Add entire show to playlist #15

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open app
2. Click Programs
3. Select a program

From here, one should be able to add the entire program for the day to the 
playlist and begin playing it.  This is very easy to do on the NPR website 
and is my primary use case for NPR.

Yes please! This seems like it'd be one of the most common use cases.

I agree this is probably the single most important thing you can do to improve 
this app! It will boost usage and rating of the app tremendously!

YES!  This is a requirement.  Clicking each story is much too tedious.

I agree absolutely.  It's the only thing that would keep me from using the app 
more.

This is a HUGE drawback of this app. I primarily would want to use the app 
while on roadtrips and the current setup is not driver friendly at all.

I had assumed it wasn't there because NPR said they wouldn't allow it. If it's 
a technical issue, by all means, I'd be willing to post a bounty on it.

It isn't because we won't allow it, but moreso that the technical solution 
isn't as easy.  In the iPhone app, we feed to the podcast feed instead of the 
API for some shows like Wait Wait. Other shows we just add all the segments to 
the playlist.  There should be a technical solution out there.

Thanks for the reply, Kate.

Forgive my ignorance, but could you not do what the user does manually? For 
example today before my exercise routine, I just went through the All Things 
Considered segment list and added each segment for the 29th.

Granted it might be possible I'd lose out on something not posted, or something 
that NPR didn't have rights to post online, but in general, it would cover most 
use cases.

Something like an "Add all segments dated X" feature.

A bounty then?

Original comment by tjack1...@gmail.com on 1 Dec 2010 at 5:16

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
I'm down for a bounty. Where do we put this up?

Original comment by kkin...@gmail.com on 1 Dec 2010 at 5:40

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Kinder, you are technically correct. It is slightly more complicated than that, 
but basically, yes.

For example, All Things Considered, the call should be: 
http://api.npr.org/query?id=2&sort=assigned&date=current&apiKey=[API_KEY] This 
can be repeated for all shows with the id=X where X=show id.

You can double check by going to this page for whatever date is current: 
http://www.npr.org/templates/rundowns/rundown.php?prgId=2&prgDate=12-16-2010

As for bounties, it is not something we've done, but NPR might consider it. 
What would you say to a gift card to the NPR shop? http://shop.npr.org/

This is my #1 issue; and I'm willing to work the code to do it.

Great! Whitey04 I've made you the owner. Please, take a look at how to do a 
code review and keep in mind the different branches. Feel free to send any 
questions you have to the mailing list: npr-android-app@googlecode.com

It's a twenty line function that highlights many other shortcomings.
Proceed with caution.

Huh? What does this mean?

Sorry, Michael, I intended no mystery or offense.  As is, the playlist
isn't a good focal point for user interaction.  Let me leave it at
that; I wanted to entice not discourage.

Any progress on this?  I am eagerly waiting for this feature.  I would be happy 
to test or give feedback on early versions.

Sorry;  I was off for christmas :).  I'm currently looking at issue 49 as a 
prereq for this.

Original comment by white...@gmail.com on 27 Jan 2011 at 4:44

That's awesome. Make sure you are working from the 2.0 trunk paradigm, as the 
1.x will soon be legacy.

Original comment by jpenn...@gmail.com on 27 Jan 2011 at 7:26

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Do you mean the v2.0 UI PDF description (on it ;-) or is there a svn branch 
other than trunk to use...

Original comment by white...@gmail.com on 28 Jan 2011 at 4:03

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
There are indeed two branches. I can't recall the exact paths, but one is 
called just trunk, I believe and the other 1.x something. I'm afraid someone a 
bit more technical will have to verify that :)

The trunk is the 2.0 version and the one you'd want to move towards. I believe 
Michael Frederic still has some fundamental changes to the services that need 
to be checked in. As I'm not coding in the trenches, I don't want to be 
definitive, least I look silly and take you down the wrong path.

Can someone else jump in and clarify If I'm off base?

Original comment by jpenn...@gmail.com on 28 Jan 2011 at 5:11

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Seems about right.  I'm currently looking at the trunk but it hasn't been 
committed to since November.  

I started with Issue 49 (add from story list) since that should flow easily 
even if the playlist back end changes drastically (and will make adding a show 
at least *easier*).
