Query syntax

Eztv-query tries to give you a human friendly free text query syntax.

Etv-query will try to figure out what specific season and episode you are looking for by matching any episode syntax in your query string. In addition, having latest anywhere in your query will automatically default to the latest aired episode.

The rest of the query string is passed on to find the series in question.

Examples:

eztv-query big: Lists all possible matching shows and queries user to select one. Then queries user to select an episode. Returns the selected episode.

eztv-query downton abbey: Lists all seasons and episodes and queries the user to select one. Returns the selected episode.

eztv-query game of thrones season 5: Lists all episodes in season 5 and queries the user to select one. Returns the selected episode.

eztv-query west wing 5x10: Returns season 5 episode 10.

eztv-query latest big bang theory: Returns the latest episode (highest season and episode number).
