Appwrite.NET SDK

This SDK is compatible with Appwrite server version 1.6.x. For older versions, please checkprevious releases.

Appwrite is an open-source backend as a service server that abstract and simplify complex and repetitive development tasks behind a very simple to use REST API. Appwrite aims to help you develop your apps faster and in a more secure way. Use the.NET SDK to integrate your app with the Appwrite server to easily start interacting with all of Appwrite backend APIs and tools.

Installation

.NET

Add this reference to your project's.csprojfile:

<PackageReferenceInclude="Appwrite"Version="0.10.1"/>

You can install packages from the command line:

#Package Manager
Install-PackageAppwrite-Version0.10.1

#or.NET CLI
dotnet add package Appwrite--version0.10.1

Getting Started

Initialize & Make API Request

Once you have installed the package, it is extremely easy to get started with the SDK; all you need to do is import the package in your code, set your Appwrite credentials, and start making API calls. Below is a simple example:

usingAppwrite;
usingAppwrite.Services;
usingAppwrite.Models;

varclient=newClient()
.SetEndpoint("http://cloud.appwrite.io/v1")
.SetProject("5ff3379a01d25")// Your project ID
.SetKey("cd868db89");// Your secret API key

varusers=newUsers(client);

varuser=awaitusers.Create(
userId:ID.Unique(),
email:"email@example",
phone:"+123456789",
password:"password",
name:"Walter O'Brien");

Console.WriteLine(user.ToMap());

Error Handling

The Appwrite.NET SDK raises anAppwriteExceptionobject withmessage,code,andresponseproperties. You can handle any errors by catchingAppwriteExceptionand presenting themessageto the user or handling it yourself based on the provided error information. Below is an example.

varusers=newUsers(client);

try
{
varuser=awaitusers.Create(
userId:ID.Unique(),
email:"email@example",
phone:"+123456789",
password:"password",
name:"Walter O'Brien");
}
catch(AppwriteExceptione)
{
Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
}

Preparing Models for Databases API

For the.NET SDK, we use theNewtonsoft.Jsonlibrary for serialization/deserialization support. The default behavior converts property names fromPascalCasetocamelCaseon serializing to JSON. In case the names of attributes in your Appwrite collection are not created incamelCase,this serializer behavior can cause errors due to mismatches in the names in the serialized JSON and the actual attribute names in your collection.

The way to fix this is to add theJsonPropertyattribute to the properties in the POCO class you create for your model.

For e.g., if you have two attributes,name(stringtype) andrelease_date(DateTimetype), your POCO class would be created as follows:

publicclassTestModel
{
[JsonProperty("name")]
publicstringName{get;set;}

[JsonProperty("release_date")]
publicDateTimeReleaseDate{get;set;}
}

TheJsonPropertyattribute will ensure that your data object for the Appwrite database is serialized with the correct names.
