Owin.ServiceStack

Host ServiceStack (v3) as OWIN middleware. This library provides the necessary adapters to support any V3 ServiceStack application in an OWIN pipeline. The adapters convert the OWIN request/response objects into ServiceStack request/response objects and pass them to a special IAppHost implementation which does the rest!

Use

Using Owin.ServiceStack is real simple. First, download from Nuget:

Install-Package Owin.ServiceStack

Now, simply add a UseServiceStack statement to your IAppBuilder with arguments similar to what you'd typicaly pass to your current IAppHost implementation.

public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
  // This creates a IAppHost implementation and passes "Test" as the service name, 
  // and the current assembly as locations to look for IService implementations
  app.UseServiceStack("Test", GetType().Assembly);
}

However, if you are currently inheriting a IAppHost implementation (such as AppHostHttpListenerLongRunningBase or AppHostHttpListenerBase, you can do the following:

// Make sure what ever implementation your AppHost was inheriting before is 
// modified to inherit from ServiceStackHost. This prevents ServiceStack
// from trying to use a HttpListener, or similar method, to listen for connections
class MyCustomHost : ServiceStackHost
{
  public override Configure(Container c)
  {
    c.Register<Thing>(...)
  }
}

// Your IAppBuilder configuration
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
  // Create a IAppHost implementation
  var host = new MyCustomHost();
  host.Init();
  
  // Use an already constructed host and plug it into Owin
  app.UseServiceStack(host);
}
