Sample project to display/play a selection of Movies in TVML.
This project provides a strong base for a video streaming application that allows for viewing movies by category and provides the structure that can be used for searching. Loading the application will display a "Home" screen that loads movies from a JSON file by category and displays them. Selecting a move will launch a details page providing more information, and eventually launch to a video. The "Search" screen allows for searching for a movie and selecting a result to launch the same details page.
This application makes the assumption that the test_data folder will be run on localhost on port 9001. If this is not the port you would like, or you desire to run it
on another device, then you must edit the URLs listed within DataLoader.js as necessary. It is my suggestion that they be hosted with a python simple http server:
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 9001
To actually launch the application, create a new TVML application in Xcode. Quickly update the AppDelegate.swift file to include:
static let tvBaseURL = "http://localhost:9001/"
static let tvBootURL = "\(AppDelegate.tvBaseURL)/application.js"
On run, your application should run as expected. If you receive a warning you may need to enable the app to connect to your compuer. Open Info.plist in your Xcode project and add App Transport Security Settings with a key of Allow Arbitrary Loads = Yes. Note that this should NOT be used in production code.
