Advice when installing on an WCF website #4

Open kye opened 8 years ago

Great solution - working like a charm for our frontend MVC sites.

We'd really like to use the same solution on our WCF based backend website which do not host an MVC/webAPI components.

Could you provide any advice on whether we should rewrite the code to allow for WCF services? Would you accept a pull request? Is this even worth trying, or is existing code too integrated into MVC?

Hey @kye.. Sorry for the slow response - I've not had much time to dedicate to OSS for the past few months.

WCF services are a bit of a different beastie as far as hooking up routes is concerned but it shouldn't be too difficult. My initial thoughts would be to set up a WCF service with a custom service factory. It can all be done in code - no web.config nastiness required - so we should be able to hook it up with a similar-looking extension method to what we already have for the other integrations.

If you'd like to have a go, you're more than welcome to. If you're short on time, no stress - I can completely understand that :)
