GiantBomb C#

------------

[![Build status](https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/hh268dmpd08qfjqt?svg=true)](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/kamranayub/giantbomb-csharp)  

[![Build status](https://github.com/kamranayub/GiantBomb-CSharp/actions/workflows/dotnet.yml/badge.svg?branch=master)](https://github.com/kamranayub/GiantBomb-CSharp/actions/workflows/dotnet.yml)

This library aims to wrap the GiantBomb REST API in C# with strongly-typed models and is built on top of [RestSharp](https://github.com/restsharp/RestSharp).

It also helps make your life easier when dealing with searching because it recursively fetches your search results all at once to enable better sorting.

**Note: This is not really needed anymore due to search improvements in APIv2**

```c#

var giantBomb = new GiantBombRestClient();

// Get all search results

var results = giantBomb.SearchForAllGames("assassin's creed");

// Display

return results.OrderByDescending(g => g.DateAdded)

```

It's also easy to extend to support other GiantBomb resource types that aren't included by default. 

Just create a C# class representing the model and use `GetSingleResource` or `GetListResource`:

```c#

var giantBomb = new GiantBombRestClient();

// Get video

var video = await giantBomb.GetSingleResourceAsync("video", 2300, 123456);

```
