using OsmSharp.IO.API;
// Create a client factory (pointing at the dev server)
var clientFactory = new ClientsFactory(null, new HttpClient(),
"https://master.apis.dev.openstreetmap.org/api/");
// After testing, use "https://www.openstreetmap.org/api/" for production
var client = clientFactory.CreateNonAuthClient();
var node = await client.GetNode(100);
var authClient = clientFactory.CreateBasicAuthClient("username", "password");
var changeSetTags = new TagsCollection() { new Tag("comment", "Deleting a node.") };
var changeSetId = await client.CreateChangeset(changeSetTags);
node.Version = await client.DeleteElement(changeSetId, node);
await client.CloseChangeset(changeSetId);
See the functional tests for examples of each operation.
