AlloCiné API v3

[CinéphOli]

Hi,

I patched PluginMovieAllocine.py myself in order to cope with their new
API v3. It works for me, no error message.

(you may wish to see also my msg in g.c.m.g.user)

I just found out on the web that Allociné shares the very same API (and
database structure!) with its sister sites Screenrush (UK,
screenrush.co.uk), Beyazperde (Turkish, beyazperde.com), Filmstarts
(German, filmstarts.de) and Sensacine (Spanish, sensacine.com).

For testing purposes, I did it the quick and dirty way, ie I copied and
pasted PluginMovieAllocine.py and simply replaced every occurrences of
allocine.fr with the domain names mentioned here above, keeping of
course the www.'s and api.'s as it is, then I adapted the "meta-info"
(site name, language,…) and saved of course under appropriate filenames
(doh!).

And… Voilà, it works, 4 new sites in various languages!

I didn't attach the files because a) it's quick and dirty, and b) it's
very easy to reproduce.

(From a programming point of view, I suppose it would be better to share
a common routine/object for all the retrievals of the json data, and
call that routine with a proper set of parameters to address the right
language version.)

It's also possible to go on the sites and retrieve the various logos to
display in Griffith.

HTH.

Hi this API is now obsolete as Allocine has been updated.
Can anyone help to upgrade using the new mechanism ?
This link shows the implementation using PHP : https://github.com/gromez/allocine-api

Thanks.

Hi,
  I wrote a plugin for Allocine without using the API.

To use this plugin, you have to change the file add.py a little bit.

At the line 273 (just after def get_from_web(self): ) you have to add

    global titletopass

(with 4 spaces on the beginning of the line)
and before the paragraph starting with try:
        if plugin_name == 'PluginMovieAllocinenoapi':
            titletopass = '"%s"' % self.search_movie.title

(8 spaces before if).

I know it is not perfect, but works for most of the time.  If you encounter a particular problem you would like to see fixed, let me know.

The current version of the plugin from the source code repository works like a charm for me.

With the "current plugin" I get the following errors.

So I'm glad to see there still is some activity around Griffith. And I am
glad to know some people with appropriate skill are maintaining it.
My problem is a similar one, only I'm looking for an actual plug-in for IMDB,
as thei have changed the layout of their pages again; This means can download
basic data for a film but you have to fill in manually quite some other data,
e.g. actors, contents etc.
That said I'd greatly appreciate if someone can tell where to find and
download an actually working copy of the "PluginMovieIMDB.py"

Thanks a lot

Many thanks for the new plugin, it worked fine; there was missing only the
production year when I tried an import (film: page eight)

[Michael Jahn]

I modified the plugin again. Please get a fresh copy from

http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/griffith/trunk/lib/plugins/movie/PluginMovieIMDB.py

and try your movie again.
