gRPC (service) in ASP.NET Project
I want to run the gRPC service “inside” the asp.net application, the same way as I can configure signalR/WebSocket to run in process with asp.net rest api.
Reason I want to do this because I want to send signalR notifications to connected clients when I receive a gRPC request.
Here is my Startup.cs (asp.net web api + signalR + gRPC).
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services.AddControllers();
services.AddCors(options => options.AddPolicy("AllowLocalHost", corsPolicyBuilder =>
{
corsPolicyBuilder
.AllowAnyMethod()
.AllowAnyHeader()
.WithOrigins("http://localhost", "http://localhost:4200")
.AllowCredentials();
}));
services.AddSignalR();
services.AddGrpc();
services.AddGrpcSwagger();
services.AddSwaggerGen(c =>
{
c.SwaggerDoc("v1", new OpenApiInfo { Title = "MyBackend", Version = "v1", Description = "My proof of concept", });
});
}
// This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to configure the HTTP request pipeline.
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env)
{
if (env.IsDevelopment())
{
app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
app.UseSwagger();
app.UseSwaggerUI(c => c.SwaggerEndpoint("/swagger/v1/swagger.json", "MyBackend v1"));
}
app.UseCors("AllowLocalHost");
app.UseRouting();
app.UseAuthorization();
app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
{
endpoints.MapControllers();
//gRPC service
endpoints.MapGrpcService();
endpoints.MapGet("/", async context =>
{
await context.Response.WriteAsync("Communication with gRPC endpoints must be made through a gRPC client. To learn how to create a client, visit: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2086909");
});
endpoints.MapHub("/hub");
});
}
note: currently using .net 8
Is this possible and how?
