TMDB API Usage

TMDB API: This application uses the TMDB API to fetch movie data.

An example API Key based request looks like:

curl --request GET \
     --url 'https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/11?api_key=43f32466ca1ce72ff63dd88e6eeebdcd'

Reference: TMDB Documentation

• /discover: Search based on filters or definable values like ratings, certifications or release dates. Details refer to Here.
• /find: Find data with exsiting external IDs.(i.e. IMDB ID of a movie, TV show or person).

Available Scripts

In the project directory, you can run:

npm start

Runs the app in the development mode.\

npm test

Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.\

npm run build

Builds the app for production to the build folder.\

npm run eject

Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can't go back!

Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you're on your own.
