TV Time to Trakt - Import Script
A Python script to import TV Time tracked episode data into Trakt.TV - using data export provided by TV Time through a GDPR request.
Issues
They'll be a few! This was quickly put together within a few hours or so for personal usage. If you come across anything then let me know in the 'Issue' section, and I'll provide support where possible.
Notes
- The script is using limited data provided from a GDPR request - so the accuracy isn't 100%. But you will be prompted to manually pick the Trakt show, when it can't be determined automatically.
- A delay of 5 seconds is added between each episode to ensure fair use of Trakt's API server. You should adjust this for your own import, but make sure it's at least 1 second to remain within the rate limit.
- Episodes which have been processed will be saved to a TinyDB file
localStorage.json
- when you restart the script, the program will skip those episodes which have been marked 'imported'.
Setup
Get your Data
TV Time's API is not open. In order to get access to your personal data, you will have to request it from TV Time's support via a GDPR request - or maybe just ask for it, whatever works, it's your data.
- Copy the template provided by www.datarequests.org into an email
- Send it to support@tvtime.com
- Wait a few working days for their team to process your request
- Extract the data somewhere safe on your local system
Register API Access at Trakt
- Go to "Settings" under your profile
- Select "Your API Applications"
- Select "New Application"
- Provide a name into "Name" e.g John Smith Import from TV Time
- Paste "urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob" into "Redirect uri:"
- Click "Save App"
- Make note of your details to be used later.
Setup Script
Install Required Libraries
Install the following frameworks via Pip:
pip install trakt
pip install tinydb
Setup Configuration
Create a new file named config.json
in the same directory of TimeToTrakt.py
, using the below JSON contents (replace the values with your own).
{
"CLIENT_ID": "YOUR_CLIENT_ID",
"CLIENT_SECRET": "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET",
"GDPR_WORKSPACE_PATH": "DIRECTORY_OF_YOUR_GDPR_REQUEST_DATA",
"TRAKT_USERNAME": "YOUR_TRAKT_USERNAME"
}
Once the config is in place, execute the program using python TimeToTrakt.py
. The process isn't 100% automated - you will need to pop back, especially with large imports, to check if the script requires a manual user input.
