Program

public final class Program implements Comparable

A convenience class to access TvContractCompat.Programs entries in the system content provider.

This class makes it easy to insert or retrieve a program from the system content provider, which is defined in TvContractCompat.

Usage example when inserting a program: 

Program program = new Program.Builder()
        .setChannelId(channel.getId())
        .setTitle("Program Title")
        .setDescription("Program Description")
        .setPosterArtUri(Uri.parse("http://example.com/poster_art.png"))
        // Set more attributes...
        .build();
Uri programUri = getContentResolver().insert(Programs.CONTENT_URI, program.toContentValues());

Usage example when retrieving a program: 

Program program;
try (Cursor cursor = resolver.query(programUri, null, null, null, null)) {
    if (cursor != null && cursor.getCount() != 0) {
        cursor.moveToNext();
        program = Program.fromCursor(cursor);
    }
}

Usage example when updating an existing program: 

Program updatedProgram = new Program.Builder(program)
        .setEndTimeUtcMillis(newProgramEndTime)
        .build();
getContentResolver().update(TvContractCompat.buildProgramUri(updatedProgram.getId()),
        updatedProgram.toContentValues(), null, null);

Usage example when deleting a program: 

getContentResolver().delete(TvContractCompat.buildProgramUri(existingProgram.getId()),
        null, null);
