Movie_recommender

A Movie recommender website based on neural search built using jina as backend and streamlit as frontend
Original issue here
Dataset from this site. Movies are updated upto year 2018

Idea:

Search for movie recommendation using any keyword

Tech used?

Backend: Jina
Frontend: Streamlit

How to use?

Clone the repository in the local machine

• Create a new virtual environment in python

python -m venv movie

Switch to the new virtual environment

source movie/bin/activate

Download the requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt

Run the backend that is the server:

python -u backend/app.py

Lauch the frontend, in another terminal:

streamlit run frontend.py

Upon executing the above commands a local host will be launched in your default browser or else head over to http://localhost:8501 to search your favorite movies for watchlist.

Few things to note:

• Jina works best in linux and Mac os. Please configure for windows from jina website
• After running the program once an workspace folder will be created. Note before running the program again delete the workspace folder
• If you want to update movies only change DocumentArray in data_extractor.py
• During add new dataset to the code please change the value in frontend if all the attributes of movie are not present in the dataset
