Extract media information from torrent-like filename
A python port of Jānis' awesome library written in javascript.
Extract all possible media information present in filenames. Multiple regex rules are applied on filename string each of which extracts correponding information from the filename. If a regex rule matches, the corresponding part is removed from the filename. In the end, the remaining part is taken as the title of the content.
Online APIs by providers like TMDb, TVDb and OMDb don't react to well to search queries which include any kind of extra information. To get proper results from these APIs, only the title of the content should be provided as the search query where this library comes into play. The accuracy of the results can be improved by passing in the year which can also be extracted using this library.
import PTN
info = PTN.parse('A freakishly cool movie or TV episode')
print info # All details that were parsed
PTN works well for both movies and TV episodes. All meaningful information is
extracted and returned together in a dictionary. The text which could not be
parsed is returned in the excess
field.
PTN.parse('San Andreas 2015 720p WEB-DL x264 AAC-JYK')
# {
# 'group': 'JYK',
# 'title': 'San Andreas',
# 'resolution': '720p',
# 'codec': 'x264',
# 'year': '2015',
# 'audio': 'AAC',
# 'quality': 'WEB-DL'
# }
PTN.parse('The Martian 2015 540p HDRip KORSUB x264 AAC2 0-FGT')
# {
# 'group': '0-FGT',
# 'title': 'The Martian',
# 'resolution': '540p',
# 'excess': ['KORSUB', '2'],
# 'codec': 'x264',
# 'year': 2015,
# 'audio': 'AAC',
# 'quality': 'HDRip'
# }
PTN.parse('Mr Robot S01E05 HDTV x264-KILLERS[ettv]')
# {
# 'episode': 5,
# 'season': 1,
# 'title': 'Mr Robot',
# 'codec': 'x264',
# 'group': 'KILLERS[ettv]'
# 'quality': 'HDTV'
# }
PTN.parse('friends.s02e01.720p.bluray-sujaidr')
# {
# 'episode': 1,
# 'season': 2,
# 'title': 'friends',
# 'resolution': '720p',
# 'group': 'sujaidr',
# 'quality': 'bluray'
# }
PTN does not gaurantee the fields group
, excess
and episodeName
as these
fields might be interchanged with each other. This shoudn't affect most
applications since episode name can be fetched from an online database
after getting the season and episode number correctly.
