YouTrackSharp

.NET Standard 1.3 Library to access YouTrack API.

For more information on YouTrack visit jetbrains.com/youtrack.

Getting started

First of all, install YouTrackSharp into your project using a NuGet client.

Install-Package YouTrackSharp

If you want to work with pre-release builds, configure our MyGet feed as a package source.

To communicate with a YouTrack server instance, we'll need a connection. It is recommended to always use permanent tokens to authenticate against YouTrack, using the BearerTokenConnection. For YouTrack instances that do not have token support, UsernamePasswordConnection can be used.

var connection = new BearerTokenConnection("https://ytsharp.myjetbrains.com/youtrack/", "perm:abcdefghijklmn");

// or:

var connection = new UsernamePasswordConnection("https://ytsharp.myjetbrains.com/youtrack/", "username", "password");

Once a connection is made, various services can be used. For example to get a list of projects the user has access to, the ProjectsService can be used:

var projectsService = connection.CreateProjectsService();
var projectsForCurrentUser = await projectsService.GetAccessibleProjects();

Other services are available as well, mapping to the YouTrack REST API endpoints and operations that are available.

Supported operations

YouTrackSharp is a .NET Library to access the YouTrack API. Main features:

• Targets .NET Standard 1.3 - can be used with pretty much any .NET platform!
• All calls are async all the way.
• Handles serialization of YouTrack's timestamps into DateTime where possible.

  • User management through UserManagementService
  • Time Tracker management through TimeTrackingManagementService

Many other API's are not included yet - feel free to tackle one of the UpForGrabs issues and make YouTrackSharp better!
