Kijkwijzer

Code Climate Build Status Gem Version

Kijkwijzer is the Dutch film/television-screening system. Since there is no proper API, this gem was made to remove the scraping bit from my own app-source. Additionally some helper methods have been added to make displaying the icons easier (the icons are included in this gem as a SVG-iconset).

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'kijkwijzer'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install kijkwijzer

Usage

Usage is simple:

Kijkwijzer.search("piano")

Gives you results of movies, documentaries etc with known ratings.

You can also filter by year:

Kijkwijzer.search("piano", {year: 2011})

Rails view-helpers (SVG icons)

To make things even easier I included the SVG-icon set. Simply use the two methods.

Somewhere in the top of your body, load the iconset definition:

<%= render_kijkwijzer_svg_definitions %>

Then to display the movie results use the view helper render_kijkwijzers:

<% Kijkwijzer.search("piano").each do |rating| %>
<h2><%= rating.title %></h2>
<p><%= render_kijkwijzers rating %></p>
<% end %>

Make sure you format the icons properly, otherwise you'll get huge icons ... I believe I've added plenty of classes for easy styling using css.
