Rate Limit #404

For a normal usage, to retrieve a few titles at a time for personal use, you should not hit any limit. However if you try to access many entries in a short time, you will surely be blocked. I do not know the exact rate limit. Anyway, Cinemagoer is not thought to be a tool to mass-scan or mass-import the IMDb's data, and doing so would be against their terms of service. See https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cinemagoer/cinemagoer/master/DISCLAIMER.txt If you need to access only some basic information that are also available from these data sets ( https://www.imdb.com/interfaces/ ) please use the "S3 data access system" of Cinemagoer: https://cinemagoer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage/s3.html |
