Examples of real-time frameworks that you can use when building an ASP.NET applications.
The example applications in this repo are real-time chat apps.
The frameworks in the examples are:
Samples were written for a talk on Real-Time Web Apps & .NET - What are Your Options?
- Visual Studio 2015
- .NET Framework 4.5
- For the Pusher demo you will require a set of Pusher credentials
Open ASP.NET MVC5 Realtime Chat.sln in Visual Studio, run the project and a web page should open showing links to all the examples. It's suggested that you open two windows side-by-side to see each demo in action. Of course, you have to be running the same example in both windows in order to see the real-time updates.
I recommend ngrok as a localtunnel solution. This will expose your localhost publicly so that Nexmo can make a webhook callback to your localhost server.
ngrok http --host-header=localhost 55097
If you have subdomain support you can use somethink like:
ngrok http --subdomain=realtime --host-header=localhost 55097
Bug fixes and generally improvements also appreciated but I'd very much appreciate contribution to demonstrate using other real-time solutions and frameworks.
Please see the full list of issues and see if you can help there too.
I am trying to make sure that PubSub, Evented PubSub and RMI/RPC are demonstrated within the examples. So please consider this before updating an example to use a different communication pattern.
When contributing please try not make large changes to keep commits focused.
