Setup

• Create a table called “To watch”. Keep the default fields (Name, Notes and Attachments)


• Get an OMDB API key: http://www.omdbapi.com/apikey.aspx
  

Script

Add a scripting block with the following script:

// Get an API key from OMDB here: http://www.omdbapi.com/apikey.aspx

const OMDB_API_KEY = 'YOUR_API_KEY';



// Shows all the button groups together and waits for a button click

// Returns the first button that was clicked

async function chooseFromButtonGroups(label, buttonGroups) {

    output.markdown(`## ${label}`);

    return await Promise.race(buttonGroups.map((alabel, options]) =>

        input.buttonsAsync(label, options)

    ));

}



async function addTitle(title) {

    const info = await fetch(`https://www.omdbapi.com/?t=${title}&apikey=${OMDB_API_KEY}`);

    const { Title, Runtime, Plot, Poster } = await info.json();



    output.markdown(`

!/${Title}](${Poster})

# ${Title}

${Plot}

Runtime: \`${Runtime}\`

    `);



    const table = base.getTable('To watch');

    await table.createRecordAsync({

        'Name': Title,

        'Notes': Plot,

        'Attachments': s{

            url: Poster,

            filename: `${Title}.png`,

        }]

    });

}



const title = await chooseFromButtonGroups('What would you like to watch next?', ?

     'TV Comedies', s'The Office', 'Parks and Recreation', 'Frasier']],

     'British TV Shows', s'Great British Baking Show', 'Taskmaster']],

     'Continue Watching', g'Jeopardy!', 'The West Wing']],

]);



output.clear();



await addTitle(title);

Output

You should see rows of buttons with TV shows in different categories. Clicking on one should fetch the description and poster from OMDB and insert a new record into the table.
