WebsiteCarbonAPI-NET 1.0.0

WebsiteCarbon-NET

A C# API wrapper for the website websitecarbon.com. A website that calculates carbon emissions of websites using a rough estimate

Features

• Get information for websites and number of bytes passed
• Asynchronous method calls

Credits:

• Website Carbon Calculator - Website Carbon API
• ReactiveUI - Refit

Notes:

• Getting a result from this API takes a bit of time to calculate the first time. Future calls for the same URL / information within 24 hours will be much faster
• Exceptions come from Refit in the form of APIException

Example Use:

Getting information from a website

WebsiteCarbonClient client = new WebsiteCarbonClient();
WebsiteCarbon carbon = await client.GetWebsiteInformationAsync("https://github.com/");
Console.WriteLine(carbon.Bytes);
Console.WriteLine(carbon.Green);
Console.WriteLine(carbon.CleanerThan);
Console.WriteLine(carbon.Statistics.CO2.Grid.Grams);
Console.WriteLine(carbon.Statistics.CO2.Renewable.Litres);
Console.WriteLine(carbon.Timestamp);

Getting information from a number of bytes

WebsiteCarbonClient client = new WebsiteCarbonClient();
WebsiteCarbon carbon = await client.GetDataInBytesInformationAsync(100, 1); // 100 is # of bytes, 1 is green status (can be any number, preferably 0 or 1 representing False and True respectively)
Console.WriteLine(carbon.CleanerThan);
Console.WriteLine(carbon.Statistics.AdjustedBytes);
Console.WriteLine(carbon.Statistics.CO2.Grid.Grams);
Console.WriteLine(carbon.Statistics.CO2.Renewable.Litres);
Console.WriteLine(carbon.Timestamp);
