Quick Start

NuGet Package License

This is a .NET wrapper library with which developers can build .NET applications that integrate with the Trakt.tv API and access its features and data.

Install latest Trakt.NET package

dotnet add package Trakt.NET

Get basic info about the show "The Last of Us"

using System;
using TraktNet;
using TraktNet.Exceptions;
using TraktNet.Objects.Get.Shows;
using TraktNet.Responses;
using TraktNet.Services;

var client = new TraktClient("Your Trakt Client ID");

try
{
    TraktResponse<ITraktShow> showResponse = await client.Shows.GetShowAsync("the-last-of-us");
    ITraktShow show = showResponse.Value;
    
    Console.WriteLine($"Title: {show.Title}");
    Console.WriteLine($"Year: {show.Year}");
    Console.WriteLine();

    string json = await TraktSerializationService.SerializeAsync(show, indentation: true);
    Console.WriteLine(json);
}
catch (TraktException ex)
{
    Console.WriteLine(ex);
}

Output:

Title: The Last of Us
Year: 2023

{
    "title": "The Last of Us",
    "year": 2023,
    "ids": {
        "trakt": 158947,
