# Get one video

> One video by its ID, slug or exact title.

```ts AdonisJS wrap theme={"dark"}
import app from '@adonisjs/core/services/app'
import { SiteClient } from '@fetchski/attract-cms-sdk'

const site = await app.container.make(SiteClient)
const mediaVideo = await site.fetchskiMedia().getMediaVideo({ id: 'clx8m2k4p0000a1b2c3d4e5f6' })
```

```json 200 wrap theme={"dark"}
{
  "_id": "clx8k2m0a0002abcd1234efgh",
  "slug": "video-product-tour",
  "title": "Product tour",
  "folderPath": "Marketing",
  "extension": "mp4",
  "bytes": 18430211,
  "url": "https://cdn.example.com/attachments/def456-product-tour.mp4",
  "poster": "https://cdn.example.com/attachments/ghi789-tour-poster.full.jpg"
}
```

## In your app

A controller answers a route on your app: it calls `getMediaVideo()` and returns the answer.

**1. Add the controller**

```ts app/controllers/get_media_video_controller.ts theme={"dark"}
import { inject } from '@adonisjs/core'
import type { HttpContext } from '@adonisjs/core/http'
import { SiteClient } from '@fetchski/attract-cms-sdk'

@inject()
export default class GetMediaVideoController {
  constructor(protected site: SiteClient) {}

  async handle({ params }: HttpContext) {
    return this.site.fetchskiMedia().getMediaVideo({ id: params.id })
  }
}
```

**2. Add the route**

```ts start/routes.ts theme={"dark"}
import router from '@adonisjs/core/services/router'

const GetMediaVideoController = () => import('#controllers/get_media_video_controller')

router.get('/fetchski-media/videos/:id', [GetMediaVideoController])
```

**3. Call it**

```bash Terminal theme={"dark"}
curl http://localhost:3333/fetchski-media/videos/clx8m2k4p0000a1b2c3d4e5f6
```

With `node ace serve` running, it prints its answer as JSON.

> [accordion] Required parameters
>
> One object, e.g. `getMediaVideo({ id })`; leave out the optional fields.
>
> **id** `string` *required*
>
> **Required.** The video’s document ID, its slug, or its exact title (case-insensitive), tried in that order.

> [accordion] Returns
>
> A `MediaVideo`. One video from the Videos library. Read its properties (`mediaVideo.id`): each says whether the site always sends it. The example answer is the site’s wire JSON: one key differs from the property names (`_id` → `id`).
>
> **id** `string | null`
>
> **Always sent, can be `null`.** The video’s document ID (aposDocId).
>
> **slug** `string | null`
>
> **Always sent, can be `null`.** Reference a video in an MDX import by it.
>
> **title** `string | null`
>
> **Always sent, can be `null`.** Its title.
>
> **folderPath** `string | null`
>
> **Always sent, can be `null`.** The media folder it sits in.
>
> **extension** `string | null`
>
> **Always sent, can be `null`.** File extension, e.g. `mp4`.
>
> **bytes** `number | null`
>
> **Always sent, can be `null`.** Size of the file.
>
> **url** `string | null`
>
> **Always sent, can be `null`.** The video file.
>
> **poster** `string | null`
>
> **Always sent, can be `null`.** The poster image, when one is set.

