Aliexpress Api high level client written on C#
- Build on Asp.net core 2.0
- Wraps all results into strong-typed models
- Parses API exceptions
- Tests included
- Service Collection extension for easy integration
To add client into dependency injection services:
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services.AddAliClient(settings =>
{
settings.AppKey = "YOURAPPKEY";
});
}Then client will be injected, for example simple MVC Controller:
[Route("api/[controller]")]
public class AliController : Controller
{
private readonly IAliexpressApiClient _aliClient;
public AliController(IAliexpressApiClient aliClient)
{
_logger = logger;
_aliClient = aliClient;
}
[HttpGet]
public async Task<IActionResult> Get(string keywords)
{
var items = await _aliClient.ListPromotionProduct(new ListPromotionProductParameters
{
Keywords = keywords
});
return Json(items);
}
}Original Aliexpress API documentation is Here
Note: You need to register at https://portals.aliexpress.com
To setup tests - please edit settings.json file and paste your App key, tracking and signature ids there.
Here is the harsh example of what you need to do.
// Get some products
var items = await _aliClient.ListPromotionProduct(new ListPromotionProductParameters
{
Keywords = keywords
});
// Create comma-separated list of urls
var urlsList = items.Products.Select(p => p.ProductUrl);
var urls = string.Join(",", urlsList);
// Get promotions urls by list of urls
var processed = await _aliClient.GetPromotionLinks(new GetPromotionLinksParameters
{
TrackingId = "YOURTRACKINGID",
Urls = urls
});
// Get promotion url and paste it in your original results
foreach(var i in items.Products)
{
var trueUrl = processed.PromotionUrls.SingleOrDefault(u => u.Url == i.ProductUrl);
if(trueUrl != null)
{
i.ProductUrl = trueUrl.PromotionUrl;
}
}
