Movie SDK

Description

Movie SDK is a software development kit that enables developers to easily integrate movie search and retrieval functionality into their applications. This SDK interacts with an external movie database API to fetch movie details, including random movie suggestions, specific movie searches, and detailed movie descriptions.

Features

• Fetch Random Movies: Retrieve a list of 10 random movies for display on home screens or for movie discovery features.
• Search Movies: Allows users to search for movies based on titles or keywords.
• Get Movie Details: Provides detailed information about a specific movie, including title, year, rank, actors, and more.

Installation

To install Movie SDK in your project, follow these steps:

yarn add git@github.com:angulemathias/movies-sdk.git

Or from npm:

yarn add ma-movies-sdk

Or if you're cloning directly from a repository:

git clone https://github.com/AnguleMathias/movies-sdk.git
cd movie-sdk
yarn
