Program

class Program : BaseProgram, Comparable<Program!>
androidx.tvprovider.media.tv.Program

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);
