How Can We Reach The Information With The Opensubtitles Api?

I'm trying to take the first download 'str' zip link. I don't need more than one file of information. When I tried a not famous movie such as Shame 2011 My code worked but when I t

Solution 1:

Check out opensubtitle's new API - here's the documentation. It's way easier to use than the older API.

Grabbing subtitles is as easy as

    headers = {
        'Api-Key': api_key,
    }

    params = (
        ('imdb_id', movie_id),
    )

    response = requests.get('https://www.opensubtitles.com/api/v1/subtitles', headers=headers, params=params)

Where api_key is your api_key from their website, and movie_id is the movie's IMDB id (e.g., Titanic's ID is 0120338, and can be found within the URL of its movie page on IMDb - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120338/)

An example of the response returned looks like this:

To download a file you would take the 'file_id' and input it into a download request to the Open Subtitle API like this:

headers = {
    'Api-Key': api_key,
    'Authorization': auth,
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
}

data = '{"file_id":5274788}'

response = requests.post('https://www.opensubtitles.com/api/v1/download', headers=headers, data=data)

Where auth is the authorization key you get from their API (/api/v1/login endpoint):

headers = {
   'Api-Key': api_key,
   'Content-Type': 'application/json',
}
    
data = '{"username":"__USERNAME","password":"__PASSWORD"}'

response = requests.post('https://www.opensubtitles.com/api/v1/login', headers=headers, data=data)

and __USERNAME and __PASSWORD is your account's username and password.

There is a solution

import requests

from pprint import pprint

url = "https://www.opensubtitles.com/api/v1/login"
headers = {'api-key':'YOUR API KEY', 'content-type': 'application/json'}
user = {'username': 'YOUR USERNAME', 'password': "YOUR USER PASSWORD"}

try:
    login_response = requests.post(url, data=json.dumps(user), headers=headers)
    login_response.raise_for_status()
    login_json_response = login_response.json()
    login_token = login_json_response['token']
except:
    print("Something wrong check again...")
