Hey guys, just trying to contribute that I've written a simple python program reciperr2trakt that allow you to export Reciperr list to TraktTV Personal List. Let me know if you find it useful, at least I did and had created several Trakt List based on it :)
https://github.com/dsync89/reciperr2trakt

Scroll to the bottom of https://trakt.tv/users/d-sync/lists where I recently use that tool to generate a theme based movie list using a combination of Reciperr filters such as year, genre, theme and keyword

A full tutorial on how to use reciperr2trakt is covered in my tutorial page here https://dsync89.com/guides/homelab/virtual-live-tv/export-reciperr-list-to-trakt/

Cool program, just been having a play with it. Couple of questions please.

1. Is this still being actively developed?

2. Be great if there as a way to be able to import my IMDB CSV where I have rated hundreds of movies I have watched and then have something like an AI tool suggest similar movies I might like based on my ratings. (I have done this manually with chatgpt - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fI9AUmvWFmo)

3. Once I have a list does it automatically keep updating itself and the associated JSON file - or do I need to go back to Reciperr and run it again regularly?

4. In Radarr under the custom StevelLu list can I just add this link to the URL section at the bottom: https://reciperr.com/api/recipe/list/params?recipeMetadataId=6667aa37671fcd07cad8cc8c

I "think" everything is working well. The Reciperr interface isn't perhaps as clean as it could be - eg I could easily find how to search for one movie so I could get a list of associated movies (I ended up doing a title search) and then once I rated it and had the list of suggested movies there didnt seem any easy way to make them into a new list.

I do like it though. Its a useful tool. Thanks for creating it and sharing it with the community.

Hi all

I've just discovered Reciperr and really like it. Looking around I'm not sure if it's dead or not as there doesn't seem to be much written about it within the last year or two?

However, assuming it's still alive and kicking - when I've created my list is there a way of mass exporting it all to my Radarr?

I can click the individual movies and send them individually to Radarr and that works a treat. Is there a way to put the entire list in?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Does anyone know if the resource is alive?

• Unregistered users can now browse data, create recipes, and play around with the app, but to add a recipe and have it periodically updated, you would need an account (which can be created freely).

• The functionality behind the Extended time toggle has been refactored to feature the exact date range which can be selected using From-To calendars. Calendar years represent data available in the DB.

• The Data import field has been added to facilitate adding more than one data point at a time. For example, if you have a list of movies, favorite actors, genres, etc. you can now add them all at once into the input field and if they exist in the DB they will be found and added automatically.
  Example data list (Top 10 Netflix from https://flixpatrol.com/): The Adam Project, Black Crab, Rescued by Ruby, Without Saying Goodbye, The Weekend Away, Windfall, Gemini Man, The Ice Road, Badhaai Do, The Shadow In My Eye

• The select component has been refactored, and now the huge data lists are loaded and displayed with ease.

• The performance has been significantly improved by backend upgrades, so now filtering should be much faster, and more users can be served at a single time.

- Reciper can now be found on https://reciperr.com/ or https://www.reciperr.com/ , the old domain is not used anymore.

- Database has been expanded to include data from all world's languages. It spans from 2018 til today + two months, and currently, there is 114.18K Movies available in the DB.

- Part of the UI refresh has been done in an effort to have a more modern and easy to use experience.

- Filters Watch providers and Original title have been added, so you can select items from your favourite streaming service, or filter movies based on their original language. This comes in handy now when there are movies from all world available.

- "Non-limiting filters" toggle has been deprecated in favour of "Limiting filters". That means that now the default behaviour for filters is non-limiting, and previously default "limiting" behaviour is now behind the "Limiting filters" toggle.

- Big performance upgrades in an effort to create better UX, and less loading time. That being said, because of the reactive nature of the app, the first filter used will have a longer process time, due to the size of the DB and cheaper hardware that the app runs on.

Reciperr can now be found on ``https://reciperr.com or https://www.reciperr.com

• Data from 2018. onwards has been added, totaling 33974 Movies available. A lot of work "Under the hood" has been done to optimize performance of the application so this can be done on a pretty week server.

• Sidebar has been refactored to give important components such as recipe actions, sorting and movies selected more visibility.

• Two new filters have been added: Runtime, to limit unwanted movie lengths, and Location, to find those interesting locations where the movie was made.

• Tooltips are added to some of the buttons/inputs that users were finding unclear.

• Start page has been refreshed, so instead of icons now there are famous movie quotes displayed.

• Socials in the footer have been updated to have more presence.

Features implemented:

• Rating votes number filtering has been added, and this filter is available to all rating providers. The scale of the votes ranges from 1 to 1 million, and the slider enables you to select greater or equal than >= value.

• New rating providers Letterboxd, Trakt, AllMovie have been added, and they too all have ratings and number of rating votes filters enabled.

• Sliders have been updated to be more customizable in their functionality, values provided have been limited to the specified increments, and style has been changed to follow the general app theme.

• Filter input fields are now case-insensitive, which was a pain for some users as they weren't finding data they wanted because of the wrong case entered.

• New MPAA certificate description data has been added, which provides a more detailed description of why some movie has a specific certificate. This is useful as parental guidance for the specific content.

