LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK

SDK Example Usage

Example

using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK;
using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Components;

var sdk = new PlexAPI(
    accessToken: "<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",
    clientID: "3381b62b-9ab7-4e37-827b-203e9809eb58",
    clientName: "Plex for Roku",
    clientVersion: "2.4.1",
    platform: "Roku",
    deviceNickname: "Roku 3"
);

var res = await sdk.Server.GetServerCapabilitiesAsync();

// handle response

Retries

Some of the endpoints in this SDK support retries. If you use the SDK without any configuration, it will fall back to the default retry strategy provided by the API. However, the default retry strategy can be overridden on a per-operation basis, or across the entire SDK.

To change the default retry strategy for a single API call, simply pass a RetryConfig to the call:

using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK;
using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Components;

var sdk = new PlexAPI(
    accessToken: "<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",
    clientID: "3381b62b-9ab7-4e37-827b-203e9809eb58",
    clientName: "Plex for Roku",
    clientVersion: "2.4.1",
    platform: "Roku",
    deviceNickname: "Roku 3"
);

var res = await sdk.Server.GetServerCapabilitiesAsync(retryConfig: new RetryConfig(
    strategy: RetryConfig.RetryStrategy.BACKOFF,
    backoff: new BackoffStrategy(
        initialIntervalMs: 1L,
        maxIntervalMs: 50L,
        maxElapsedTimeMs: 100L,
        exponent: 1.1
    ),
    retryConnectionErrors: false
));

// handle response

If you'd like to override the default retry strategy for all operations that support retries, you can use the RetryConfig optional parameter when intitializing the SDK:

using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK;
using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Components;

var sdk = new PlexAPI(
    retryConfig: new RetryConfig(
        strategy: RetryConfig.RetryStrategy.BACKOFF,
        backoff: new BackoffStrategy(
            initialIntervalMs: 1L,
            maxIntervalMs: 50L,
            maxElapsedTimeMs: 100L,
            exponent: 1.1
        ),
        retryConnectionErrors: false
    ),
    accessToken: "<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",
    clientID: "3381b62b-9ab7-4e37-827b-203e9809eb58",
    clientName: "Plex for Roku",
    clientVersion: "2.4.1",
    platform: "Roku",
    deviceNickname: "Roku 3"
);

var res = await sdk.Server.GetServerCapabilitiesAsync();

// handle response

Error Handling

Handling errors in this SDK should largely match your expectations. All operations return a response object or throw an exception.

By default, an API error will raise a LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.SDKException exception, which has the following properties:

When custom error responses are specified for an operation, the SDK may also throw their associated exceptions. You can refer to respective Errors tables in SDK docs for more details on possible exception types for each operation. For example, the GetServerCapabilitiesAsync method throws the following exceptions:

Example

using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK;
using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Components;
using System;
using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors;

var sdk = new PlexAPI(
    accessToken: "<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",
    clientID: "3381b62b-9ab7-4e37-827b-203e9809eb58",
    clientName: "Plex for Roku",
    clientVersion: "2.4.1",
    platform: "Roku",
    deviceNickname: "Roku 3"
);

try
{
    var res = await sdk.Server.GetServerCapabilitiesAsync();

    // handle response
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    if (ex is GetServerCapabilitiesBadRequest)
    {
        // Handle exception data
        throw;
    }
    else if (ex is GetServerCapabilitiesUnauthorized)
    {
        // Handle exception data
        throw;
    }
    else if (ex is LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.SDKException)
    {
        // Handle default exception
        throw;
    }
}

Server Selection

Select Server by Index

You can override the default server globally by passing a server index to the serverIndex: number optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. The selected server will then be used as the default on the operations that use it. This table lists the indexes associated with the available servers:

Variables

Some of the server options above contain variables. If you want to set the values of those variables, the following options are provided for doing so:

• protocol: ServerProtocol
• ip: string
• port: string

Override Server URL Per-Client

The default server can also be overridden globally by passing a URL to the serverUrl: str optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:

Override Server URL Per-Operation

The server URL can also be overridden on a per-operation basis, provided a server list was specified for the operation. For example:

using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK;
using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Components;

var sdk = new PlexAPI(
    accessToken: "<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",
    clientID: "3381b62b-9ab7-4e37-827b-203e9809eb58",
    clientName: "Plex for Roku",
    clientVersion: "2.4.1",
    platform: "Roku",
    deviceNickname: "Roku 3"
);

var res = await sdk.Plex.GetCompanionsDataAsync(serverUrl: "https://plex.tv/api/v2");

// handle response

Authentication

Per-Client Security Schemes

This SDK supports the following security scheme globally:

To authenticate with the API the AccessToken parameter must be set when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:

using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK;
using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Components;

var sdk = new PlexAPI(
    accessToken: "<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",
    clientID: "3381b62b-9ab7-4e37-827b-203e9809eb58",
    clientName: "Plex for Roku",
    clientVersion: "2.4.1",
    platform: "Roku",
    deviceNickname: "Roku 3"
);

var res = await sdk.Server.GetServerCapabilitiesAsync();

// handle response
