Write C# apps with a text editor, nuget and the power of Rosyln!
Note: Rosyln is a pre-release CTP and currently an unsupported technology. As such there may be changes in Roslyn itself that could impact this project. Please bear that in mind when using scriptcs
- More on why I developed this [here] (http://codebetter.com/glennblock/2013/02/28/scriptcs-living-on-the-edge-in-c-without-a-project-on-the-wings-of-roslyn-and-nuget/)
- Check out our goals and rodmap [here] (https://github.com/scriptcs/scriptcs/wiki/Project-goals-and-roadmap)
- Install the [nuget cmdline bootstrapper] (http://nuget.codeplex.com/releases/view/58939)
- Build the project and put scriptcs.exe in your path.
- Open a cmd prompt as admin
- Create a directory "c:\scriptcs_hello" and change to it.
- run "nuget install Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.SelfHost -o Packages"
- create a server.csx with your favorite editor. Paste the text below into the file and save.
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Web.Http;
using System.Web.Http.SelfHost;
var address = "http://localhost:8080";
var conf = new HttpSelfHostConfiguration(new Uri(address));
conf.Routes.MapHttpRoute(name: "DefaultApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",
defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
);
var server = new HttpSelfHostServer(conf);
server.OpenAsync().Wait();
Console.WriteLine("Listening...");
Console.ReadKey();- run "scriptcs server.csx"
This will launch a web api host.
scriptcs relies on Rosyln for loading loose C# script files. It will automatically discover nuget packages local to the app and load the binaries.
