No API keys. No rate limits. What is this? IScrapeMDB is a Python-based automation tool that scrapes detailed metadata from IMDb. Unlike basic scrapers that just grab a title and a rating, this tool digs deep. It extracts cast lists, full reviews, parental guides, runtime, directors, and recursively scrapes entire series episode lists. It uses Selenium to handle dynamic content, meaning it captures data that simple requests or BeautifulSoup scripts miss. Key Features: Browser Agnostic: Supports Chrome and Firefox. Deep Extraction: Grabs hidden reviews, cast roles, and parental guidance details. Series Support: Recursively scrapes every single episode of a TV show. Portable Data: Saves data locally in structured formats and generates an offline HTML viewer. Resilient: Skips missing data points without crashing the entire batch. Installation Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/BMYSTERIO/IscrapeMDB.git cd IscrapeMDB Install dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt Browser Setup: Ensure you have Chrome or Firefox installed. The script handles the drivers automatically. How to Use The main entry point is main.py. It is built to be flexible—whether you need data for one movie or a list of 500. 1. The Basics (Single Scrape) To scrape a single movie or series and save its data: python main.py link What happens? The tool identifies the media type (Movie vs Series).
