SignalR and MVC bundle

I'm trying to use SignalR with MVC bundle, but having problem finding out how to include the /signalr/hubs script into the bundle. For now I have to insert the path in between jquery.signalR and my code. That will result in three javascript file requests.

Is there any way to include /signalr/hubs into my mvc bundle?

回答1:

The default /signalr/hubs script is generated dynamically by the runtime on the first request and then cached.

You can use hubify.exe (see http://weblogs.asp.net/davidfowler/archive/2012/06/10/signalr-0-5-1-released.aspx for details) to pre-generate the file yourself, so you can add it into the MVC bundle.

回答2:

A bit late, but here is my contribution:
Create a javascript file with the following contents:

(function ($) {
    $.ajax({
        url: "/signalr/hubs",
        dataType: "script",
        async: false
    });
}(jQuery));

Then add the file to the bundles collection.
This will load the "/signalr/hubs" code for you.

I know this is an old thread but I would like to add the following for SignalR 2.x. I really wanted to bundle the proxy using SquishIt and by trial and error I managed to come up with the following:

using Microsoft.AspNet.SignalR
using Microsoft.AspNet.SignalR.Hubs

var resolver = new DefaultHubManager(new DefaultDependencyResolver());
var proxy = new DefaultJavaScriptProxyGenerator(resolver, new NullJavaScriptMinifier());
string iCanHazScriptNao = proxy.GenerateProxy("/signalr");

From asp.net, using the SignalR.Utils NuGet package, I found that I needed to be in the directory with the DLL that has the hub in it:

(assuming you have a standard solution structure and are using 2.2.0 of SignalR.Utils)

cd C:\YourSolution\YourProjectWithTheHub\bin\Debug
..\..\..\packages\Microsoft.AspNet.SignalR.Utils.2.2.0\tools\signalr.exe ghp

After running the tool, there will be a server.js file in the directory you ran it from (in this case, Debug).

(Note: I couldn't get it to work when specifying the path with the /p flag, and for some reason even when it does work, it creates a temp directory with the signalr.exe file in it)

I used @KTW response mentioned on this Thread and here is the complete change

BundleConfig

SomePartialView.cshtml Instead of writing below in above partial view

@using Localization
@using Newtonsoft.Json
@model NameSpace.ViewModels.FilterVM

@{
    ViewBag.Title = Strings.Filter;
}

@using (Html.BeginForm())
{
    <div class="large-12 columns">
        ---SOME CODE HERE 
    </div>

}

@section scripts
{
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
    var jsData = @Html.Raw(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(Model));
</script>
<script src="~/Scripts/jquery.signalR-2.2.2.min.js"></script>
<script src="~/signalr/hubs"></script>
<script src="~/Scripts/Views/Search/SignalRFunctions.js"></script>
}

This changed to

 @using Localization
    @using Newtonsoft.Json
    @model NameSpace.ViewModels.FilterVM

    @{
        ViewBag.Title = Strings.Filter;
    }

    @using (Html.BeginForm())
    {
        <div class="large-12 columns">
            ---SOME CODE HERE 
        </div>

    }

    @section scripts
    {
    <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
        var jsData = @Html.Raw(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(Model));
    </script>
    @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/SignalRScripts")
    }

Notice

@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/SignalRScripts")

in partial view above.Without @KTW file above(ajax request to /signalr/hubs)

var usersHub = $.connection.currentUsersHub;

was always coming as null.
