# TMDB Kotlin
TMDB Kotlin is a **Kotlin Multiplatform** library for fetching movies, TV shows, episodes, and all relevant information.
* Written in Kotlin native with ktor from the ground up.
* Support for Android, iOS, desktop, and web applications.
* High customizable HttpClient configuration
Sample projects:
* [tivi](https://github.com/chrisbanes/tivi)
* [Moviebase](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.moviebase)
* [StreamGuide](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.streamguide)
## Adding to your project
The library is available on Maven Central.
### Gradle
Add the Maven Central repository if it is not already there.
```kotlin
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
```
To use the library in a single-platform project, add a dependency.
```kotlin
dependencies {
implementation("app.moviebase:tmdb-api:1.3.3")
}
```
In Kotlin Multiplatform projects, add the dependency to your commonMain source-set dependencies.
```kotlin
commonMain {
dependencies {
implementation("app.moviebase:tmdb-api:1.3.3")
}
}
```
## Usage
Most of the library follows the possibilities and naming at the [official documentation](https://www.themoviedb.org/documentation/api). The documentation of the API endpoints is on [version 3](https://developers.themoviedb.org/3) and [version 4](https://developers.themoviedb.org/4).
### Configuration
Build up your TMDB instance to access the APIs. You can configure the entire HttpClient of ktor.
```kotlin
val tmdb = Tmdb3 {
tmdbApiKey = "yourApiKey"
userAuthentication {
authenticationToken = "auth token for version 4"
val storage = TmdbAccountStorage() // use own class here
loadSessionId { storage.sessionId }
loadGuestSessionId { storage.guestSessionId }
loadAccessToken { storage.accessToken }
}
expectSuccess = false // if you want to disable exceptions
useCache = true
useTimeout = true
maxRetriesOnException = 3 // retries when network calls throw an exception
// add your own client
httpClient(OkHttp) {
engine {
}
}
httpClient {
// for custom HttpClient configuration
}
}
```
You need to add your own TMDB API key for using the library. The instruction for the creation is in the [TMDB developer guide](https://developers.themoviedb.org).
### Get information
For getting basic information about a movie or other media content.
```kotlin
val tmdb = Tmdb3("apiKey")
val movieDetail = tmdb.movies.getDetails(
movieId = 12,
language = "DE",
appendResponses = listOf(AppendResponse.MOVIE_CREDITS)
)
```
### Search
Search for TV shows by a query.
```kotlin
val tmdb = Tmdb3("apiKey")
val showPageResult = tmdb.search.findShows(
query = "The Expanse",
page = 1,
language = "DE",
region = "US",
includeAdult = false
)
```
### Discover
Discover a movie or TV show by the discover parameter class.
```kotlin
val discover = TmdbDiscover.Movie(
sortBy = TmdbDiscoverMovieSortBy.POPULARITY,
sortOrder = TmdbSortOrder.DESC,
voteAverageGte = 5,
voteCountGte = 200,
releaseDate = TmdbDiscoverTimeRange.BetweenYears(from = 2020, to = 2021)
)
val discoverPageResult = tmdb.discover.discoverMovie(
page = 1,
region = "DE",
language = "de",
discover = discover
)
```
Alternatively, use predefined discover categories like upcoming, networks or on streaming.
```kotlin
val discoverCategory = DiscoverCategory.OnStreaming.Netflix(
mediaType = TmdbMediaType.MOVIE,
watchRegion = "DE"
)
val result = tmdb.discover.discoverByCategory(
page = 1,
region = "DE",
language = "de",
category = discoverCategory
)
```
### Authentication
Build up your authentication URL, which you can open in the web view.
```kotlin
// Returns "https://www.themoviedb.org/authenticate/[request_token]?redirect_to=auth://yourApp"
val url = tmdb.authentication.requestAuthorizationUrl("auth://yourApp")
```
After opening the URL, TMDB version 3 returns the following URL:
```kotlin
yourApp://auth/login?request_token=[request_token]&approved=true
```
### Build image URL
You can build an image URL via the poster file path and size key. More information on the [TMDB images site](https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/getting-started/images).
```kotlin
val url = TmdbImageUrlBuilder.build("nBNZadXqJSdt05SHLqgT0HuC5Gm.jpg", "w154")
```
Or create the URL by an image class with the best matched width/height.
```kotlin
val url = TmdbImageUrlBuilder.build(image = movie.posterImage, width = 200, height = 300)
```
For creating the poster URL by the movie item.
```kotlin
val url = TmdbImageUrlBuilder.buildPoster(item = movie, width = 200)
```
### Build video URL
You can build a video URL by the key value into `TmdbVideo`. TMDb API currently support videos from YouTube and Vimeo
```kotlin
val youtubeTmdbVideo = TmdbVideo(id = "123", key = "qwerasdf", site = TmdbVideoSite.YOUTUBE)
val url = TmdbImageUrlBuilder.build(youtubeTmdbVideo) // It will return `https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwerasdf`
val vimeoTmdbVideo = TmdbVideo(id = "123", key = "qwerasdf", site = TmdbVideoSite.VIMEO)
val url = TmdbImageUrlBuilder.build(vimeoTmdbVideo) // It will return `https://vimeo.com/qwerasdf`
```
