What's the deal with asyncio?

Install

$ pip install aioseinfeld

Depends on having a copy of the script database generated using scripts by Colin Pollick.

You can build your own copy using those scripts, or download a prebuilt copy with the following command:

$ wget https://noswap.com/pub/seinfeld.db

Usage

aioseinfeld uses context managers to wrap the underlying sqlite database connection. Create the Seinfeld object by passing the path to the seinfeld.db database:

from aioseinfeld import Seinfeld

async with Seinfeld(db_path) as seinfeld:
    ...

Get information on individual episodes or seasons:

async with Seinfeld(db_path) as seinfeld:
    season = await seinfeld.season(1)
    episodes = await season.episodes
    episodes[0].title  # "Good News, Bad News"
    episodes[0].writers # ["Jerry Seinfeld"]
    episodes[0].date  # date(1990, 6, 14)

Quotes can be retrieved by unique ID:

async with Seinfeld(db_path) as seinfeld:
    quote = await seinfeld.quote(34665)
    quote.speaker.name  # "George"
    quote.episode.title  # "The Pitch"
    quote.text  # "The show is about nothing."

Quotes can also be found by searching:

async with Seinfeld(db_path) as seinfeld:
    await seinfeld.search(speaker="Jerry", subject="keys")  # [Quote(...), ...]

You can even get random quotes with optional search parameters:

async with Seinfeld(db_path) as seinfeld:
    await seinfeld.random()  # Quote(...)
    await seinfeld.random(subject="parking")  # Quote(...)

If you want more context around a quote, passages help:

async with Seinfeld(db_path) as seinfeld:
    quote = await seinfeld.random()
    passage = await seinfeld.passage(quote, length=5)
    passage.quotes # [Quote(...), ...]
