About

TwitchLib is a powerful C# library that allows for interaction with various Twitch services. Currently supported services are: chat and whisper, API's (v5, helix, undocumented, and third party), PubSub event system, and Twitch Extensions. Below are the descriptions of the core components that make up TwitchLib.

Talk directly with us on Discord. https://discord.gg/8NXaEyV

  • TwitchLib.Client: Handles chat and whisper Twitch services. Complete with a suite of events that fire for virtually every piece of data received from Twitch. Supports Twitch Rooms. Helper methods also exist for replying to whispers or fetching moderator lists.
  • TwitchLib.Api: Complete coverage of v5, and Helix endpoints. The API is now a singleton class. This class allows fetching all publically accessable data as well as modify Twitch services like profiles and streams.
  • TwitchLib.PubSub: Supports all documented Twitch PubSub topics as well as a few undocumented ones.
  • TwitchLib.Extension: EBS implementation for validating requests, interacting with extension via PubSub and calling Extension endpoints.
  • TwitchLib.Unity: Unity wrapper system for TwitchLib to allow easy usage of TwitchLib in Unity projects!
  • TwitchLib.Webhook: Implements ASP.NET Core Webhook Receiver with TwitchLib. [Requires DotNet Core 2.1+]

Implementing

Below are basic examples of how to utilize each of the core components of TwitchLib. These are C# examples. NOTE: Twitchlib.API currently does not support Visual Basic. UPDATE: PR'd Visual Basic fix but requires testing by someone that uses it.

Twitchlib.API - CSharp

Note: TwitchAPI is now a singleton class that needs to be instantiated with optional clientid and auth token. Please know that failure to provide at least a client id, and sometimes an access token will result in exceptions. The v3 subclass operates almost entirely on Twitch usernames. v5 and Helix operate almost entirely on Twitch user id's. There are methods in all Twitch api versions to get corresponding usernames/userids.

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

using TwitchLib.Api;
using TwitchLib.Api.Helix.Models.Users;
using TwitchLib.Api.V5.Models.Subscriptions;

            api.Settings.ClientId = "client_id";
            api.Settings.AccessToken = "access_token";
        }

        private async Task ExampleCallsAsync()

            //Checks subscription for a specific user and the channel specified.
