Using the Application

Playlist data import

The import-current project builds a Docker container that runs an import job. It makes calls to the whatplayed-application, so that needs to be running in order for the import job to run successfully

Chart data import

To import a chart, the url and date of the chart has to be provided to the endpoint

    POST    /charts
    {
        "chartDate":"2014-06-11",
        "chartUrl":"http://www.thecurrent.org/feature/2014/06/11/chart-show"
    }
