How to use various TMDB APIs
pubblicato da CupidvogelSTAFFMOD il 21 maggio, 2016 alle 5:25PM
I am feeling very frustrated at the way the TMDB API usage examples have been given here: http://docs.themoviedb.apiary.io/#reference/search/searchmovie/get.
I am trying to query by movie name "Fight Club", but the example to the right does not show how to use the movie name in the URL, but the returned result includes tall correct results. In fact this is the case with almost all examples. The URL is incomplete, does not show how to use the query parameter or other parameters, but the output shows a complete example.
I tried these URLs:
http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie=titanic?api_key=XXXX
http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/titanic?api_key=XXXX
In each case it returns saying that the resource could not be found.
Help!

Hi Cupidlvogel,
An example search query looks like this:
Hope that helps.

Hi, in the same vein, can you tell me how do I see all movies that have a particular genre according to this call?
http://api.themoviedb.org/3/genre/10751/movies?api_key=
This by default excludes movies with fewer than 10 votes and adult movies. I want all movies, including adult.
And the numbers for each genre look pretty small. So are there lots of movies with no genre information?

If you take a look at http://docs.themoviedb.apiary.io/#reference/genres/genreidmovies/get it lists what you need.
If you're feeling lazy, there are two params you can add to your query
include_all_moviesinclude_adulthttp://api.themoviedb.org/3/genre/10751/movies?api_key=<key>&include_all_movies=true&include_adult=trueshould get you what you're looking for.

Everything grobot said is true but I would actually recommend using discover. You get way more filters and sort options along with a consistent API if you want to do more queries down the road.
Cheers.
