We're going to make a little program that grabs information about films and store it in the database.
- Fork this repo, and git clone your own copy as normal.
- Install the following gems:
gem install httpartygem install json - Run the test using
ruby test/test.rb
You should get a binding.pry prompt with film information for "Jaws". We're going to extend this program to make a database.
- Open the test/test.db database using sqlite 3:
sqlite3 test/test.db
- Create a table called movies that stores some of the data that you are interested in.
- Update the Movie class, so that it has attr_accessors for each column in the movies table.
- Finish the get_film_info method, so that it takes information out of the movie_info hash and stores it in the database.
- Update your test, so that you can make sure that the movie is stored correctly.
- If you get this far, try the following extensions:
- How could we make our program grab more than one movie?
- How could we change our database design to store actors in a seperate table? What other information is not in 3NF?
- Add a method to print all the movies in the database
- Add a method to search for all the movies in the database.
- Amend the program any way you see fit.
- When you're done, send me a pull request
