Retrieve movies from API #11

Open OwenM4 opened 9 months ago

OwenM4 commented 9 months ago

Points: 2

TODOs:

[x] Figure out how many movies to pull from the API
[x] Pull movies
[x] Get a movie ID number from TMDB

Description: Get a list of popular movies from the TMDB API and store them in a database.

Notes: We need to build a database of popular movies to run the game. This can be done after the API connection and database are completed. Depends on https://github.com/passiondynamics/cast-le-backend/issues/10 and https://github.com/passiondynamics/cast-le-backend/issues/15

We want to create the first run as an initial input so that we do not have to re-run the process every time. So the values should be created and stored for us to physically view them. Probably will need to create some sort of file and pipe it into the database.
