Description¶
This widget is designed for searching any movie by its title or actors and the output is 25 reviews of the film. The widget will use the imdbpy library to import the movies’ data.
Interface¶
Figure 1: Movie Reviews widget interface - search by Title
The Movie Reviews widget lets the user make a search on the IMDB library.
The Search button searches the database for entries matching user’s input.
The Corpus section is a container where the user’s movie selections are stored. The user can add or remove the movies to and from their corpus or clear the corpus entirely.
The Send button triggers the emission of a segmentation to the output connection(s). When selected, the Send automatically checkbox disables the button and the widget attempts to automatically emit a segmentation at every modification of its interface.
