Usage
---------
The discogs package provides a client for accessing the Discogs API.
First of all import library and init client variable. According to discogs api documentation you [must provide your user-agent](https://www.discogs.com/developers/#page:home,header:home-general-information).
```go
import "github.com/irlndts/go-discogs"
```
Some requests require authentication (as any user). According to [Discogs](https://www.discogs.com/developers/#page:authentication,header:authentication-discogs-auth-flow), to send requests with Discogs Auth, you have two options: sending your credentials in the query string with key and secret parameters or a [token parameter](https://www.discogs.com/settings/developers).
```go
client, err := discogs.New(&discogs.Options{
UserAgent: "Some Name",
Currency: "EUR", // optional, "USD" (default), "GBP", "EUR", "CAD", "AUD", "JPY", "CHF", "MXN", "BRL", "NZD", "SEK", "ZAR" are allowed
