IpcServiceFramework

A .NET Core 3.1 based lightweight framework for efficient inter-process communication. Named pipeline and TCP support out-of-the-box, extensible with other protocols.

Forked from https://github.com/jacqueskang/IpcServiceFramework

NuGet packages

Name Purpose Status
WinCopies.IPCService.Client.NamedPipe Client SDK to consume IPC service over Named pipe NuGet version
WinCopies.IPCService.Hosting.NamedPipe Server SDK to run Named pipe IPC service endpoint NuGet version
WinCopies.IPCService.Extensions(.Windows) SDK to build single-instance applications NuGet version NuGet version

Usage

  1. Create an interface as service contract and package it in an assembly to be referenced by server and client applications, for example:

    public interface IInterProcessService
{
    string ReverseString(string input);
}

  2. Implement the service in server application, for example:

    class InterProcessService : IInterProcessService
{
    public string ReverseString(string input)
    {
        char[] charArray = input.ToCharArray();
        Array.Reverse(charArray);
        return new string(charArray);
    }
}

  3. Install the following NuGet packages in server application:

    > Install-Package Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting
> Install-Package WinCopies.IPCService.Hosting.NamedPipe

  4. Register the service implementation and configure IPC endpoint(s):

    class Program
{
    public static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        CreateHostBuilder(args).Build().Run();
    }

    public static IHostBuilder CreateHostBuilder(string[] args) =>
        Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
            .ConfigureServices(services =>
            {
                services.AddScoped<IInterProcessService, InterProcessService>();
            })
            .ConfigureIpcHost(builder =>
            {
                // configure IPC endpoints
                builder.AddNamedPipeEndpoint<IInterProcessService>(pipeName: "pipeinternal");
            })
            .ConfigureLogging(builder =>
            {
                // optionally configure logging
                builder.SetMinimumLevel(LogLevel.Information);
            });
}

  5. Install the following NuGet package in client application:

    > Install-Package WinCopies.IPCService.Client.NamedPipe

  6. Invoke the server

    // register IPC clients
ServiceProvider serviceProvider = new ServiceCollection()
    .AddNamedPipeIpcClient<IInterProcessService>("client1", pipeName: "pipeinternal")
    .BuildServiceProvider();

// resolve IPC client factory
IClientFactory<IInterProcessService> clientFactory = serviceProvider
    .GetRequiredService<IClientFactory<IInterProcessService>>();

// create client
IClient<IInterProcessService> client = clientFactory.CreateClient("client1");

string output = await client.InvokeAsync(x => x.ReverseString(input));
