Specific platform

The specific platform resource is used to specify the specific platforms blackout/deal/right/denied right/rule applies to. If the relationship is empty, the blackout/deal/right/denied right/rule applies to all the platforms of the company.

In Mediagenix On-Demand, a specific platform will look like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<specific-platform>
  <id type="integer">1</id>
  <link rel="self" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platforms/1"/>
  <link rel="platform" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/3"/>
</specific-platform>
{
  "resource_type": "specific_platform",
  "id": 1,
  "self_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platforms/1",
  "platform_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/3"
}

Create a specific platform

As our introduction to REST APIs page suggests, you can create a specific platform issuing a POST request to each blackout/deal/right/denied right/rule URI:

$ cat specific_platform.xml
$ cat specific_platform.json
<specific-platform>
  <link rel="platform" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/3"/>
</specific-platform>
{
  "platform_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/3"
}

For blackouts:

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/xml" -X POST -d @specific_platform.xml "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/blackouts/13/specific_platforms"
$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" -X POST -d @specific_platform.json "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/blackouts/13/specific_platforms"

For deals:

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/xml" -X POST -d @specific_platform.xml "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/deals/13/specific_platforms"
$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" -X POST -d @specific_platform.json "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/deals/13/specific_platforms"

For rights:

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/xml" -X POST -d @specific_platform.xml "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/rights/13/specific_platforms"
$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" -X POST -d @specific_platform.json "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/rights/13/specific_platforms"

For denied rights:

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/xml" -X POST -d @specific_platform.xml "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/denied_rights/13/specific_platforms"
$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" -X POST -d @specific_platform.json "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/denied_rights/13/specific_platforms"

For rules:

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/xml" -X POST -d @specific_platform.xml "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/rules/13/specific_platforms"
$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" -X POST -d @specific_platform.json "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/rules/13/specific_platforms"

As always Mediagenix On-Demand will return the full XML/JSON of the specific platform just created:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<specific-platform>
  <id type="integer">1</id>
  <link rel="self" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platforms/1"/>
  <link rel="platform" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/3"/>
</specific-platform>
{
  "resource_type": "specific_platform",
  "id": 1,
  "self_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platforms/1",
  "platform_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/3"
}

Listing all specific platforms of a blackout

Specific platforms are accessed via the blackout they belong to. Refer to the corresponding resource page, i.e blackout resource page to find out how to access a blackout.

Inside a blackout, one of the related link nodes is the specific_platforms node, identified by the rel attribute.

Example for a blackout:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
<blackout>
  <!-- ... -->
  <link rel="specific_platforms" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/blackouts/13/specific_platforms"/>
  <!-- ... -->
</blackout>
{
  "resource_type": "blackout",
  // ...
  "specific_platforms_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/blackouts/13/specific_platforms",
  // ...
}

If we follow that link we can fetch the list of all specific platforms for that blackout.

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/blackouts/13/specific_platforms
$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Accept: application/json" https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/blackouts/13/specific_platforms

    }
  ]
}

Listing all specific platforms of a deal

Specific platforms are accessed via the deal they belong to. Refer to the corresponding resource page, i.e deal resource page to find out how to access a deal.

Inside a deal, one of the related link nodes is the specific_platforms node, identified by the rel attribute.

Example for a deal:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
<deal>
  <!-- ... -->
  <link rel="specific_platforms" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/deals/13/specific_platforms"/>
  <!-- ... -->
</deal>
{
  "resource_type": "deal",
  // ...
  "specific_platforms_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/deals/13/specific_platforms",
  // ...
}

If we follow that link we can fetch the list of all specific platforms for that deal.

Listing all specific platforms of a right

Specific platforms are accessed via the right they belong to. Refer to the corresponding resource page, i.e right resource page to find out how to access a right.

Inside a right, one of the related link nodes is the specific_platforms node, identified by the rel attribute.

Example for a right:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
<right>
  <!-- ... -->
  <link rel="specific_platforms" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/rights/13/specific_platforms"/>

Listing all specific platforms of a denied right

Specific platforms are accessed via the denied right they belong to. Refer to the corresponding resource page, i.e denied right resource page to find out how to access a denied right.

Inside a denied right, one of the related link nodes is the specific_platforms node, identified by the rel attribute.

Example for a denied right:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
<denied-right>
  <!-- ... -->
  <link rel="specific_platforms" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/denied_rights/13/specific_platforms"/>
  <!-- ... -->
</denied-right>
{
  "resource_type": "denied_right",
  // ...
  "specific_platforms_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/denied_rights/13/specific_platforms",
  // ...
}

If we follow that link we can fetch the list of all specific platforms for that denied right.

      "platform_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/2"
    }
  ]
}

Listing all specific platforms of a rule

Specific platforms are accessed via the rule they belong to. Refer to the corresponding resource page, i.e rule resource page to find out how to access a rule.

Inside a rule, one of the related link nodes is the specific_platforms node, identified by the rel attribute.

Example for a rule:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
<rule>
  <!-- ... -->
  <link rel="specific_platforms" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/rules/13/specific_platforms"/>
  <!-- ... -->
</rule>
{
  "resource_type": "rule",
  // ...
  "specific_platforms_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/rules/13/specific_platforms",
  // ...
}

If we follow that link we can fetch the list of all specific platforms for that rule.

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/rules/13/specific_platforms
$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Accept: application/json" https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/rules/13/specific_platforms
<specific_platforms type="array">
  <specific_platform>
    <id type="integer">10</id>
    <link rel="self" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platforms/10"/>
    <link rel="platform" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/3"/>
  </specific_platform>
  <specific_platform>
    <id type="integer">11</id>
    <link rel="self" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platforms/11"/>
    <link rel="platform" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/2"/>
  </specific_platform>
</specific_platforms>
{
  "entries": [
    {
      "resource_type": "specific_platform",
      "id": 2183092,
      "self_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platforms/10",
      "platform_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/3"
    },
    {
      "resource_type": "specific_platform",
      "id": 2183092,
      "self_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platforms/11",
      "platform_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/2"
    }
  ]
}

Updating a specific platform

You can update specific platforms using a PUT request to the URL of a given specific platform, as the following example illustrates.

$ cat specific_platform.xml
$ cat specific_platform.json
<specific-platform>
  <link rel="platform" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/4"/>
</specific-platform>
{
  "platform_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/4"
}

Now we send the XML/JSON as the body of a PUT request to the specific platform’s URL

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/xml" -X PUT -d @specific_platform.xml "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platforms/10"
$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" -X PUT -d @specific_platform.json "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platforms/10"

The PUT request would return the updated XML/JSON of the specific platform:

<specific-platform>
  <id type="integer">10</id>
  <link rel="self" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platform/10"/>
  <link rel="platform" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/4"/>
</specific-platform>
{
  "resource_type": "specific_platform",
  "id": 2183097,
  "self_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platforms/2183097",
  "platform_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/platforms/4770"
}

Deleting a specific platform

The following example shows how to destroy a particular specific platform. Only a DELETE HTTP request to its URL is required:

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/xml" -X DELETE "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platforms/10"
$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Accept: application/json" -X DELETE "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/specific_platforms/10"

The DELETE request doesn’t return anything, as that specific platform now is gone.

Deleting a specific platforms doesn’t delete the parent (blackout, deal, right or rule) nor the platform.
