Get movie genres in list
posted by lamspamSTAFFMOD on novembris 12, 2013 at 4:25 PM
Let's say a user has 250 movies in a list and they would like to temporarily view them organized by genre, or perform a basic search by genre within a list. The genre property does not exist in /3/list/{id}. The ability to perform a search within a specific or multiple lists is not supported by /3/search/movie. I would therefore have to either 1) store the genre information locally (against ToS), or 2) make 250 /3/movie/{id} API requests.
Is there a better way to do this? In this case, is it ok to store genre information locally? Is it just currently impossible to achieve this task?

Store the information locally and build out any query you like 😉
Oh wait…
In a single query yes, but feel free to cache the data locally.
Cheers.
