One month ago, I open-sourced Steem.NET, a Microsoft .NET class library for Steem. If Microsoft Visual Studio is your favorite IDE, this is a must have to integrate you application with Steemit.
If you ever missed them, here the related posts:
The library has been updated with new features and recent changes in Steem
What’s new?
Hard fork 14.2 support
New functions introduced with Hardfork 14.2 are now fully supported.
transfer_to_savings
transfer_from_savings
cancel_transfer_from_savings
Websocket support
Steem.Net no more require a local node running.
Websocket connection support has been added and you can now connect your CSteemd object to an external seed node.
Example:
Using oSteem As New SteemAPI.CSteemd("ws://this.piston.rocks")
Dim lLastBlockID As Long = oSteem.get_dynamic_global_properties().Item("last_irreversible_block_num")
Dim oJBlock As Linq.JObject
For lBlockID As Long = lLastBlockID - 50 To lLastBlockID
oJBlock = oSteem.get_block(lBlockID)
... Process block ...
Next
End Using
Of course, for security reasons, CSteemWallet still requires a local node.
C# classes available
As promised, I ported all classes to C#. Not a big challenge, but it will save time for C# fans and make them more comfortable with their preferred language.
Enjoy!!!
Downloadable libraries, source code and samples can be found on github and are available for both VB.NET and C#.
