Streaming Availability API TypeScript Client

npm tsdoc

This client can be used in both JavaScript and TypeScript projects; and both in browser and Node environment.

Since using this client in browser would expose your API key to the public, it is more secure to use it in server-side applications. Using it in browser is only recommended for personal projects and development purposes.

This script creates a global variable at window.streamingAvailability where you can access to the module.

Usage

Node

import * as streamingAvailability from "streaming-availability";

const RAPID_API_KEY = "<YOUR_RAPID_API_KEY>";

const client = new streamingAvailability.Client(new streamingAvailability.Configuration({

}));

);

console.log(show.title);
console.log(show.overview);
show.streamingOptions["us"].forEach((streamingOption) => {

Via Script Tag
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
	<meta charset="UTF-8">
	<title>The Godfather</title>
</head>
<body style="white-space: pre-line">
	<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/movieofthenight/ts-streaming-availability@v4.4.0/bundle.min.js"></script>
	<script type="module">
		const RAPID_API_KEY = "<YOUR_RAPID_API_KEY>";

		const client = new streamingAvailability.Client(new streamingAvailability.Configuration({
			apiKey: RAPID_API_KEY
		}));

		let show = await client.showsApi.getShow(
			{id: "tt0068646", country: "us"}
		);
		document.body.textContent = show.title + "\r\n";
		document.body.textContent += show.overview + "\r\n";
		show.streamingOptions["us"].forEach((streamingOption) => {
			document.body.textContent +=  streamingOption.link + "\r\n";
		});
	</script>
</body>
</html>

Checkout examples folder for the rest of the examples.

Auto Pagination

This client supports auto-pagination for the paginated endpoints.

If you'd like to use auto-pagination, you can call the corresponding auto pagination versions of the functions.

An example call without auto pagination:

const searchResult = await client.showsApi.searchShowsByFilters(({
	country: "us",
	catalogs: ["netflix"],
	genres: ["action"],
	showType: streamingAvailability.ShowType.Movie,
	orderBy: "popularity_1year",
}));

An example call with auto pagination that fetches at most 3 pages:

const shows = client.showsApi.searchShowsByFiltersWithAutoPagination({
	country: "us",
	catalogs: ["netflix"],
	genres: ["action"],
	showType: streamingAvailability.ShowType.Movie,
	orderBy: "popularity_1year",
}, 3)

Then you can iterate over the results in the following way:

for await (const show of shows) {
	// Do something with the show
}
