How It Works

The Movie Quote project scrapes data from kaakook.fr to create a database of movie and series quotes. The following steps outline how the project functions:

1. Run the data_collector.py file: This script creates the initial database by collecting IDs corresponding to movies and series from the website. This database will be used to retrieve movie information later.

2. Import the database module into your Python interpreter.

3. Utilize the various methods available in the database module to interact with the data

Database Methods

The database module contains several methods for interacting with the data:

Search

Use the search method to search for a movie or series by its title and retrieve its corresponding ID:

search("movie_title")

Search Number of Quotes

Retrieve the number of quotes for a specific movie or TV show. You can specify additional filters such as type ("Film" or "Série")

search_num_quotes(200)
search_num_quotes(200, types="Film")
search_num_quotes(200, types="Série")
search_num_quotes(top=10)

Search Years

Search for movies released in a specific year or within a range of years.

search_years(2005)
search_years(2005, sup="sup")
search_years(2005, inf="inf")

Search Director

Find movies directed by a specific director.

search_director("director_name")
search_director("director_name", type="Film")
search_director("director_name", type="Série")
