Fun with TVMaze & Octo/Flat & Deno

A very simple data fetching and processing example to harvest a daily (global) TV/Stream schedule from TVMaze.

Why

Exercise :) But I'm actually using the processed file by fetching tvmaze-schedule-processed.json locally. And flat basically can grab anything ...

How

• Set up a flat action on GitHub via Flat.yml
• I used a daily cron tab
• In the process.ts I simply go thru the ~10Mb json file distilling it down to the bare essentials
• An other example in process.ts is a Genre->ItemId catalog processing

Used

• Octo Flat
• Deno
• Json2Ts
