TmdbPlus

Typed .NET wrapper for the TMDB API. Classes and interfaces provided for each request/response for easy mapping

dotnet add package TmdbPlus

Setup

services.AddTmdb(token);

Takes a read access token. Returns IHttpClientBuilder

services.AddTmdb(token).AddStandardResilienceHandler();

The client is stateless, sessions are a parameter

Append To Response

TMDB has an append_to_response param for combining requests into one. Here, append_to_response is a [Flags] enum. Appended blocks come back as nullable properties, non-null when you asked for them:

var movie = await tmdb.Movies.GetAsync(550, MovieAppend.Credits | MovieAppend.Videos);

Console.WriteLine(movie.Title);

foreach (var cast in movie.Credits!.Cast)
    Console.WriteLine($"{cast.Name} as {cast.Character}");

{MovieAppend}.All grabs everything.

Appendable endpoints:

Endpoint Enum
Movies.GetAsync MovieAppend
Tv.GetAsync TvSeriesAppend
Tv.Seasons.GetAsync TvSeasonAppend
Tv.Episodes.GetAsync TvEpisodeAppend
People.GetAsync PersonAppend

Good to know

  • Every call has a generic twin: tmdb.Tv.GetAsync<TmdbSeriesDetails>(1396, …) deserializes into any class implementing ITvSeriesDetails<…>
  • Paging - TMDB only serves pages 1–500; past that it 400s with status_code 22
  • Retry / throttling - add .AddStandardResilienceHandler(). TMDB's limit is ~40 req/s and "could change at any time"
  • Rate limits - ~50 req/s and 20 connections per IP
