[mattkol]

Would be nice, as a feedback and an an encouragement to new users to know about apps built with Chromely or tools or project using Chromely.

Please share your adventures!

Thanks for all who have contributed via issues raised, PR, chats and private emails!

I was wondering what the deployment filesize is on a basic hello world chromely app. It is by far the key reason I would give it a chance over electron

@mattkol I made a mod tool for BattleTech PC game with Chromely. I used it to hook into the game dlls in the C# side to allow me to reuse their deserialisation system for the in-game dialogue/conversation system. Then built a React based dialogue editor on the 'frontend' side.

The community love it. Thank you for making a great base for me to start on. You can see the project here: https://github.com/CWolfs/ConverseTek

his 64bit windows app zipped is 66mb, which is not too far from what I would get from electron-builder

[CWolfs]

@blurymind open a new issue for this question - this is the wrong place for it.

@CWolfs thanks for sharing your project "ConverseTek". I will create a separate page for the projects in the wiki soon.

@CWolfs I created a page for Chromely apps - https://github.com/chromelyapps/Chromely/wiki/A-List-of-Apps-Built-with-Chromely. Please see if you can add a more formalized summary of "ConverseTek". You can put it here or update the page. Thanks.

I cannot access to the list of app buit with chromely, Command Routes, or Enabling DevTools... I'm redirected to the wiki main page

[CWolfs]

I get the the same for the main links but if you click on the links to the same pages in the navigation / pages section then it works for me.

[MaximeTasset]

Ok, I see where is the problem. There is errors in the links in the home page:

• Enabling DevTools links to https://github.com/chromelyapps/Chromely/wiki/debugging-devtools instead of https://github.com/chromelyapps/Chromely/wiki/enabling-devtools
• Command Routes links to https://github.com/chromelyapps/Chromely/wiki/networking-command-routes instead of https://github.com/chromelyapps/Chromely/wiki/command-routes

[mattkol]

@MaximeTasset thanks for pointing that out. @Fiahblade or any of us will clean that up later.

[Fiahblade]

Done.

Chromely.Mvc

Chromely.Mvc builds on top of Chromely.

• Use MVC's convention-based approach to writing and wiring up controllers.
• Conventional routing using attributes HttpGet, HttpPost, etc.
• Constructor and property injection on controller classes.
• Return Task<T> from your action methods.
• Controller classes are transient services - created for each request.
• Use .NET Core's built-in IServiceCollection for dependency injection.
• Model binding, so you can create your action methods like this:

public IEnumerable<WeatherData> GetWeatherForecast(DateTime date, string location)

instead of this:

public ChromelyResponse GetWeatherForecast(ChromelyRequest request)

Comparison

Chromely

Chromely requires you to registers routes to specific methods. The method argument and return value must be ChromelyRequest and ChromelyReponse.. This requires a lot of bolierplate code, and requires you to parse the request yourself.

[ControllerProperty(Name = "WeatherController", Route = "weathercontroller")]
public class WeatherController : ChromelyController
{
    public WeatherController(){
            this.RegisterGetRequest("/weathercontroller/movies", this.GetMovies);
    }

    public ChromelyReponse GetWeatherForecast(ChromelyRequest request)
    {
        var parametersJsom = request.Parameters.EnsureJson();
        // parse json into arguments..
        ...         
        var weatherForecast = new List<WeatherData>();
        ... 
        ChromelyResponse response = new ChromelyResponse();
        response.Data = weatherForecast; 
        return response;
    }
}

Chromely.Mvc

public class WeatherController : Controller
{
    [HttpGet]
    public IEnumerable<WeatherData> GetWeatherForecast(DateTime date, string location)
    {
        var weatherForecast = new List<WeatherData>();
        ... 
        return weatherForecast;
    }
}

Hi Guys,

@mattkol I have been working on a new project called Light Query Profiler which uses Chromely. Light Query Profiler is a simple and cross platform query profiler for SQL Server and Azure SQL Database.
