    About 0-stripping, if you are going to use the value as a number, I would got with + 0; else s/^0+//. (Perl, as you know, would convert the string to number if needed.)

    If you are going to return a hash reference from extract_episode_data() ...

    sub extract_show_info { my $input_string = shift(); my $result = undef; if ( $result = extract_episode_data($input_string) ) { $result->{type} = 'se'; } elsif ( my @date = $_ =~ /$RE{time}{ymd}{-keep}/ ) { $result = { ... }; } return $result; } sub extract_episode_data { my $input_string = shift(); if ( ... ) { my $episode_data = { season => $1, episode => $2 }; return $episode_data; } else { return; } }

    ... why not set the type in there too? That would lead to something like ...

    sub extract_show_info { my $input_string = shift @_; my $result = extract_episode_data($input_string); $result and return $result; if ( my @date = $_ =~ /$RE{time}{ymd}{-keep}/ ) { return { ... }; } return; } sub extract_episode_data { my $input_string = shift @_; if ( ... ) { return { type => 'se', season => $1, episode => $2 }; } return; }
      ... why not set the type in there too?

      Makes sense, but I was trying to keep the two completely separate, de-coupled or whatever the right word is. Then I can re-use the season-episode sub cleanly for something else? Maybe I'm over-thinking.

    Note to self: Regexp::Common::time provides the time regex, not Regexp::Common.

    One would be lucky to always have the date as year-month-day as the only variation instead of other two. So I take it then the files not matching your season-episode regex, would have the date only in that format?.

      That's a really tricky question.

      I don't see many other date formats, and there's really no way, in code at least, to deal with the possibility that someone has got the month and date the wrong way round and their August 1 is really January 8.

        You could look at consecutively-numbered episodes and see if they are 1 week (or whatever) apart. Or at least that each later-numbered episode has a later date.

        Yup ... may need to account for idiosyncrasies per provider, say by assigning a different regex/parser.
