IMDB rating using cURL and PHP - sarvsav - 08-25-2013
A script to find the rating of any imdb movie.
How to use,
php imdb.php <movie name>
Ex :
$ php imdb.php trtanic
Your movie Titanic (1997) has 7.6 ratings.
PHP Code:
<?php

$characters = count($argv)-1;
if(isset($argv[1]))
$movie_name=$argv[1]."+";
else
exit(0);
for($i=2;$i<$characters+1;$i++)
$movie_name.= $argv[$i]."+";
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,'https://www.google.co.in/search?q='.$movie_name.'imdb');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$movie_link = curl_exec($ch);
preg_match('#www\.imdb\.com\/title\/tt\d+#',$movie_link,$matchme);
$imdb_url = $matchme[0];
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$imdb_url."/");
$movie_data = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
preg_match('#ratingValue\"\>\d\.\d#',$movie_data,$matches);
$rating = explode(">",$matches[0]);
$name = $movie_data;
preg_match('#<title>.+</title>#',$name,$name_match);
$name_match = explode(")",$name_match[0]);
$name_match = explode(">",$name_match[0]);
echo "Your movie ".$name_match[1].") "."has ".$rating[1]." ratings.\n";
