A Dart library for using the IGDB.com API v4 https://api-docs.igdb.com/
It is highly recommended to read through the IGDB documentation to understand what exactly you can do with the API.
From the IGDB documentation on Web and Mobile applications
What?
The IGDB V4 API uses Oauth App Tokens, which aren’t suitable for mobile or frontend-only applications:
- There is a limit of roughly 25 app tokens active at any time
- Tokens expire after roughly 60 days. To help transition to V4, we are providing a quick way to setup a proxy for mobile applications.
How?
Please follow our proxy guide!!
To start using this, just add it to your pubspec:
See example/igdb_client_example.dart for a more in depth example of some of the things you can do with this client. Otherwise a simple example can be found below.
import 'package:igdb_client/igdb_client.dart';
// You should only run this once, then save it somewhere. It will eventually
// expire after ~60 days, at which point you will need to getOauthToken again
//
// The reason for this is that there is a limit of roughly 25 app tokens
// active at any time. See https://api-docs.igdb.com/#web-and-mobile-applications
var token = await IGDBClient.getOauthToken(MY_CLIENT_ID, MY_CLIENT_SECRET);
var client = new IGDBClient(MY_USER_AGENT, MY_CLIENT_ID, token.accessToken, logger: IGDBConsoleLogger());
var gamesResponse = await client.games(new IGDBRequestParameters(
limit: 3
));
print(IGDBClient.getPrettyStringFromMap(gamesResponse.toMap()));
if (gamesResponse.isSuccess()) {
// do something with gamesResponse.data
}
else {
// do something depending on gamesResponse.error
}
