Scrapping SWAPI using six degrees of separation approach.

Interacting with the Star Wars API

Do you want to have a Star Wars Database inside a Docker Postgres Container in your computer? Then look no further!

To make it work simply clone the repo and run: docker-compose up -d --build

It will run 2 containers, one with a postgres Database and another with a python script that will scrappe the SWAPI.

In this mini-project I wanted to get all information from the Star Wars API using a six degrees of seperation approach. The program will start with Luke Skywalker and get all his connections to films, starships, planets, etc. Then for each connection I will get their connections and so on and so forth. This way I will end up with all the elements and their details from the Star Wars API with needing to know them beforehand.

May the force be with you!

Special thank to Snorre for this great idea

To connect to the Database you can use DBeaver (dbeaver.io) and use the following credentials:

PASSWORD: "pass"

USER: postgres

DBNAME: postgres
