LinddM / love-my-movies

Love my movies, web + Redis project

After having our own html, css setup from Figma UIUX class

We are going to reuse this design to have a "Like/Dislike | Recommend/Not Recommend | Love/Hate" my Movies app

  • Movie Details
  • Trending Movies
• Not Extras, but required (MUST)
• You already now how to deliever it ;)

🎥 Result

The app will look like this:

• You will display the movie poster as an icon. (poster_path field)
• Movie Title (original_title field)
• Free Field (choose wisely the field you wish to display)
• The movie plot/synopsis (overview)
• Two vote buttons (UP/DOWN) which will increase/decrease the vote_count
• Vote Count which will initialize at vote_count
• Feel free to modify the layout to add anything you want. some suggested fields to display:
  • vote_average
  • runtime
  • genres
  • homepage
  • imdb_id (prob generate an IMDb link)
  • popularity

here only one box is shown, obviously you will work with a variable list of movies.

Usage

Run the app with docker.

docker pull redis
docker run -d --name loveMovie -p 6379:6379 redis
docker pull lindseymaite/love-my-movies:4.1
docker run -it -p 5000:5000 lindseymaite/love-my-movies:4.1

The Movie Database API

We are going to use The Movie Database API 3 TMDd to retrieve our initial data.

You better create your own account and respect the request limits, that I why I'm including some .json files already.

This is the API's full URL

Some Examples

Discover Movies

The Request URL was

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?api_key=<<api_key>>&language=en-US&sort_by=popularity.desc&include_adult=false&include_video=false&page=1

I replaced <<api_key>> with my own API_KEY

Which resulted in discover_movies.json

Movie Details

The Request URL was

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/475557?api_key=<<api_key>>

Which gave me joker_movie_details.json

Trending Movies

Request URL was

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/trending/movie/week?api_key=<api_key>>

Which gave me trending_movies.json

Not Extras, but required (MUST)

• Use Flask as backend (for now)
• Use Redis as the counter DB (incr/decr vote_count)
• Use Redis to store any details or additional info for the movies (JSON respond)
• Use Redis as a cache.
• CI/CD (you can use GithubActions (beta) / Gitlab CI /Travis/ Circle CI)
• Dockerfile with a valid docker build & push to a valid Docker Hub repository.
• A good html/css layout of your own.
• Modularize everything with files and functions.
• Use javascript to "Click and show more details of the movie"
• IT WILL NOT RUN under python, but Docker, you must provide under the README's Usage how to run it using Docker commands

You already now how to deliever it ;)

• FORK it
• WORK it
• GIT TAG it
• DELIVER it
