Implemented-API-methods.RmdThis is a reference list of trakt.tv API methods tracked by
this package, their endpoint URLs (with user-specified parameters
indicated by a : prefix) and their implementation status.
Methods with an implementation link are available in this package; blank
entries are tracked but not yet implemented. Authenticated methods are
indicated as such.
Write-only endpoints (creating/updating/deleting items, scrobbling, check-ins) are omitted as they are outside the scope of this package.
Currently 86 of 116 tracked GET endpoints are implemented.
