1 year ago Theoretically the Electron wrapper should already return a free port - it's done with the following code:
public static int FreeTcpPort()
{
TcpListener tcpListener = new TcpListener(IPAddress.Loopback, 0);
tcpListener.Start();
int port = ((IPEndPoint) tcpListener.LocalEndpoint).Port;
tcpListener.Stop();
return port;
}What do you get when you run this local? Does it give you always 8001?
Passing the port should be possible already now. The electron wrapper uses this code to replace the ELECTRONPORT and ELECTRONWEBPORT. I'm passing the args to it so this should already work.
foreach (string str in args)
{
if (str.ToUpper().Contains("ELECTRONPORT"))
{
BridgeSettings.SocketPort = str.ToUpper().Replace("/ELECTRONPORT=", "");
BridgeConnector.Log("Use Electron Port: " + BridgeSettings.SocketPort);
}
else if (str.ToUpper().Contains("ELECTRONWEBPORT"))
BridgeSettings.WebPort = str.ToUpper().Replace("/ELECTRONWEBPORT=", "");
}According to the above code I guess you need to pass it with slash so: '/ELECTRONWEBPORT' and '/ELECTRONPORT'.
Please test and if still doesn't work we will troubleshoot further.

Currently the application starts up and tries to open on port 8001. On my machine this port is already in use by another application which I had to kill in order to use CrossBus.
Besides that CrossBus looks very promising! It's fast, easy on the eyes and easy to use.
