How to use

Set up appropriate API keys

To access TMDB API and Spotify API, available API keys are necessary. You can register to TMDB here to get your own API Key, and here to register a client ID and client secret for Spoify API.

Tip

We have attached our test API keys on Canvas for testing purposes. Please use them if you don't want to create your own. :)

Steps

1. Save your API keys as environment variables. MVSer will fetch API keys accordingly.

# In console.
export TMDB_API_KEY=<your_TMDB_API_token>
export SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID=<your_spotipy_client_id>
export SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET=<your_spotify_client_secert>

2. Run MVSer

from movie.mvs import MVS

mvser = MVS()
mvser.start()
