I will code up (almost) anything for you in Python for $0

Paranoid Android said:

Got into python and I'm obsessed with it. But I'm not finding any real world problems to solve or automate. And having been around BHW for so many years there is only a set of problems that I'm actually interested in solving. I am deeply sorry for the hungry kids but NO I don't want to plot global hunger stats. I would like to code up stuff that makes getting rich easier.

So if you have anything that you'd like coded up in python, do post your requirement here.

Catch: the code would be opensourced and published on github, and probably on a thread under Making Money section too. So please do not ask me to make stuff that you'd like to keep proprietary.

So please challenge me. Please list out your requirements and I'll reply once I take it up. I can take only 1 project at a time.


I'd like to see what I'm worth to the IM community with my new found skill.
And please don't ask me to make a scraper. HTML traumatises me. If you need something pulled from an api I can definitely do that for you.


All discussions and requirements to be posted on this thread, there will be no private conversations. And if it is something that I would prefer not to work on, which I might if the work isn't challenging enough (or too challenging ), please accept my apologies.

import json import sys import requests def search(title): url = "http://archive.org/advancedsearch.php" params = {"q": f"title:({title})", "output": "json", "fields": "identifier,title", "rows": 50, "page": 1,} resp = requests.get(url, params=params) return resp.json() if __name__ == "__main__": title = sys.argv[1] data = search(title) docs = data["response"]["docs"] print(f"Found {len(docs)} items, showing first 10") print("identifier\ttitle") for row in docs[:10]: print(row["identifier"], row["title"], sep="\t")

and

"""Find a video at the Internet Archive by a partial title match and display it.""" import sys import webbrowser import requests def search(title): """Return a list of 3-item tuples (identifier, title, description) about videos whose titles partially match :title.""" search_url = "https://archive.org/advancedsearch.php" params = { "q": "title:({}) AND mediatype:(movies)".format(title), "fl": "identifier,title,description", "output": "json", "rows": 10, "page": 1, } resp = requests.get(search_url, params=params) data = resp.json() docs = [(doc["identifier"], doc["title"], doc["description"]) for doc in data["response"]["docs"]] return docs def choose(docs): """Print line number, title and truncated description for each tuple in :docs. Get the user to pick a line number. If it's valid, return the first item in the chosen tuple (the "identifier"). Otherwise, return None.""" last = len(docs) - 1 for num, doc in enumerate(docs): print(f"{num}: ({doc[1]}) {doc[2][:30]}...") index = input(f"Which would you like to see (0 to {last})? ") try: return docs[int(index)][0] except: return None def display(identifier): """Display the Archive video with :identifier in the browser""" details_url = "https://archive.org/details/{}".format(identifier) print("Loading", details_url) webbrowser.open(details_url) def main(title): """Find any movies that match :title. Get the user's choice and display it in the browser.""" identifiers = search(title) if identifiers: identifier = choose(identifiers) if identifier: display(identifier) else: print("Nothing selected") else: print("Nothing found for", title) if __name__ == "__main__": main(sys.argv[1])

I don't know what you were trying to achieve, so I cant tell if this might be a blueprint to the solution. The credit goes to Bill Lubanovic. Code is blatantly ripped from 'Introducing Python' by Bill Lubanovic
