Here's my conceptual class diagram
I'm working on getting the movie/actors data that we'll need for the application, and found that the IMDb webapi has very limited search features. They have a lot of data available for download, though, so I made a recording that shows the procedure I used for downloading the text files from IMDb and importing the data into SQL Server:
2754 2020 031 IMDb download, import https://mediaspace.minnstate.edu/media/2754+2020+031+IMDb+download%2C+import.mp4/1_rnipfb6u
Hopefully, by tomorrow I'll have a cleaned up version of the database that you can work with in getting started on the project.
I'm putting the finishing touches on the IMDb database that I imported. The movie genre information wasn't normalized, and it's taking a long time to create the m:n table between movies and genres. For a preview, here's the current structure:
The two most important tables are:
I'll post the database files in D2L tomorrow morning so you can download them to your machine. The sample data includes roughly:
I'll also post the Model classes that EF generated from the database. They should give you a head start.
After the team has completed the consolidated class worksheet/user stories document, each team member should individually create a conceptual class diagram using Visual Paradigm. Post a screenshot of your class diagram here.
