Problem:
- Gray screens on movie details and downloads
- No error messages shown to debug issues
- API response structure not fully validated
Solution:
1. Enhanced Movie.fromJson() parsing:
- Added detailed logging for each parsing step
- Safe genre parsing: handles [{id: 18, name: Drama}]
- Safe date parsing with null checks
- Safe runtime parsing for both movies and TV shows
- Better media type detection (movie vs tv)
- Comprehensive error logging with stack traces
2. Added detailed API logging:
- getMovieById(): Log request URL, response status, body preview
- getTvShowById(): Log request URL, response status, body preview
- Log API response structure (keys, types, unwrapped data)
- Makes debugging much easier
3. Based on backend API structure:
Backend returns: {"success": true, "data": {...}}
Movie fields from TMDB:
- id (number)
- title or name (string)
- genres: [{"id": int, "name": string}]
- release_date or first_air_date (string)
- vote_average (number)
- runtime or episode_run_time (number/array)
- number_of_seasons, number_of_episodes (int, optional)
Logging examples:
- 'Parsing Movie from JSON: [id, title, genres, ...]'
- 'Parsed genres: [Drama, Thriller, Mystery]'
- 'Successfully parsed movie: Fight Club'
- 'Response status: 200'
- 'Movie data keys: [id, title, overview, ...]'
Changes:
- lib/data/models/movie.dart: Complete rewrite with safe parsing
- lib/data/api/neomovies_api_client.dart: Add detailed logging
Result:
✅ Safer JSON parsing with null checks
✅ Detailed error logging for debugging
✅ Handles all edge cases from API
✅ Easy to debug gray screen issues via logs
Next steps:
Test the app and check Flutter debug console for:
- API request URLs
- Response bodies
- Parsing errors (if any)
- Successful movie loading messages
