Xbox360Client

This class enables you to consume the API feeds provided by 3rd parties for XBOX LIVES.

Currently Supported:

Requirements

  • Microsoft XBOX360 LIVE Account
  • FREE 360Voice.com Account

Implementation

To simply use this project, add the project to your solution, and add the reference to your website or application.

Then all you need to do is add the Application Settings in your web.config or app.config defining the Account you which to display.

Web.config/App.config

<appSettings>
     <add key="XboxGamerTag" value="darkv1p3r"/>
</appSettings>

Below is an example of how to implement this class.

Example Code


C# Example

var xboxManager = XboxFactory.GetXboxManager();
var xboxGamer = xboxManager.GetGamer();

if (xboxGamer.HasValue)
{
     var profile = xboxGamer.Value.Profile[0];
     imgProfilePic.ImageUrl = profile.ProfilePictureMiniUrl;
     lblGamerName.Text = profile.GamerTag;
     lblScore.Text = int.Parse(profile.GamerScore).ToString("G 0,000");
     lblZone.Text = "Zone: " + profile.PlayerZone;
}
else
{
     imgProfilePic.Visible = false;
     lblGamerName.Visible = false;
     lblScore.Visible = false;
     lblZone.Visible = false;
}


VB.Net Example:

Dim xboxManager = XboxFactory.GetXboxManager()
Dim xboxGamer = xboxManager.GetGamer()

If xboxGamer.HasValue Then
     Dim profile = xboxGamer.Value.Profile(0)
     imgProfilePic.ImageUrl = profile.ProfilePictureMiniUrl
     lblGamerName.Text = profile.GamerTag
     lblScore.Text = Integer.Parse(profile.GamerScore).ToString("G 0,000")
     lblZone.Text = "Zone: " & profile.PlayerZone
Else
     imgProfilePic.Visible = False
     lblGamerName.Visible = False
     lblScore.Visible = False
     lblZone.Visible = False
End If

There is also an overloaded method on .GetGamer() which gives you the ability to get anyones profile by defining their name in the call.
You do not need the web/app.config ApplicationSetting when using this method.
This is simply called as below:

Example Code


C# Example

var xboxManager = XboxFactory.GetXboxManager();
var xboxGamer = xboxManager.GetGamer("DarkV1p3r");

if (xboxGamer.HasValue)
{
     var profile = xboxGamer.Value.Profile[0];
     imgProfilePic.ImageUrl = profile.ProfilePictureMiniUrl;
     lblGamerName.Text = profile.GamerTag;
     lblScore.Text = int.Parse(profile.GamerScore).ToString("G 0,000");
     lblZone.Text = "Zone: " + profile.PlayerZone;
}
else
{
     imgProfilePic.Visible = false;
     lblGamerName.Visible = false;
     lblScore.Visible = false;
     lblZone.Visible = false;
}


VB.Net Example:

Dim xboxManager = XboxFactory.GetXboxManager()
Dim xboxGamer = xboxManager.GetGamer("DarkV1p3r")

If xboxGamer.HasValue Then
     Dim profile = xboxGamer.Value.Profile(0)
     imgProfilePic.ImageUrl = profile.ProfilePictureMiniUrl
     lblGamerName.Text = profile.GamerTag
     lblScore.Text = Integer.Parse(profile.GamerScore).ToString("G 0,000")
     lblZone.Text = "Zone: " & profile.PlayerZone
Else
     imgProfilePic.Visible = False
     lblGamerName.Visible = False
     lblScore.Visible = False
     lblZone.Visible = False
End If
