SDKs and Libraries

This page provides information about available SDKs, libraries, and client tools, along with installation instructions and usage examples.

To make it easier to integrate with the TMDB API, we provide and support a variety of SDKs (Software Development Kits) and client libraries for popular programming languages.

These libraries handle authentication, request formatting, and response parsing, allowing you to focus on building your application.

Official SDKs and Libraries

The following are officially supported SDKs and libraries for the TMDB API:

JavaScript

• Library: tmdb-api-client
• Installation:

npm install tmdb-api-client

• Usage example

    const TMDB = require('tmdb-api-client');
    const client = new TMDB('YOUR_API_KEY');

    client.movies.getPopular()
        .then(response => console.log(response.results))
        .catch(error => console.error(error));

• Library: tmdb-api-client
• Installation:

npm install tmdb-api-client

• Usage example

    const TMDB = require('tmdb-api-client');
    const client = new TMDB('YOUR_API_KEY');

    client.movies.getPopular()
        .then(response => console.log(response.results))
        .catch(error => console.error(error));

• Library: tmdbv3api

• Installation:

pip install tmdbv3api

• Usage example

     from tmdbv3api import TMDb, Movie

    tmdb = TMDb()
    tmdb.api_key = 'YOUR_API_KEY'

    movie = Movie()
    popular_movies = movie.popular()

    for m in popular_movies:
        print(m.title)

• Library: tmdb-java

• Installation: Add the following dependency to your pom.xml (Maven):

  <dependency>
      <groupId>com.github.holgerbrandl</groupId>
      <artifactId>tmdb-java</artifactId>
      <version>1.0.0</version>
  </dependency>
  

• Usage examples:

    import com.github.holgerbrandl.tmdb.TMDbClient;
    import com.github.holgerbrandl.tmdb.movies.Movie;

    public class Main {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
        TMDbClient client = new TMDbClient("YOUR_API_KEY");
        List<Movie> popularMovies = client.getPopularMovies();

        for (Movie movie : popularMovies) {
            System.out.println(movie.getTitle());
        }
    }
}

• Library: php-tmdb-api

• Installation:

composer require php-tmdb/api

• Usage example

    require 'vendor/autoload.php';

    use Tmdb\Client;
    use Tmdb\Repository\MovieRepository;

    $client = new Client(['api_token' => 'YOUR_API_KEY']);
    $movieRepository = new MovieRepository($client);

    $popularMovies = $movieRepository->getPopular();

        foreach ($popularMovies as $movie) {
            echo $movie->getTitle() . PHP_EOL;

          }

Community-Maintained Libraries

In addition to the official SDKs, the TMDB community has contributed libraries for other programming languages. These are not officially supported but may be useful:

Go

• Library: go-tmdb

• GitHub: go-tmdb

• Installation:

go get github.com/cyruzin/go-tmdb

• Usage examples:

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/cyruzin/go-tmdb"
)

func main() {
    tmdbClient, err := tmdb.Init("YOUR_API_KEY")
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }

    movies, err := tmdbClient.GetMoviePopular(nil)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }

    for _, movie := range movies.Results {
        fmt.Println(movie.Title)
    }
}

• Library: go-tmdb

• GitHub: go-tmdb

• Installation:

go get github.com/cyruzin/go-tmdb

• Usage examples:

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/cyruzin/go-tmdb"
)

func main() {
    tmdbClient, err := tmdb.Init("YOUR_API_KEY")
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }

    movies, err := tmdbClient.GetMoviePopular(nil)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }

    for _, movie := range movies.Results {
        fmt.Println(movie.Title)
    }
}

• Library: TMDbLib

• GitHub: TMDbLib

• Installation:

dotnet add package TMDbLib

• Usage example:

using TMDbLib.Client;

var client = new TMDbClient("YOUR_API_KEY");
var popularMovies = client.GetMoviePopularListAsync().Result;

foreach (var movie in popularMovies.Results)
{
    Console.WriteLine(movie.Title);
}
