Golang application to look up movie or TV show information using the OMDB API.

Installation

Download the executable in the Releases tab.

This tool requires an OMDB API key. You can set it in 2 ways:

Configuration file

A config.json file present in the same directory as the executable, with the following structure:

{
    "apiKey": "<your-OMDB-API-key>"
}

Environment variable

Configure your OMDB API key as an environment variable.

echo 'export OMDB_KEY="<apiKey>"' >> <terminalFile>

Regarding the <terminalFile>, it depends on your terminal. If you're using bash, change it for ~/.bashrc, as for zsh, you can change for ~/.zshenv.
