UWaterloo API - C# Client

##About

Calls University of Waterloo API endpoints and converts the returned data into static typed objects. For a list of endpoints, visit the API's offical documentation here

The motivation for this project was to create a lower barrier of entry to the API, as users no longer have to worry about WebClients, Deserilzation, etc.

##Installation

Distributed via NuGet. You can find the package page here

To install UWaterloo API Client, run the following command in the Package Manager Console

PM> Install-Package UWaterlooApi

##Usage

API calls are made by calling members on a UWaterlooApi object. e.g. uWaterlooApi.FoodServices.WeeklyFoodMenu(2013, 12)

All API call methods return type uWaterlooApi.ApiRequest<T> where T is the strongly typed object that deals with the particular API call.

ApiRequest<T> is a wrapper containing 2 fields: meta, and data.

• meta contains meta information about the API call. This information is returned from the server on every API call.
• data contains the data section returend from the API call. This will be of type T.

##Examples

UWaterlooApi uWaterlooApiClient = new UWaterlooApi("YOUR-API-KEY");

To get the Weekly Food menu for the 12th week of 2013

var foodServicesWeeklyMenu = uwaterlooApiClient.FoodServices.WeeklyFoodMenu(2013, 12);
