The Public Movie Database (TPMDB) is a repository with the tools I used to create one of the biggest public movie databases on the internet. In this folder you wil find all the files you will need to recreate a project like this one. You will need to modify are the following variables:
·The folder where the txt files will be downloaded.
·The folder where the MOVIES_DOWNLOADED file is.
·The folder where the MOVIES_ONE_LINE is.
Once you have changed this. you will need to run first the TPMDB_scraper.py, then TPMDB_creator to create the database once all the movie information has been downloaded. In case you don't want to run the web scraper, the movies.txt and movies_one_line.txt files contain all the movies from letterboxd up to 06/08/2021.
Anyway, I think the code has all the explanations one may need to understand it. Please, in case you use it remember to mention me.
