EmbedIO

Please star this project if you find it useful!

Additional Modules showing how to extend EmbedIO. Feel free to use these modules in your projects.

Bearer Token Module

Provides the ability to authenticate requests via a Bearer Token. This module creates a Token endpoint (at the predefined '/token' path) and all you need to do is provide a user validation delegate which authenticates the user. The module will create a JsonWebToken which can then be used by your client application for further requests. The module can check all incoming requests or a predefined set of paths. The standard header in use is the HTTP Authorization header.

You can easily add Bearer Token to your EmbedIO application using a Basic Authorization Server Provider or writing your own:

// Create basic authentication provider
var basicAuthProvider = new BasicAuthorizationServerProvider();
// You can set which routes to check; an empty routes array will secure entire server
var routes = new[] { "/secure.html" };

// Create Webserver and attach the Bearer Token Module
var server = WebServer.Create("http://localhost:9696/");
server.RegisterModule(new BearerTokenModule(basicAuthProvider, routes));

Nuget installation NuGet version

PM> Install-Package EmbedIO.BearerToken

Json Server Module

Based on the JsonServer's project, with this module, you are able to simply specify a JSON file as a database and use standard REST methods to create, update, retrieve and delete records from it.

// Create Webserver and attach JsonServerModule
var server = WebServer.Create("http://localhost:9696/");
server.RegisterModule(new JsonServerModule(jsonPath: Path.Combine(@"c:\web", "database.json")));

Supported methods:

  • GET collection (http://yourhost/entity)
  • GET single (http://yourhost/entity/1 where 1 is the ID)
  • POST (http://yourhost/entity with POST body the JSON object)
  • PUT (http://yourhost/entity/1 with POST body the JSON object)
  • DELETE (http://yourhost/entity/1 where 1 is the ID)

LiteLib WebAPI

Similar to Json Server Module, but you can serve an SQLite file with all HTTP verbs using LiteLib library.

// Create Webserver and attach LiteLibModule with a LiteLib DbContext
var server = WebServer.Create("http://localhost:9696/");
server.RegisterModule(new LiteLibModule<TestDbContext>(new TestDbContext(), "/dbapi/"));

Supported methods:

  • GET collection (http://yourhost/entity)
  • GET single (http://yourhost/entity/1 where 1 is the ID)
  • POST (http://yourhost/entity with POST body the JSON object)
  • PUT (http://yourhost/entity/1 with POST body the JSON object)
  • DELETE (http://yourhost/entity/1 where 1 is the ID)

Nuget installation NuGet version

PM> Install-Package EmbedIO.LiteLibWebApi

Markdown Static Module

The Markdown Static Module takes in a static Markdown file and converts it into HTML before returning a response. It will accept markdown/html/htm extensions (This could become middleware later).

// Create Webserver and attach Markdown Static Module
var server = WebServer.Create("http://localhost:9696/");
server.RegisterModule(new MarkdownStaticModule(@"c:\web"));

OWIN Integration

Note: The support to OWIN is not under development, and it may not work correctly. EmbedIO can use the OWIN platform in two different ways:

  • You can use EmbedIO modules within an OWIN Server. In other words, host your application with an OWIN server and make use of EmbedIO modules.
public class Program
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Entry point
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="args"></param>
    private static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        var options = new StartOptions
        {
            ServerFactory = OwinServerFactory.ServerFactoryName,
            Port = 4578
        };

        using (WebApp.Start<Startup>(options))
        {
            OwinServerFactory.Log.DebugFormat("Running a http server on port {0}", options.Port);
            Console.ReadKey();
        }
    }
}

/// <summary>
/// Startup object
/// </summary>
public class Startup
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Configure the OwinApp
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="app"></param>
    public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
    {
        app.UseErrorPage();
        app.UseDirectoryBrowser();
        app.UseRazor(InitRoutes);
        // Attach a EmbedIO WebAPI Controller directly to OwinApp Configuration
        app.UseWebApi(typeof (PeopleController).Assembly);
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Initialize the Razor files
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="table"></param>
    public static void InitRoutes(IRouteTable table)
    {
        table
            .AddFileRoute("/about/me", "Views/about.cshtml", new { Name = "EmbedIO Razor", Date = DateTime.UtcNow });
    }
}
  • You can also use OWN middleware within EmbedIO. In other words, you can do stuff like serving Razor views from EmbedIO.
public class Program
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Entry point
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="args"></param>
    private static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        // UseOwin() function returns Owin App for configuration
        using (var webServer = WebServer
                    .Create("http://localhost:4578")
                    .WithWebApi(typeof (PeopleController).Assembly)
                    .UseOwin((owinApp) => 
                        owinApp
                        .UseDirectoryBrowser()
                        .UseRazor(InitRoutes)))
                {
                    webServer.RunAsync();
                    Console.ReadKey();
                }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Initialize the Razor files
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="table"></param>
    public static void InitRoutes(IRouteTable table)
    {
        table
            .AddFileRoute("/about/me", "Views/about.cshtml", new { Name = "EmbedIO Razor", Date = DateTime.UtcNow });
    }
}
