GameJoltDotNet

GameJoltDotNet is a GameJolt Game API client for the .NET Framework and can therefore be used by every .NET language, like C#, VB.NET or F#.

For best portability this library is based on .NET Standard 1.3 and can therefore be used on a wide variety of different platforms. The following platforms are supported:

Framework	Version
.NET Standard	1.3
.NET Core	1.0
.NET Framework	4.6
Mono	4.6
Xamarin.iOS	10.0
Xamarin.Mac	3.0
Xamarin.Android	7.0
Universal Windows Platform	10.0

GameJolt API Overview

Service	Description
Datastore	Manipulate items in a cloud-based data storage.
Time	Get the server's time.
Scores	Manipulate scores on score tables.
Sessions	Set up sessions for your game.
Trophies	Manage trophies for your game.
Users	Access user-based features.
Friends	List a user's friends.

This library is heavily based on the async/await mechanism of C# and can therefore be used without blocking the main thread. Furthermore it provides a convenience facade API, which internally uses the async/await API, but provides a simple, callback based API as a front end.

Example

First of all you have to create a new api instance:

var api = new GameJoltApi(gameId, privateKey);

Afterwards you can directly use the different GameJolt features.

// by using async/await:
var response = await api.Scores.FetchAsync();
if(response.Success) {
    // response.Data contains the list of scores
}

// or by using the callback mechanism:
api.Scores.Fetch(callback: response => {
    if(response.Success) {
        // response.Data contains the list of scores
    }
});

Some APIs require an authenticated user, because they set or get data for a certain user. The authentication can be done like so:

var auth = await api.Users.AuthAsync(userName, userToken);
if(auth.Success) {
    api.Trophies.SetAchieved(auth.Data, trophyId);
}
