Python IMDbPY - Getting the countries of the series

IMDbPY is a Python package useful for accessing the IMDb movie database programmatically. With IMDbPY, you can retrieve a plethora of information about movies, series, cast, crew, and much more.

To fetch the countries associated with a particular series, you can use the following steps:

  1. Initialize an instance of the IMDb class.
  2. Use the search_movie() function to find a list of movies or series that match a given title.
  3. Use the first result (or the appropriate one) to fetch the movie or series details using get_movie().
  4. Access the 'countries' key from the movie or series data to get the list of countries associated with it.

Here's a basic example:

from imdb import IMDb # Create an instance of the IMDb class ia = IMDb() # Search for the series by its title series_list = ia.search_movie('Breaking Bad') # Assuming the first result is the correct one; get its full details series = ia.get_movie(series_list[0].movieID) # Get the countries associated with the series countries = series.get('countries', []) print(countries)

Replace 'Breaking Bad' with the title of the series you're interested in. The output will be a list of countries where the series was produced.

Note: Always make sure to handle cases where the required data might not be present, as shown above with the .get('countries', []) method. This ensures that if the 'countries' key is absent from the series data, an empty list is returned instead of raising an error.
