Implement BoardGameGeek ID extraction from board game title #12

Closed havanagrawal closed 4 years ago

havanagrawal commented 4 years ago

Problem

Implement the board_game_geek_id function in external_identifier

Prerequisites

[ ] You know basic git, i.e. how to fork this repo, clone this repo, work on a branch and send a PR
[ ] You have basic working knowledge of Python
[ ] You are able to run Python on your machine
[ ] You are familiar with basic web scraping (example: requests, bs4 (BeautifulSoup), etc)

How to Test

Simply run python3 external_identifier.py and it will run doctests. Ensure that the test for board_game_geek_id passes.

Hints

Try searching for some movie on https://boardgamegeek.com. What does the URL look like? You can use that to send a GET request.
Feel free to add more arguments to the function if they help in increasing the confidence of the returned identifier.
