Show App

The Show app is a draft-enabled Fiori Elements editor for Star Wars TV shows and their episodes. It exposes the StarWarsShow service. Reading requires the Viewer role; creating or editing requires Editor.

Clicking an episode row opens the Episode Object Page.

Characters tab: Displays Show2People — characters who appear in any episode of this show (derived via the Episode2People aggregation view, not a physical junction to the show).

Episode Object Page

The Episode Object Page shows the episode's detail fields (season, episode number, title, air date, director, writer, runtime, timeline) and a single Episode Details tab containing the same fields in a form layout.

Annotation: annotate sws.Episode in cap/srv/show-fiori.cds.

Episode2* Sub-navigation

The StarWarsEpisode service exposes Episode2People, Episode2Planets, Episode2Starships, Episode2Vehicles, and Episode2Species as read-only projections. These are accessible directly via the OData service but are not surfaced as tabs in the Show app's Episode Object Page — they require direct API access or a future extension of the annotations.

Draft Workflow

Identical to the Film app. Shows use @odata.draft.enabled. Editing a show (including adding/removing episodes) creates a draft. Activating the draft commits the entire show + episodes composition atomically.
