## Quick Intro

[SteamWebAPIs.jl](https://neroblackstone.github.io/SteamWebAPIs.jl/v1.0/) is the first julia package I wrote! It is a type-robust Julia wrapper for the [SteamWebAPI](https://steamcommunity.com/dev), which means that all function parameters and returns have documented types.

## Easy Start

Please apply for your [steam api key](https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey) first. Then paste your api key at `$HOME/.steam/apikey.txt` . Or save api key to `STEAM_KEY` environment variable.

Next you can use all Steam Web API functions, for example:

Get the number of games you purchased but never played:

```julia-repl
julia> using SteamWebAPIs
julia> init_key()
julia> count(g->g.playtime_forever==0,get_owned_games(76561198202322923).games)
73

```

Wow ! Valve, please refund!
