WebDAV .NET client 
Asynchronous cross-platform WebDAV client for .NET Standard. It aims to have a full support of RFC4918.
Installation
Install WebDav.Client via NuGet.
Install-Package WebDav.Client
Supported platforms
- .NET Framework 4.5+
- .NET Core
- Mono
- Xamarin
- UWP
For more information see .NET Standard.
Usage notes
WebDavClient uses HttpClient under the hood that is why it is a good practice to share a single instance for the lifetime of the application.
If you use a dependency injection container to manage dependencies it is a good practice to register WebDavClient as a singleton.
It's also possible to instantiate WebDavClient with a pre-configured instance of HttpClient.
When using GetRawFile / GetProcessedFile don't forget to dispose the response.
Usage examples
Basic usage:
class Example
{
public static IWebDavClient _client = new WebDavClient();
public void MakeCalls()
{
var result = await _client.Propfind("http://mywebdav/1.txt");
if (result.IsSuccessful)
// continue ...
else
// handle an error
}
}Using BaseAddress:
var clientParams = new WebDavClientParams { BaseAddress = new Uri("http://mywebdav/") };
using (var client = new WebDavClient(clientParams))
{
await client.Propfind("1.txt");
}Operations with files and directories (resources & collections):
var clientParams = new WebDavClientParams { BaseAddress = new Uri("http://mywebdav/") };
using (var client = new WebDavClient(clientParams))
{
await client.Mkcol("mydir"); // create a directory
await client.Copy("source.txt", "dest.txt"); // copy a file
await client.Move("source.txt", "dest.txt"); // move a file
await client.Delete("file.txt", "dest.txt"); // delete a file
using (var response = await client.GetRawFile("file.txt")) // get a file without processing from the server
{
// use response.Stream
}
using (var response = await client.GetProcessedFile("file.txt")) // get a file that can be processed by the server
{
// use response.Stream
}
await client.PutFile("file.xml", File.OpenRead("file.xml")); // upload a resource
}Authentication:
var clientParams = new WebDavClientParams
{
BaseAddress = new Uri("http://mywebdav/"),
Credentials = new NetworkCredential("user", "12345")
};
_client = new WebDavClient(clientParams);PROPFIND example:
// list files & subdirectories in 'mydir'
var result = await _client.Propfind("http://mywebdav/mydir");
if (result.IsSuccessful)
{
foreach (var res in result.Resources)
{
Trace.WriteLine("Name: " + res.DisplayName);
Trace.WriteLine("Is directory: " + res.IsCollection);
// etc.
}
}PROPFIND with custom properties:
var propfindParams = new PropfindParameters
{
Namespaces = new [] { new NamespaceAttr("myns", "https://example.com/") },
CustomProperties = new [] { XName.Get("myprop", "https://example.com/") }
};
var result = await client.Propfind("http://mywebdav/mydir", propfindParams);Custom headers:
var propfindParams = new PropfindParameters
{
Headers = new List<KeyValuePair<string, string>>
{
new KeyValuePair<string, string>("User-Agent", "Not a browser")
}
};
var result = await _client.Propfind("http://mywebdav/1.txt", propfindParams);Content-Range or other content headers:
// Content headers need to be set directly on HttpContent instance.
var content = new StreamContent(File.OpenRead("test.txt"));
content.Headers.ContentRange = new ContentRangeHeaderValue(0, 2);
var result = await _client.PutFile("http://mywebdav/1.txt", content);Synchronous API:
// will block the current thread, so use it cautiously
var result = _client.Propfind("1.txt").Result;License
