Query String

Key Steps

• Start with an empty HTML page • Define style or you can put it in a css file • Develop start up page • Define the template of the response page • Compose the JSONP call • Implement callback routine and using jQuery template

– Microsoft has contributed jQuery template jquery.tmpl.js to jQuery project and it will be part jQuery in next release.

• Implement movie play using Netflix API – You need to apply a Netflix Developer API account and get the

key. – More information http://developer.netflix.com/

Style

<head> <title>Search Movies</title> <style type="text/css"> #movieTemplateContainer div { width:400px; padding: 10px; margin: 10px; border: black solid 1px; } </style> </head>

Start Up Page and Template Result Page

<body> <label>Search Movies:</label> <input id="movieName" size="50" /> <button id="btnLookup">Lookup</button> <div id="movieTemplateContainer"></div> <script id="movieTemplate" type="text/html"> <div> <img src="${BoxArt.LargeUrl}" /> <strong>${Name}</strong> </br> <button id="playButton" onclick="play(movieID)"

movieID=${NetflixApiId}>Play Now</button> <p> ${Synopsis} </p> </div> </script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.microsoft.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="Scripts/jquery.tmpl.js"></script>

Make JSONP Call <script type="text/javascript"> $("#btnLookup").click(function () { // Build OData query var movieName = $("#movieName").val(); var query = "http://odata.netflix.com/Catalog" // netflix base url + "/Titles" // top-level resource + "?$filter=substringof('" + escape(movieName) + "',Name)" //filter by movie name + "&$callback=callback" // jsonp request + "&$format=json"; // json request // Make JSONP call to Netflix $.ajax({ dataType: "jsonp", url: query, jsonpCallback: "callback", success: callback }); });

Callback and Template

<div id="movieTemplateContainer"></div> <script id="movieTemplate" type="text/html"> <div> <img src="${BoxArt.LargeUrl}" /> <strong>${Name}</strong> </br> <button id="playButton" onclick="play(movieID)" movieID=${NetflixApiId}>Play Now</button> <p> ${Synopsis} </p> </div> </script>

function callback(result) {

// unwrap result var movies = result.d.results; $("#movieTemplateContainer")

.empty(); $("#movieTemplate").render(movies).appendTo("#movieTemplateContainer"); }

Netflix Movie Play function play(movieId) { var id = movieId.substring(45); javascript: nflx.openPlayer('http://api.netflix.com/catalog/movie/'+id, 0, 0, ‘YOUR NETFLIX DEVELOPER ACCOUNT KEY'); } </script> <script src="http://jsapi.netflix.com/us/api/js/api.js"></script>
