Owin Self Host Script Pack

What is it?

Owin self hosted HTTP server within scriptcs

Highlights:

• Creates a self hosted OWIN http server host.
• Allows instances of IOwinStartup to plug in as OWIN middleware components

Getting started with OWIN using the pack

• Copy and paste following block into script.csx
• scriptcs -install ScriptCs.Owin -pre
• scriptcs -install ScriptCs.WebApi -pre

public class TestController : ApiController {
	public string Get { 
		return "Hello World";
	}
}

Require<OwinSelfHost>();

var webApi = Require<WebApi>();
var config = webApi.Create();

using ( OwinSelfHost.CreateServer("http://localhost:8080", app => app.UseWebApi(config) ) ) {
	Console.WriteLine("Listening...");
	Console.ReadLine();
}

• Running as admin type scriptcs start.csx to launch the app.
• Open a browser to "http://localhost:8080/api/test";
• That's it, your OWIN self hosted server is running with webapi

Customizing

You can customize the componants loaded by passing in additional IOwinStartup
