I am trying to get IMDB info using JavaScript. The following code is working for Title, Year, IMDB link but when I am trying to get "Runtime", "Director", "Released" etc I am getting as undefined. Please help!
This is the data formate: https://www.omdbapi.com/?i=tt4779682&apikey=ba1f4581
Code:
var data;
function getanswer(q){
$.get("https://www.omdbapi.com/?s="+q+"&apikey=ba1f4581", function(rawdata){
var rawstring =JSON.stringify(rawdata);
data =JSON.parse(rawstring);
var title = data.Search[0].Title;
var year = data.Search[0].Year;
var director = data.Search[0].Director;
var imdburl="https://www.imdb.com/title/"+data.Search[0].imdbID+"/";
var posterurl =data.Search[0].Poster;
document.getElementById('answer').innerHTML="<h1>"+title+"</h1><br> <img src= '"+posterurl+"'><br><p> Year Released:"+year+"</p> <br><p> Year Released:"+director+"</p> <br> <p> IMDB page: <a href='"+imdburl+"'target='_blank'>"+imdburl+"</a></p>"; }); }<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<html>
<head></head>
<body onload="getanswer(document.getElementById('querybox').value)">
<!doctype html> <input value="The Meg" onkeyup="getanswer(document.getElementById('querybox').value)" id="querybox"> <div id="answer"></div>
</body>
</html>According to the api documentation, you were using s parameter that would not return Runtime/Director/etc. You could use the t parameter and remove Search[0].
Below is the code that would work:
var data;
function getanswer(q){
$.get("https://www.omdbapi.com/?t="+q+"&apikey=ba1f4581", function(rawdata){
var rawstring =JSON.stringify(rawdata);
data =JSON.parse(rawstring);
console.log(data);
var title = data.Title;
var year = data.Year;
var director = data.Director;
var imdburl="https://www.imdb.com/title/"+data.imdbID+"/";
var posterurl =data.Poster;
document.getElementById('answer').innerHTML="<h1>"+title+"</h1><br> <img src= '"+posterurl+"'><br><p> Year Released:"+year+"</p> <br><p> Year Released:"+director+"</p> <br> <p> IMDB page: <a href='"+imdburl+"'target='_blank'>"+imdburl+"</a></p>"; }); }