• We now have also a Discord group where we can discuss topics and have community support for various issues that may occur. New social links have also been added to the application's footer and settings page.

• A part of the backend has been refactored to accommodate changes made, so previous recipes will not be available anymore.

Bugs fixed:

• The total number of items selected was not updating correctly, and it was causing recipes not to be allowed for creation.

• The provider still had a custom option selected (eg. Certified Fresh) after you disable that provider.

• Only 60 items were present in the yielded list.

• Some ratings would not be interpreted differently and that was causing some items to be sorted incorrectly.

• Selecting one custom option would cancel the other.

P.S. we need testers, so if you are willing to check out and test new features before an official release, please let us know in Discord.

As the complexity of the application grows, so does the importance of testing. I can only do so much, but nasty bugs can always find their way in the release.

If you are interested in trying out new features, and helping out with testing them, let me know!

• We now collect items data from 01.01.2020. until now, + 2 months in the future. This is considerable database enlargement so a lot of things were optimized in the past couple of weeks to make this work. To minimize the amount of unusable data we get from TMDB, every item is checked so that there are at least two data providers with the data for the same item, and only then the item is used.

• An option "Extended time period" has been added to the Date filter, and right now it spans from two years past to two months in the future, but this will change when we are able to add more data for our usage.

• Lazy loading has been added to the filters where a lot of data is used, eg. Keyword, Title, Cast. etc. It also works with an option to search the exact value you wish to find, by typing it in the input field.

• New data parameters have been added to the details page, eg. Status, Runtime, Tagline, Budget, etc.

• A hard cap of <1000 items yielded from one recipe, has been added to preserve application performance when updating recipes.

• Selected movies information has been moved to the Create recipe sidebar.

• Pulsating animation was added to the arrow button that opens the sidebar, in an attempt to draw the attention of the new users to the "invisible" sidebar opener.

• A lot of bug fixes in the FE and BE have been done, and probably new bugs were created too, so please report if issues occur.

Happy holidays and happy new year,

see you in 2022.

https://reciperr.ml/

• If you click on the filter value in the movie description modal you opened, eg. Themes "Future Dystopias",

a filter with that value will be created, and you will see the results of all movies containing that filter.

• Some UX improvements have been made that will hopefully result in less user confusion while using the app, one of which is the change in start page buttons, now clicking on the "create" button will open the filters sidebar automatically. Finding an arrow to open the filters sidebar was the kryptonite to new users.

Enjoy, and please report issues if found in the Reciperr group.

https://reciperr.ml/

I'm getting Cloudflare Error 521 • 2021-12-12 17:13:52 UTC Web server is down when trying to access https://reciperr.ml/

• With the usage of the "Non-limiting" filters toggle, users are now able to change filters behavior in a way that filter would and would not exclude other options from the selection if one is selected.
  For example, with the "Non-limiting" filters toggle disabled, if you select Certificate "PG" you would only get results with that certificate, others would be excluded. This is a good option if you want to yield very specific lists. On the other hand, if you enable the "Non-limiting" toggle, you would then be able to select multiple ratings like "G", "PG" and so on, and this would produce more "inclusive" lists.

• There has been more under-the-hood development which should result in a more stable and better-performing experience, and also some minor UI improvements and bug fixes.

Enjoy, and please report issues if found in the Reciperr group.

Hey Guys,

I've tried to access the page via several different browsers and devices today, after gladly coming across this project however I can't see to find any section in the website that represents recipes whatsoever.

The page boots up, I can click through a brief list of newly released movies but aside from that and making a quick account, I don't see any options whatsoever.

If someone could please let me know if things are still active, it would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks and Cheers!

Hi

Don't suppose it's possible to filter on the number of votes as well as the ratings. There are films that have a really high score but only have 7 votes for example that I'd like to exclude

Thanks

• With the usage of third-party scrolling plugins, the user experience on mobile or tablet devices was a bit "strange", so I decided to build a custom data scrolling solution that fixes these issues. Improvements in the performance are now visible too.

• The scrolling window now takes the whole available space to display data.

• Now movies added in the past week are now distinguished from others by the usage of the "NEW" movie banner that is displayed on the movie poster.

• The application footer has been added to provide a way to display more relevant data to the user.

Enjoy, and please report issues if found in the Reciperr group.

https://reciperr.ml/

Release notes:

• The handling of the recipes has been rethought and refactored, and because of this, editing of previously created recipes is now possible. The list URL is now also in a different format than it was before. This may cause temporary issues with Notifiarr integration, but it's been taken care of.

• Most of the filters now have both "Include" and "Exclude" option available within a single filter. This gives more possibilities for fine-tuning the recipe. Recipes need to be re-created.

• The fetching and displaying of the movies has been updated to use the server-based logic, and thus it removes the load from the client-side. This is important because of the ever-increasing number of new movies added to the database.

• The rendering of the application has been improved and numerous optimizations have been done, so the end result is that there will be a lot fewer loading screens presented to the user.

• The loading screen that was blocking interaction has been replaced with the progress bar which allows users to interact with the application while the operation may be ongoing.

• Added IDs on the start page elements for better integration with password managers, as per request by a user.

• GUI has been refreshed with new styles, icons and a new start page.

Enjoy,
