Add video series or movie info - Iss14 [WIP] #25

Closed xavierfav closed 4 years ago

xavierfav commented 4 years ago

this PR implements what is described in #14. The branch was created from #15 which should not get much more changes before being merged to master.

Movie or Series title, episode and season numbers are available from the API for a video this way:

{
    ...
    "name": "The.Big.Bang.Theory.S05E19.HDTV.x264-LOL.mp4",
    "series": "The Big Bang Theory",
    "movie": null,
    "episode": 19,
    "season": 5
}

We should re-think how the interface and the search works. We could for instance search on movies and series titles and displays the results in two different carousels. When selecting a serie, another carousel (or maybe two) should allow to select the season and episode. We should probably sketch some scenarios to find the most efficient/fast way to retrieve our videos. Also in terms of implementation, what would be more simple for @worms19.

Yes there would be work to do on providing ways to interact with this new database tables. I am waiting we validate the proposed UI to start working on that.
