I made another post on this topic but it hasn't been approved yet, lets wait for that.

I posted before about trying to use the dynamic web api controllers with WPF/Xamarin but I don't think I got a response yet.

I thought that I could host my webapi module in an Owin self hosting console project.

So the console program depends on my web api module

[DependsOn(typeof(ReadyCareWebApiModule))] class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { } } I came up with this so far for the statup mehod.

using Abp; using Abp.Modules; using Abp.WebApi.Configuration; // Add the following usings: using Owin; using System.Web.Http;

namespace ReadyCare.Owin.WebApi.Host { public class Startup : AbpModule { // This method is required by Katana: public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app) { AbpBootstrapper bootstrapper = new AbpBootstrapper();

        bootstrapper.Initialize();

        WindsorDependencyResolver windsorDependencyResolver = new WindsorDependencyResolver();
        windsorDependencyResolver.IocManager = this.IocManager;

        var httpConfiguration = IocManager.Resolve<IAbpWebApiModuleConfiguration>().HttpConfiguration;

        httpConfiguration.DependencyResolver = windsorDependencyResolver;

        // Use the extension method provided by the WebApi.Owin library:
        app.UseWebApi(httpConfiguration);
    }
}

}

Where the The WindsorDependencyResolver will be SOMETHING like this, based on another post you made?

public class WindsorDependencyResolver : IDependencyResolver { public IIocManager IocManager { get; set; } public override object GetService(Type serviceType) { return IocManager.IocContainer.Kernel.HasComponent(serviceType) ? IocManager.IocContainer.Resolve(serviceType) : base.GetService(serviceType); }

    public override IEnumerable<object> GetServices(Type serviceType)
    {
        return IocManager.IocContainer.Kernel.HasComponent(serviceType) ? IocManager.IocContainer.ResolveAll(serviceType).Cast<object>() : base.GetServices(serviceType);
    }
}

Maybe I need some more support, happy to discuss options. Best Regards, Alistair

Hi Guys, Love your work, I have been building DDD frameworks myself but you've done a really great job! My client needs to use WebAPI for WPF/Xamarin apps. So I wanted to use your DynamicApiControllerBuilder to create these services from the applications and then to just resolve them in c# code on the client WPF/Xamarin side.

So I need the WPF module to dependon the ReadyCareWebApiModule [DependsOn(typeof(ReadyCareDataModule), typeof(ReadyCareApplicationModule), typeof(ReadyCareWebApiModule))] public class ReadyCareWpfModule : AbpModule

Then it looks like I can use the AbpHttpControllerSelector. SelectController mehod to get the controller i.e This method public override HttpControllerDescriptor SelectController(HttpRequestMessage request)

Then I can use the ExecuteAsync on the HttpControllerDescriptor to execute an action on the controller?

Of course we would do appropriate caching as required.

Alternatively should I write the webapi methods by hand and just call the application methods in there, but thats what we don't want to have to do right.
