.Net Managed Client Object Model: Fetch All Webs, Libraries, Items

In SharePoint 2010, we have 3 client object model.

1. .Net Managed Client Object Model
2. Silverlight
3. ECMA Script / JavaScript

Today, I am presenting .NET Managed Client Object Model to retrieve all webs, libraries, items from SharePoint.

Prerequisites References for your desktop application:

1. Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll
2. Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Runtime.dll

My Custom Classes to feel like we are working on SharePoint Server Object model:

public class SPWeb
 {
     public string WebGUID { get; set; }
     public string Title { get; set; }
     public string ServerRelativeUrl { get; set; }
     public string ParentType { get; set; }
     public SPBase Parent { get; set; }
 }
 public class SPList
 {
     public string ListGUID { get; set; }
     public string Title { get; set; }
     public string ParentWebUrl { get; set; }
     public string RootFolderServerRelativeUrl { get; set; }
 }

public class SPFolder
 {
     public string ID { get; set; }
     public string UniqueID { get; set; }
     public string Name { get; set; }
     public string Title { get; set; }
     public string ParentWebUrl { get; set; }
     public string ListName { get; set; }
     public string ServerRelativeUrl { get; set; }
     public string ParentFolderServerRelativeUrl { get; set; }
 }

 public class SPListItem
 {
     public string ID { get; set; }
     public string Name { get; set; }
     public string Title { get; set; }
     public string ServerRelativeUrl { get; set; }
     public string Modified { get; set; }
     public string ModifiedBy { get; set; }
     public string CreatedBy { get; set; }
     public string Size { get; set; }
     public string Created { get; set; }
     public string UniqueId { get; set; }
     public string ListName { get; set; }
 }

Methods which is used to fetch Webs / libraries / Items:

public List<SPWeb> GetAllWebs(string webURL)
{
    var webColl = new List<SPWeb>();
    try
    {
    var currentWeb = _ctx.Site.OpenWeb(webURL);
    var allWebs = currentWeb.Webs;
    var webCollection = _ctx.LoadQuery(allWebs.Include(web => web.Title,
    web => web.Id, web => web.ServerRelativeUrl));
    _ctx.ExecuteQuery();
    webColl.AddRange(webCollection.Select(web => new SPWeb
                                {
                                  Title = web.Title,
                                  WebGUID = web.Id.ToString(),
                                  ServerRelativeUrl = web.ServerRelativeUrl
                                 }));
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
      // error log
    }
 return webColl;
}

public List<SPList> GetAllLibraries(string webURL)
{
   var listColl = new List<SPList>();
   try
   {
     var currentWeb = _ctx.Site.OpenWeb(webURL);
     var query = from list in currentWeb.Lists
                 where list.BaseType == BaseType.DocumentLibrary
                 select list;
     var AllLists = currentWeb.Lists;
     var listCollection = _ctx.LoadQuery(query.Include(myList => myList.Title,
                                   myList => myList.Id,
                                   myList => myList.RootFolder.ServerRelativeUrl,
                                   myList => myList.ParentWebUrl,
                                   myList => myList.Hidden,
                                   myList => myList.IsApplicationList));
  _ctx.ExecuteQuery();

  listColl.AddRange(from list in listCollection
                    where !list.Hidden
                    select new SPList
                    {
                        Title = list.Title,
                        ListGUID = list.Id.ToString(),
                        RootFolderServerRelativeUrl = list.RootFolder.ServerRelativeUrl,
                        ParentWebUrl = list.ParentWebUrl
                     });
   }
   catch (Exception ex)

       // error log

public List<SPFolder> GetAllFolder(string webURL, string listName, string folderName)
