feat: add metascraper-imdb by Kikobeats · Pull Request #876 · microlinkhq/metascraper

Kikobeats · 2026-08-19T07:45:33Z

Summary

Add metascraper-imdb so title pages prefer JSON-LD Movie over IMDb’s social-card Open Graph (title ⭐ rating | genre, 1h 43m | PG-13).
Title comes from name, author from director (not the nested review mdm-11), description from the plot meta tag.

Test plan

pnpm --filter metascraper-imdb test
After publish, add metascraper-imdb to the API vendor rules and replay https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091042/

Made with Cursor

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds the metascraper-imdb package. It defines IMDb URL validation and metadata extraction rules, publishes package documentation and metadata, registers the package, and adds extraction, URL validation, and integration tests.

Changes

IMDb rules bundle

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Package contract and extraction rules `packages/metascraper-imdb/package.json`, `packages/metascraper-imdb/src/index.d.ts`, `packages/metascraper-imdb/src/index.js`, `README.md`, `packages/metascraper-imdb/README.md`	The package manifest, TypeScript declaration, documentation, and package listing are added. The rules validate `imdb.com` URLs and extract author, description, publisher, and title values from IMDb metadata.
Extraction and integration coverage `packages/metascraper-imdb/test/fixtures/title.html`, `packages/metascraper-imdb/test/index.js`, `packages/metascraper-imdb/test/snapshots/index.js.md`, `packages/metascraper-imdb/test/test.js`, `packages/metascraper/test/integration/postplanner/index.js`	AVA tests verify IMDb metadata extraction, snapshot output, unwanted content removal, accepted or rejected URL patterns, and separate PostPlanner logo handling.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7f518

The package adds IMDb metadata extraction, with two bounded release-quality issues remaining: the package homepage points to a 404 URL, and the README install example may cause users to copy the shell prompt as part of the command. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up to correct these documentation issues.

Correct the package homepage in a coordinated manifest sweep.

This URL uses the known GitHub /packages/<package-name> pattern that returns 404. Do not correct only this package. Update affected package manifests together so their homepage fields remain consistent.

Based on learnings: the current homepage convention returns 404 and requires a repository-wide manifest sweep.
