Prerequisites

You need to be registered on bricklink as a seller. Then, use this link to add an access token. Add your client IP address (if applicable) or 0.0.0.0 for both IP address and mask to be able to make API requests from any IP.

Install NuGet package

Package Manager Console

Install-Package BricklinkSharp

Command Line

nuget install BricklinkSharp

Setup credentials

BricklinkClientConfiguration.Instance.TokenValue = "<Your Token>";
BricklinkClientConfiguration.Instance.TokenSecret = "<Your Token Secret>";
BricklinkClientConfiguration.Instance.ConsumerKey = "<Your Consumer Key>";
BricklinkClientConfiguration.Instance.ConsumerSecret = "<Your Consumer Secret>";

IBricklinkClient

var client = BricklinkClientFactory.Build();

Usage recommendation

It's recommended to create and use one IBricklinkClient client throughout the lifetime of your application.

In applications using an IoC container you may register the IBricklinkClient as a service and inject it into consuming instances (e.g. controllers). See the below examples to register the IBricklinkClient as single instance (Singleton).

Autofac example

containerBuilder.Register(c => BricklinkClientFactory.Build())
	.As<IBricklinkClient>()
	.SingleInstance();

Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection example

services.AddSingleton(typeof(IBricklinkClient), provider =>
{
    return BricklinkClientFactory.Build();
});

Get minifigure image

var uri = client.GetMinifigImage("sw1093");

Get set image

var uri = client.GetSetImage("6090-1");

Ensure image url scheme

var uri = client.EnsureImageUrlScheme("//img.bricklink.com/ItemImage/PN/34/43898pb006.png", "https");
Console.WriteLine(uri.ToString());
//Prints: https://img.bricklink.com/ItemImage/PN/34/43898pb006.png
