## Adding SpotifyAPI-NET to your project
|
|
|
|
The library can be added to your project via the following methods:
|
|
|
|
### Package Managers
|
|
|
|
<InstallInstructions />
|
|
|
|
### Add DLL Manually
|
|
|
|
You can also grab the latest compiled DLL from our [GitHub Releases Page](https://github.com/johnnycrazy/spotifyapi-net/releases). It can be added to your project via Visual Studio or directly in your `.csproj`:
|
|
|
|
```xml
|
|
<ItemGroup>
|
|
<Reference Include="SpotifyAPI.Web">
|
|
<HintPath>..\Dlls\SpotifyAPI.Web.dll</HintPath>
|
|
</Reference>
|
|
</ItemGroup>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Compile Yourself
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone https://github.com/JohnnyCrazy/SpotifyAPI-NET.git
|
|
cd SpotifyAPI-NET
|
|
dotnet restore
|
|
dotnet build
|
|
|
|
ls -la SpotifyAPI.Web/bin/Debug/netstandard2.1/SpotifyAPI.Web.dll
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## First API Calls
|
|
|
|
You're now ready to issue your first calls to the Spotify API, a small console example:
|
|
|
|
```csharp
|
|
using System;
|
|
using System.Threading.Tasks;
|
|
using SpotifyAPI.Web;
|
|
|
|
class Program
|
|
{
|
|
static async Task Main()
|
|
{
|
|
var spotify = new SpotifyClient("YourAccessToken");
|
|
|
|
var track = await spotify.Tracks.Get("1s6ux0lNiTziSrd7iUAADH");
|
|
Console.WriteLine(track.Name);
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
Notice that the spotify api does not allow unauthorized API access. Wondering where you should get an access token from? For a quick test, head over to the [Spotify Developer Console](https://developer.spotify.com/console/get-album/) and generate an access token with the required scopes! For a permanent solution, head over to the [authentication guides](auth_introduction.md).

There is no online documentation for every available API call, but XML inline docs are available:

## Query/Body Parameters
|
|
|
|
If an API endpoint has query or body parameters, a request model can be supplied to the method
|
|
|
|
```csharp
|
|
// No optional or required query/body parameters
|
|
// The track ID is part of the request path --> it's not treated as query/body parameter
|
|
var track = await spotify.Tracks.Get("1s6ux0lNiTziSrd7iUAADH");
|
|
|
|
// Optional query/body parameter
|
|
var track = await spotify.Tracks.Get("1s6ux0lNiTziSrd7iUAADH", new TrackRequest{
|
|
Market = "DE"
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
// Sometimes, query/body parameters are also required!
|
|
var tracks = await spotify.Tracks.GetSeveral(new TracksRequest(new List<string> {
|
|
"1s6ux0lNiTziSrd7iUAADH",
|
|
"6YlOxoHWLjH6uVQvxUIUug"
|
|
}));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If a query/body parameter is required, it has to be supplied in the constructor of the request model. In the background, empty/null checks are also performed to make sure required parameters are not empty/null. If it is optional, it can be supplied as a property to the request model.
