Python client implementation for The TVDB REST API

tvdb-rest

tvdb-rest is a client implementation of the TVDB REST API. This library does not support the "old" XML api!

tvdb-rest supports Python 3.4+. Python 2.7 may work, but isn't supported.

Usage

To use the REST API, you need an TVDB API key. See http://thetvdb.com/wiki/index.php?title=Programmers_API on how to obtain one.

from tvdbrest.client import TVDB
api = TVDB("myusername", "myuserkey", "myapikey")

for language in api.languages():
	print(language)

# search for series
search_results = api.search(name='The Simpsons')
for series in search_results:
	print(series)

# fetch series by id
simpsons = api.series(71663)

# access actors of series object
for actor in simpsons.actors():
	print("%s as %s" % (actor, ', '.join(actor.role.split('|'))))

# list all episodes for series (pagination handled automatically)
for episode in simpsons.episodes():
	print(episode)
