HOWTO: Usage
Download or build a zip/tar of the application. Latest official releases are available at bintray. You can also build a zip rather quickly by following the build wiki.
Simply unzip/untar your distribution to a location of your choosing. For the remainder of this doc, assume you have installed to $ROOT. This directory is the one that contains the lib & bin subdirectories.
Go to $ROOT/bin/ and run sdjson-grabber on its own. This will dump all of the command line options to the screen. Please refer to the command line options for the latest usage information.
$ sdjson-grabber --username [id] --password [pwd] info

Use this command to fetch your epg data into a file called sdjson.epg. Run this command with -? on the end to get the full list of command line options. You can direct the output to a different location, tweak download settings, etc. Remember to point subsequent invocations of this command at your existing sdjson.epg file. Doing so will compute the delta of what you have vs. what's on the server and only download what's needed to keep your cache file in sync with the server.
