It's not showing anything because I thought it's not suppose to display the currently playing show.
Fixed by retrieving the currently playing show along with next shows, and display them.
todayInfoAction is no longer needed since liveInfoAction does the same thing.
- Converting times to UTC timezone in ApiController before sending them to model functions
- Added utility functions in DateHelper.php
- GetShowsByDayOfWeek has been removed due to bugs caused by using local timezone
based variable like $day, which represents day of the week in local time, in db query,
which has times saved in UTC timezone. Converting stuff like day of the week from local
to UTC is messy. GetNextShows(...) can do the job so WeekInfoAction now uses it instead
Not only were frontend widgets showing UTC time,
the SQL query was also comparing UTC timestamp with local timestamps,
causing widgets to display shows in the wrong day, etc.
Another problem was that "On air today" widget was simply calling
GetNextShows which returns shows within next 48 hours.
Fixed by:
1. Under models/Show.php:
In the GetCurrentShow/GetNextShows/GetShowsByDayOfWeek functions,
added code to convert UTC timestamp to local timestamp or vice versa,
depending on which one is more suitable, in SQL queries, thus
removing inconsistency in timezones. Also, before returning query result,
added code to convert result to local timezone.
In GetNextShows, added an optional parameter endTime to limit the interval
of shows to get. This is useful for the "On air today" widget.
2. Under models/DateHelper.php:
Added a few timezone functions to help converting timezones easier in Show.php.
3. Under controller/ApiController.php:
Added todayInfoAction which is to be used by "On Air Today" widget.
