ontv

Reimagining of my old Python-based CLI application for tracking show progress and what to watch next.

Still in the experimental stage. Users beware!

Running ontv in read-only mode

If you for some reason want to run ontv in read-only mode you can do that with the --test switch. I personally use this during development to make sure I don't accidentally save bad data to my local database.

rust $ RUST_LOG=ontv=debug ontv --test


Importing history from trakt.tv

You must run the application at least once, and go into Settings to configure your themoviedb.com API key. Unfortunately I cannot help you with this.

Next you'll need to export your existing history it using this very helpful service by Darek Kay.

After you've unpacked the file, import the history by starting ontv like this:

rust $ RUST_LOG=ontv=debug ontv --import-trakt-watched C:\Downloads\watched_shows.txt --import-missing

The process is incremental, so don't worry if you have to abort it. If any episode already has a watch history it will simply skip over that episode.

This will take a while, so go get a ☕.
