some basic help

Hi, I just registered (thanks for the quick response to my registration request) and I am trying to make use of the database. I have a fair bit of experience with programming but I have no idea how the API for this site works. I'm not even sure what language the API is written in and the documentation hasn't been any help. I'm guessing I don't write the job on my own computer but somehow make use of apiary.io but I'm not sure. It might help if the documentation had a simple walk through example. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Greg

Hi ggdhines,
First of all, Apiary is just a tool to help you out. It is neither a service offered by us or something you would use to make "real world" requests.
Secondly, our API is a JSON web service. So depending on what language you prefer to write code in, you would need to look at the easiest/best way to do it. We have a number of user contributed libraries that can help make this even easier.
But, at the end of the day a simple request to retrieve the movie with the id of 550 looks like this (replace ### with your API key):
Cheers.

Hi
I'm also new here and I am getting familiar with the API. I want to know how to use the poster path that is returned in the JSON object. It starts with a "/" and then some characters and then ends with the file type. I do not know how to use that to get access to the full URL of the image. I would appreciate some guidance. Thanks.
P.S: If this is not the correct place to post such a question then I am sorry.

You can read about how to get the required path information for images on the configuration method.
Cheers.

Hi eoin_a,
You can get the ID by doing a search: http://docs.themoviedb.apiary.io/#search
Search supports the searching by title like you were asking about.
Cheers.