> [accordion] Errors
>
> Nothing to catch: the SDK retries what is safe, and throws the rest as the classes below. Your exception handler turns them into your app’s own answers, once for every call (see [Map SDK errors to responses](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/adonisjs/calling-the-api.md#map-sdk-errors-to-responses)); catch only what you want to react to here.
>
> **ValidationFailed** `400`
>
> The request is not valid.
>
> **Retried first:** No. **Read:** `errors` (field → messages), `siteMessage`.
>
> **AuthenticationFailed** `401`
>
> The API key is missing, malformed, unknown, disabled, expired or archived, or a request its signing mode requires to be signed is not.
>
> **Retried first:** No. **Read:** `siteMessage`, `errorName`, `data`.
>
> **Forbidden** `403`
>
> The API key lacks the scope this route needs, is used from outside its allowlist, or the caller is anonymous.
>
> **Retried first:** No. **Read:** `siteMessage`, `errorName`, `data`.
>
> **NotFound** `404`
>
> Nothing matches the identifier.
>
> **Retried first:** No. **Read:** `siteMessage`, `errorName`, `data`.
>
> **RateLimited** `429`
>
> The key used up its reads-per-minute limit. Still, after the client’s own waits and retries.
>
> **Retried first:** Yes: the client waits `Retry-After` (1 s when absent; over 60 s it gives up at once) and retries, up to `retries` times (2 by default). **Read:** `retryAfter` (seconds, or null), `siteMessage`.
>
> **SiteError** `5xx`
>
> The site failed (or something in front of it did). Its logs say why.
>
> **Retried first:** A 502, 503 or 504: yes, after 0.5 s then 1 s. A 500: no. **Read:** `siteMessage`, `errorName`, `data`.
>
> **SiteUnreachable** `no answer`
>
> No answer: DNS, a refused connection, TLS, or the timeout (15 s per attempt by default).
>
> **Retried first:** Yes, after 0.5 s then 1 s. **Read:** `reason`, `neverConnected`.
>
> **RequestNotSent** `not sent`
>
> The client refused to send it (e.g. a path segment of `..`); the site never saw it.
>
> **Retried first:** No. **Read:** `reason` (what to change).
>
> **SiteRequestFailed** `any other`
>
> Any other status, or a success whose JSON doesn’t match this SDK version’s types (update the SDK).
>
> **Retried first:** No. **Read:** `reason`, `status`.
>
> **UnknownSite** `setup`
>
> `sites.forSite('acme')` named a slug `config/attract.ts` doesn’t list (with the keys in the database: no row in `attract_api_keys`).
>
> **Retried first:** No: nothing was sent. **Read:** `message`, `slug`.
>
> **SiteConfigurationError** `setup`
>
> The site’s entry is wrong: a malformed `baseUrl` or key, a key filed under another slug, or no default site. `node ace attract:check` names the fix.
>
> **Retried first:** No: nothing was sent. **Read:** `message` (what to fix).

## Behavior

* **Access:** an API key with `videos:read` — or `media:all`, or `admin:all` — or any signed-in CMS user (who sees only what they may view). Anonymous callers get 403.
* **Retries:** a read is safe to repeat: the client retries it on no answer, a 502/503/504 and a 429.
* **Timeout:** 15 s per attempt by default; raise `timeout` (milliseconds) in `config/attract.ts` for longer.

## More examples

```ts Or null wrap theme={"dark"}
import app from '@adonisjs/core/services/app'
import { SiteClient } from '@fetchski/attract-cms-sdk'

const site = await app.container.make(SiteClient)
const mediaVideo = await site.fetchskiMedia().findMediaVideo({ id: 'clx8m2k4p0000a1b2c3d4e5f6' }) // MediaVideo | null: null when the site answers 404
```

## Test it

It calls the controller above with the SDK faked: `fakeAttract()` puts the fake in the container for this one test, and it answers every call with a valid example, so nothing leaves your machine and no key is read. Save it as `tests/unit/fetchski_media_get_media_video.spec.ts`, then run your tests:

```ts tests/unit/fetchski_media_get_media_video.spec.ts theme={"dark"}
import { test } from '@japa/runner'
import app from '@adonisjs/core/services/app'
import testUtils from '@adonisjs/core/services/test_utils'
import { fakeAttract } from '@fetchski/attract-cms-adonis/testing'
import GetMediaVideoController from '#controllers/get_media_video_controller'

test('fetchskiMedia.getMediaVideo', async () => {
  const site = fakeAttract()

  const ctx = await testUtils.createHttpContext()
  ctx.params = { id: 'clx8m2k4p0000a1b2c3d4e5f6' }
  const controller = await app.container.make(GetMediaVideoController)
  await controller.handle(ctx)

  site.assertCalled('fetchskiMedia.getMediaVideo', (args) => args.id === 'clx8m2k4p0000a1b2c3d4e5f6')
})
```

```bash Terminal theme={"dark"}
node ace test
```
