MailChimp.NET vNext wishlist
This page contains a wishlist of features / functionality you'd like in the next version of the API client.
On May 5, 2015 Mailchimp announced a new version of their API.
- Blog announcement: http://blog.mailchimp.com/announcing-mailchimp-api-v3-0/
- Dev blog announcement: http://devs.mailchimp.com/blog/api-v3-0-officially-launched/
- Documentation: http://kb.mailchimp.com/api
.NET 4.x includes several nice language enhancements and would make API development and maintenance a bit more friendly.
It would be nice to use the async / await model for methods. This would allow for a more flexible programming model
Where possible a function parameter should accept an Enum or a Date object instead of a String.
ServiceStack.Text is a bit of a hassle for many devs. We only support a specific version due to licensing restrictions, and considering we only use it for calling the service and JSON serialization and both of those things can be handled pretty nicely with native methods now in .NET -- we should be able to remove this dependency.
The latest version of ServiceStack.Text has a different license and the current version in use by Mailchimp.NET isn't maintained anymore. We should try to change the dependency of this library to Newtonsoft.Json.
