Hi all,
yes: since a recent redesign of the web pages, IMDbPY is badly broken.

We started working on master to fix it, but there's still much to do;
see https://github.com/alberanid/imdbpy/issues/103

As always, any help is welcome.

If you want to start fixing something, run the tox and chose one of
the parsers you want to work on (and tell us on that issue, so that we
can avoid duplicate work).

Thanks!

Hi,

I'm working on the movie combined parser. My primary goal is to make the
tests pass, so I won't look at the parts that are not covered by the
tests yet.

And a hint about the test suite. Running tox will try to run all tests
for all supported Python versions. If you want to do a quick test about
the parser you're working on, you can use something like:

py.test tests/test_http_movie_combined.py -k genre

This will only run the test functions which have the word "genre" in
their names.

Hi all,
in other news, it seems that the 'akas' subdomain now
always redirects to 'www' and that the 'combined' page now
redirects to '/reference'

Not sure about the implications, but probably we'll have less
information about movies and tv series.

Regarding the fixes, if nobody else is already working on them,
I can have a look at all the entries related to 'series' and 'episodes'
in the combined parsers (but probably not very soon, having a flu
and some scheduled trips ahead)

Thanks,

I suppose you already know about this, but just in case, I noticed that imdbPY isn't returning info for 'producer', 'cinematography' and 'editor'.

I didn't change my code, which was working previously. If I have to change something, please tell me.
