Hi all!
This release brings the addition of two new features:
Role scraping
The first feature is a great contribution from @jonathanhouge in #13: the ability to scrape all films from any {role} in the Cast or Crew section of film pages. In practical terms:
- Need a list of all films in which Anne Hathaway stars as an actor? Input the URL https://letterboxd.com/actor/anne-hathaway/
- To see films that Martin Scorcese produced, use https://letterboxd.com/producer/martin-scorsese/
A list of all scrapable roles can be found in the changelog. We'd like to have an exhaustive list, so please let me know if you find roles that are not included in there!
Film description
The second feature is the addition of scraping the description/synopsis of films to the new Description column. This addition was initiated from a request by @meanjoep92 in #2. Limited testing has been done here, so let me know if you find any bugs.
An example of both of the new features can be seen in /example_outputs/actor-anne-hathaway-films.csv. I hope you can make good use of them! 😃
Again thanks to everyone that uses the project and special thanks to the people that are contributing and asking for new features! ❤️
Cheers,
Arno
