OpenRasta in OWIN

161 views Asked by At

I want to use OpenRasta in a Windows Service to accept REST calls and know it can be self-hosted by HttpListenerHost. OWIN seems to be the latest and greatest self-hosted web server. Is there an advantage to using OWIN over HttpListenerHost? In terms of performance, flexibility, etc? Is it even possible to use OpenRasta with OWIN?

Blake, we recently released a Owin middleware package on NuGet you can try out.

Some more details here http://tech.just-eat.com/2014/10/07/opensourced-openrasta-middleware/

In addition to that I'm working on a vNext version as the IAppBuilder has now changed to IApplicationBuilder so need some tweaks.

Just adding to Thomas' answer, since 2.6 the Owin support started by Just-Eat has been moved to the main repository, and we have packages specifically targetting Katana and Mvc Core. A preview 3 will be released soon, but CI packages are of course available. More details are available at https://github.com/openrasta/openrasta-core
