Adding new sites:

Inside the script, there is a list of dictionaries that contains of all the sites, and the data necessary to check IMDb against them. Each site is a dictionary with the following attributes:

• name: The site name, abbreviated.
• icon (optional): Icon for the site.
• searchUrl: The URL to perform the search against, see below for how to tailor the string to a site.
• matchRegex: The string which appears if the searchUrl doesn't return a result.
• postiveMatch (optional): Changes the test to return true if the searchUrl does return a result that matches matchRegex
• TV (optional): If true, it means that this site will only show up on TV pages. By default, sites only show up on movie pages.
• both (optional): Means that the site will show up on both movie and TV pages.
• spaceEncode (optional): Changes the character used to encode spaces in movie titles. The default is '+'.
• goToUrl (optional): Different URL used for link (instead of searchUrl).
• loggedOutRegex (optional): If any text on the page matches this regex, the site is treated as being logged out.
• configName (optional): Use this to allow changing names without breaking existing users.
• inSecondSearchBar (optional): Places site at the second searchable bar.
• inThirdSearchBar (optional): Places site at the third searchable bar.
• rateLimit (optional): Connection rate limit in milliseconds. Default is 200. On the Search/List pages if rateLimit<=1000 then it will be increased by a factor of 4.
• mPOST: HTTP request by POST method. For the sites that doesn't support GET.

Parameters you can use inside the URL:

• %tt%: The IMDb id with the tt prefix (e.g. tt0055630).
• %nott%: The IMDb id without the tt prefix (e.g. 0055630).
• %tvdbid%: The TVDb id.
• %tmdbid%: The TMDb id.
• %search_string%: The movie title (e.g. Yojimbo). Depends on your preferences at www.imdb.com/preferences/general .
• %search_string_orig%: The original movie title (e.g. Yôjinbô). Reverts to %search_string% if an original title is not set at IMDb.
• %year%: The movie year (e.g. 1961).

See the script for examples.

Versioning:

Follows a bastardization of the semver standard:

• Patch versions will not change behavior, only the URL/settings for trackers.
• Minor versions will definitely change code, although behavior may in fact remain the same.
• Major versions will definitely change behavior, although it will only be increased at the discretion of the current maintainer.
