What our users say

Andre Exner

"For TUI Musement, Airbyte cut development time in half and enabled dynamic customer experiences."

Chase Zieman

“Airbyte helped us accelerate our progress by years, compared to our competitors. We don’t need to worry about connectors and focus on creating value for our users instead of building infrastructure. That’s priceless. The time and energy saved allows us to disrupt and grow faster.”

Rupak Patel
"With Airbyte, we could just push a few buttons, allow API access, and bring all the data into Google BigQuery. By blending all the different marketing data sources, we can gain valuable insights."
To access data from TMDb, you need to create an account and obtain an API key. Sign up on the TMDb website, navigate to the API section in your account settings, and generate an API key. This key will authenticate your requests to the TMDb API.
Using your API key, construct HTTP requests to fetch the desired data from TMDb. For instance, if you want to get a list of popular movies, you can make a GET request to `https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/popular?api_key=YOUR_API_KEY`. Use a programming language like Python or JavaScript to automate these requests and handle the JSON responses.
Once you have retrieved the data, parse the JSON responses to extract the relevant information. This can be done using JSON parsing libraries available in your chosen programming language (e.g., `json` module in Python). Extract the fields you need, such as movie titles, release dates, and ratings.
If you haven't already, create a Google Cloud account and set up a project. Enable the Pub/Sub API in the Google Cloud Console. You may also need to set up billing information if this is your first time using GCP services.
In the Google Cloud Console, navigate to the Pub/Sub section and create a new topic. A topic is a named resource to which messages are sent by publishers. Note the name of your topic, as it will be used in subsequent steps to send messages.
Use a programming language with Google Cloud SDK support to publish messages to your Pub/Sub topic. For example, in Python, you can use the `google-cloud-pubsub` library. Initialize a publisher client and publish messages containing the parsed TMDb data to your topic. Ensure each message is correctly formatted as a JSON string.
Example in Python:
```python
from google.cloud import pubsub_v1
project_id = "your-project-id"
topic_id = "your-topic-id"
publisher = pubsub_v1.PublisherClient()
topic_path = publisher.topic_path(project_id, topic_id)
# Example movie data message
movie_data = {
"title": "Example Movie",
"release_date": "2023-01-01",
"rating": 8.5
}
# Publish the message
future = publisher.publish(topic_path, json.dumps(movie_data).encode("utf-8"))
print(f"Published message ID: {future.result()}")
```
After setting up the script, test it to ensure data is correctly being fetched from TMDb and published to your Pub/Sub topic. Use the Google Cloud Console to monitor your Pub/Sub topic and inspect the messages being received. Make any necessary adjustments to your script or configurations based on the results of your test.
By following these steps, you can move data from TMDb to Google Pub/Sub without using third-party connectors or integrations.
FAQs
What is ETL?
ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.
TMDb is a community built movie and TV database. The Movie Database (TMDb) is a well known, popular, user editable database for movies and TV shows. TMDb.org, which is a crowd-sourced movie information database used by many film-related consoles, sites and apps, like XBMC, Myth TV and Plex. The Movie Database (TMDb) is a database of TV shows and movies which permits users to edit data. Since 2008, the users have been editing and adding the data through TMDb.
The TMDb (The Movie Database) API provides access to a wide range of data related to movies and TV shows. The following are the categories of data that can be accessed through the TMDb API:
- Movie data: This includes information about movies such as title, release date, runtime, budget, revenue, genres, production companies, and more.
- TV show data: This includes information about TV shows such as title, air date, episode count, season count, networks, genres, and more.
- People data: This includes information about people involved in movies and TV shows such as actors, directors, writers, and producers.
- Keyword data: This includes information about keywords associated with movies and TV shows such as plot keywords, genres, and more.
- Collection data: This includes information about collections of movies such as franchises, trilogies, and more.
- Review data: This includes information about reviews of movies and TV shows such as user ratings and reviews.
- Image data: This includes images related to movies and TV shows such as posters, backdrops, and stills.
What is ELT?
ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.
Difference between ETL and ELT?
ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
