I need some help to understand TheMovieDatabaseSwiftWrapper usage

Using Swift
1

Hi, I'm beginner at a very low level at the moment, and I'm stuck since long time on this situation.

I'm trying to use TheMovieDatabaseSwiftWrapper

    MovieMDB.similar(apikey, movieID: 334, page: 1, language: "en"){
  data, relatedMovies in
  if let movie = relatedMovies{
    print(movie[0].title)
    print(movie[0].original_title)
    print(movie[0].release_date)
    print(movie[0].overview)
  }
}

I wonder if anyone can explain little bit on how should I do to be able to use as example print(movie[0].title)
outside the if let movie = relatedMovies.

I want to use it on CollectionViewCell, what is the best solution?

It sounds like you are trying to unwrap an optional to use later in the function. Have you tried “guard let”?

I have another question about the same framework.

If I have a String that represents a movie name, how wold it be possible to check if the movie name is actually a movie and not a tv show or anything else?

That second question has little to do with Swift itself, so this isn’t really the place.

You can ask the framework authors directly. But I would peruse their documentation first to see if the answer is already there.
