Once the user has searched for the show, they will select the right showing, and this needs to be stored...

Process:

Using the EvtID - Veirfy the show exists, and grab the required data
Store the EvtID - this will be used to find out when it's first showing
Find the Series & Episode Identifiers - Store and Reference the method used for later

Freesat's API gives the following endpoint - https://www.freesat.co.uk/whats/showcase/api/channel/513/episode/26020 - which uses the channel number, evitid to find the details of the show

Need to consider manually adding shows that can't be tracked?

How do we deal with shows that only supply their series number? E.g, Strictly?

OStillman commented 2 years ago

For manual we can send error back to user with option to track on assumption that it will always be on on the intial day they have selected - i.e. It's always on Sunday's

We can then ignore anything that's not on during the evening (in case any midday repeats etc.) and if only series number, can bolt on that check to ensure we are not tracking previous series

But this has to be an option!
