      • Tip:

        Many projects have good small tasks that can teach newcomers how the project works. Now's your chance to share one of them!

        Include URLs if relevant (we'll automatically linkify them).

      • Example:

        Someone could improve the photo upload dialog box so that it lets you resize the photo before sending it to the web.

  • Q: What is a bug or issue with IMDbPY that you've been putting off, neglecting, or just plain avoiding?

      develop a mobile version.

      IMDbPY is mostly ready to work on mobile devices, but it needs more development in this area, and some GUI for mobile devices.

        I don't know how to get started with internationalizing my app.

        Bug 392 about printing was filed five years ago, and I don't even know if printing still works.

        I want help from a C coder writing a Maildir patch for Alpine.

About IMDbPY

(logo)

IMDbPY is a Python package useful to retrieve and manage the data of the IMDb movie database about movies, people, characters and companies.

Platform-independent and written in pure Python (and few C lines), it can retrieve data from both the IMDb's web server and a local copy of the whole database.

IMDbPY package can be very easily used by programmers and developers to provide access to the IMDb's data to their programs.

from the profile of Davide Alberani (alberanid)
