get information for new movies on Netflix Australia

Better new to netflix

A tool to get data on new movies added to Netflix Australia.

A tool written in Python3 that scrapes the What's New On Netflix site for new movies added to Netflix Australia. It then queries the OMDb movie api for information about each movie, and adds the results to an sqlite database.

Requirements

• Python 3.6 - only because I used f-strings
• BeautifulSoup
• PonyORM
• Requests
• An OMDb api key

Installation

From a terminal run:

pip install -r requirements.txt
python setup.py

Usage

From a terminal run:

python main.py

or, to test the scrape without writing to the database, run:

python main.py --test

Other

• This is a work in progress. It's not class based because this is the limit of my knowledge currently.
• There are currently no tests.
• It will be subject to change, possibly radical change.
• I'm currently working on a Flask front-end.
