Douban Scraper & Douban API — Movies, TV, Books, Ratings (豆瓣电影 / 图书)

The simplest Douban API alternative. Douban closed its official public API years ago. This Douban scraper gives you clean JSON for any public Douban movie, TV show or book: title, original title, year, Douban rating (豆瓣评分) & vote count, genres, directors, cast, authors, countries, tags, summary, cover and URL.

🔎 Search by keyword (Chinese or English: 三体, Interstellar) or paste subject URLs / IDs
🔓 No login, no cookies, no account needed
🛡️ Public subject data only — no user profiles, no personal data
📦 Export JSON, CSV, Excel, or call via API / Python / Node.js
💲 Pay per result: $3 per 1,000 subjects

FAQ

Is there an official Douban API? Not publicly any more — the official API was shut down for new developers. This actor is a maintained alternative for public data. Do I need a Douban account or cookies? No. Does it scrape reviews or user data? No. Only public subject (item) pages, no personal information. Is it legal? It only reads publicly visible pages at a polite rate. You are responsible for how you use the data; check Douban's terms for your use case. How fast is it? About one subject every ~2 s by default (rate-limited on purpose to be reliable). Something broke? Open an issue on the Issues tab — fixes are usually same-week.
