Is there a way to get the info when the next TV episode will be aired?

For example, let's say that TV show "foobar" is currently on S04E12, and S04E13 will be aired 20.3.2016. - how to get that date?

Looking at the Tmdb::TV.detail(some_id)['seasons'].last gives air_date, episode_count, id, poster_pathand season_number

When I visit https://github.com/ahmetabdi/themoviedb-example, I get a 404 not found error.

Hello,

I see a (hopefully) improvement for this gem.

There are several entities that have some attributes, like Movie or Genre, but when a list is retrieved from TMDB it's a hash instead of an array of those entities.

Wouldn't be better to have entities in lists too?

There is a case when I see almost necessary: Jobs.

I know it's not implemented yet, but I was going to do it when this idea came to my mind.

A job belongs to a department and has a name, the Job.list method would return something like the following:

{"jobs"=>
  [{"department"=>"Writing",
    "job_list"=> ["Screenplay",
                  "Author",
                   .....
                   "Opera",
                   "Co-Writer"]},
   {"department"=>"Directing",
    "job_list"=> ["Director",
                  "Script Supervisor",
                   "Other",
                   "Layout",
                   "Script Coordinator",
                   "Special Guest Director"]}
...
]}

But we would already have an entity for every element of that list and the user should iterate over that hash, making the method almost useless.

My point here is that the method should return an array of Jobs objects, with the department and the name as set attributes and I would do the same for the rest of entities.

If wish you see this interesenting and if that's the case I could submit a pull request.

Is it also possible to find any movie or TV serie by its IMDB number? ThemovieDB supports it. But i cant find any entry points in the code base which support it.

For reference: http://docs.themoviedb.apiary.io/#get-%2F3%2Ffind%2F%7Bid%7D

Use dish gem to return plain objects instead of hashes

I've set up a nice Travis for my project but since I started using themoviedb when I push my changes Travis can't manage to run bundle install --deployment, apparently because of the httparty dependency.

There was a LoadError while loading themoviedb.gemspec: 
cannot load such file -- httparty from
/home/travis/build/jerefrer/opentheatre/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.0.0/bundler/gems/themoviedb-a88d6b607c5e/themoviedb.gemspec:3:in
`<main>'
Does it try to require a relative path? That's been removed in Ruby 1.9.

Any idea why ?

Hi!

I have a little problem with searching for tv shows.
I'm trying to search to shows based on there name. So I'm doing the following:

search = Tmdb::Search.new
search.resource('tv')
search.query('Mad Men')
search.fetch

But the fetch returns nil while searching on the TMDB gives some results.

What am I doing wrong here? Can anybody help?

Thanks for this gem. :)

Is it possible to query the database with the lanuage parameter that is described in the api docs? I want to be able to fetch the german version of the description.

What's the point of using Hashugar? It doesn't look like a mature library.

h1 = { a: 5, b: 6 }.to_hashugar
h2 = { a: 5, b: 6 }.to_hashugar
h1 == h2 # => false

Hi!

Is there any support for fetching different pages of movies and tv shows?

For instance, when fetching the most popular Movies you can pass a page parameter to the api:
http://docs.themoviedb.apiary.io/reference/movies/moviepopular/get

But can I do it through this library?

In 0.0.14, attempting to use the API with a nil or invalid API key caused an exception (a weird one, having to do with a failed 'gsub', but at least you knew something was wrong.)

In 0.0.17, the following scenarios give identical results:

• Call Movie.detail(x) with valid API key, where x is a nonexistent TMDb resource id
• Call Movie.detail(x) with INVALID API key, where x is a nonexistent TMDB resource id
• Call Movie.detail(x) with INVALID API key, where x is a VALID existing TMDB resource id
  All three calls return a Movie resource whose attributes are all nil.

This is bad for programmers because you can't distinguish between an "invalid API key" error and an error due to supplying a nonexistent ID.

Some methods like Tmdb::Movie.search return a collection of Tmdb::Movie objects. However, there are ones that return hashes (Tmdb::Movie.popular, Tmdb::Movie.now_playing, etc.). Is there a reason these methods return pure hashes? If not, I can submit a pull request with these changes.

