JSON description of the BBC broadcasting services. It includes TV and radios. It tends to be done in a way that would be useable and consistent for any broadcasting company.
This is a work in progress prototype. With a secret wish for a global widespread.
Because actually there is no consistent public API to retrieve either existing channels and/or relevant data (like starting/ending broadcasting hours).
Because we need something simple to use, to update and to deploy.
Because it is a common need for every project.
It MUST work for any backend projects.
It MUST work for any frontend projects.
It MUST NOT require more than a single line of code to include the content.
It MUST be let you the opportunity to upgrade safely to a newer version.
Notice: none of these methods is yet working.
By either using one of this known working methods:
npm install --save https://github.com/oncletom/bbc-services.git
bower install --save oncletom/bbc-services
git submodule add https://github.com/oncletom/bbc-services.git <path of your vendor data>
Notice: none of these methods is yet working.
var services = require('bbc-services');
console.dir(services.bbc_one);
Easy way to expose data for your local projects. Better than a Lorem Ipsum, real data!
npm start
Then hit a result:
curl -XGET http://localhost:9000/services/bbc_one.json
