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.
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)
