API is down :(
Almenon opened this issue · comments
Looks like netlfix roulette was bought by reelgood and they stopped providing the API.
I was using the API for my reddit bot. Is there any other netflix API's I can use? If not I guess I just will have to make do with hardcoding netflix links.
I don't know how official this API is because I couldn't find any web pages out there describing it, but I think many have reversed engineered it. There is an api at https://api.justwatch.com which appears to be the used on http://www.justwatch.com. Do a search for GitHub projects using justwatch for examples of it's use.
Did you guys found a alternative for netlfix roulette ? I started a udemy course that uses it but now I just can't find link provided. http://netflixroulette.net/api/api.php?director=
The https://api.justwatch.com seems also down and I can't find another.
The api.justwatch.com is not down. Remember to issue the request as an HTTP Post. Use something like Postman to test it. In Postman if I issue the following request:
URI: https://api.justwatch.com/titles/en_US/popular
Post Data: {"query":"Avengers: Age of Ultron","content_types":["movie"],"providers":["amp,nfx"]}
Content-Type: application/json
I get back a valid response:

I ended up using TMDb. Easy auth and I think it has more data than this one. And the model is fairly similar, although a little more complicated.
