genre,
                        'release_date': movie_release_date,
                        'runtime': movie_runtime
                    })
                except KeyError:
                    return jsonify({'error': f'Missing movie information for {movie_title}'}), 404
            else:

Mmmm

On my Nvidia Shield TV 4k Pro Kodi setup I have Trakt.tv basically for tracking what I watch and voting with remote control.

I have it setup so my 🏴‍☠️ seedbox/streaming apps synchronize with it automatically.

I don't really vote on things unless I really really like or dislike them eh.

I use my Firefox web browser on my phone to edit stuff I watch or comment tho there's apps too.

📑API Docs:

Have fibromyalgia+cPTSD myself, so I understand the struggle.

I love my steam deck desk I have on my bean bag/TV too 🥹.

Not really actually using it on my phone or web, and just from the Kodi add-ons, there are no adds or limitations.

On Firefox my ublock blocks adds on the site, but they do have VIP offerings to support them.
