Auto Pagination

This client supports auto-pagination for the paginated endpoints.

If you'd like to use auto-pagination, you can call the ExecuteWithAutoPagination function instead of the Execute function.

An example call without auto pagination:

searchResult, _, err := client.ShowsAPI.SearchShowsByFilters(context.Background()).
	Genres([]string{"comedy"}).
	OrderBy("popularity_1year").
	Country("us").
	Catalogs([]string{"netflix"}).Execute()

An example call with auto pagination that fetches at most 3 pages:

shows, err := client.ShowsAPI.SearchShowsByFilters(context.Background()).
	Genres([]string{"comedy"}).
	OrderBy("popularity_1year").
	Country("us").
	Catalogs([]string{"netflix"}).ExecuteWithAutoPagination(3)

Then you can iterate over the results in the following way:

for shows.Next() {
	show := shows.Get()
	// Do something with the show
}
// Check if there was an error during pagination
if shows.Err() != nil {
	log.Fatal(shows.Err())
}

Terms & Conditions and Attribution

Notably, the API requires an attribution to itself, if the data acquired through is made public. You can read further about the attribution requirement on the Terms & Conditions page.