Does this really need an HTTParty '~> 0.11.0' version specification? It is causing conflicts for me, HTTParty is now up to 0.13.1.

OpenStruct

This will allow us to skip the definition of attributes and generate them on the go. It'll make it future-proof in case new attributes are added or existing ones are changed.

I've created a autocomplete searchfield in which users can type a movie title and it will show all the results like this > http://i.imgur.com/Si9Fffv.png

The next thing I want to do is give the user a option to save a movie title to the database. As you can see in the image every result has a "add" button. This is a link with the ID of the movie in it's target. It can be anything like a button or a span etc.

When a user clicks on the add button I want to store the movie title of the movie with that ID in my database.

I've generated a model called movie and a collumn called title. I've also generated a controller called movie and I've created a form field which lets the user type the movie title and then save it to do movie model > title collumn. But this was more for testing. Like I said above I want to save the movie title from a specific ID into my database.

I know how to get the JSON respons from TMDB api,
click

But what I don't know is how to link my "add" button to that response and then grab some data like title or poster url and post it in my database.

The tests currently fail because the vote count changed. You should consider changing it to vcr or a similar aproach that replays the answer you got from themoviedb instead of using the real data.

I understand that this gem isn't maintained anymore, but I implore you to reject the 0.0.25 published gem, and replace it with a 0.1.0 version.

The reason is that 0.0.25 introduces a huge breaking change with the API by removing hashuger thus changing the api from:

@movie.backdrops

to

@movie['backdrops']

Bundler has a certain expectation that it can bump the patch version of a gem without expecting any major changes. Most developers have this expectation as well and regularly update their gems this way. By doing this, this would install a version of this gem that would have serious compatibility consequences. If it were 0.1.0, it would not get installed without direct effort by the developer.

Again, I understand that this gem has become unmaintained, but bumping it to a 0.1.0 before doing this would be, in my opinion, a more responsible thing to do.

or Standard, to enforce code style

Is this already supported?

Hello, I'm not a developer but I'd love to use this gem in my Jekyll website, to retrieve movie data and automatically add links to TMDb entries for movies I add to a simple markdown list.

Practically, I'd like the gem to read movie titles from a simple markdown list (or a CSV table) and transform titles to links to their page on TMDb.

Could this be possible?
If yes, how?

(obviously I get that what I ask for is something specific and strictly tied with my needs, nevertheless I may adapt to some similar simpler usage)

Thank you very much and sorry for the dumb question.

No issue here, just wanted to see if you had any ideas on how I might be able to integrate the results from the gem into my application's DB? Trying to reduce load times by avoid excessive calls outside the DB.

Hey,

First, thanks for the recent updates! I got a problem with posters for TV series, and I think it's the same for movies. I'm trying to get some posters for series but the gem does not return anything for some series like Chuck and it seems to be related to the language of the backdrop/poster. For example, The Sopranos has many posters: http://www.themoviedb.org/tv/1398-the-sopranos/posters

But the only one I get is the english one, even if I delete the language config thing in the gem. For Chuck, all the posters on tmdb don't have any language, so I get no poster or even backdrop. the gem returns:

{"backdrops"=>[], "id"=>1404, "posters"=>[]}

When I use the API URI directly, the backdrops/posters are visible: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/1404/images?api_key=xx

Any idea how to fix this?

Thank you very much for you work!

I'm getting this error all the time "cannot load such file -- themoviedb" and I don't know how to fix it, any advice on this?

I want to make calls in the background using the sidekiq gem so I need a thread-safe way to change the language for single requests. Currently there's no request-wide language setting, only the global Tmdb::Api.language("de") setting which – I believe – is not thread-safe. Or is it?

If not, it would be great to have a thread-safe way of making language-specific requests. E.g. the following two requests could be run at the same time in different threads of sidekiq and I don't want this to result in the wrong languages at the wrong place:

Tmdb::Api.language("de")
Tmdb::Movie.find("batman")

Tmdb::Api.language("fr")
Tmdb::Movie.find("batman")
