Riassunto

Use SignalR to create realtime, bidirectional, and asynchronous applications based on standard web technologies

About This Book

• Build high performance real-time web applications
• Broadcast messages from the server to many clients simultaneously
• Implement complex and reactive architectures

Who This Book Is For

Different levels of developers will find this book useful. Beginners will be able to learn all the fundamental concepts of SignalR, quickly becoming productive in a difficult arena. Experienced programmers will find in this book a handy and useful collection of ready-made solutions to common use cases, which they will be able to enhance as needed. Developers can also use the book as a quick reference to the most important SignalR features. No previous practical experience either with SignalR or with real-time communication in general is required.

What You Will Learn

• Teach you how to build SignalR servers
• Illustrate SignalR clients built with both the JavaScript and the .NET client libraries
• Demonstrate both the Hubs API and the Persistent Connection API
• Demystify the lifetime of a connection
• Explain how to authorize requests
• Scale up and scale out your SignalR applications
• Enable you to handle errors efficiently
• Extend SignalR with custom services
• Solve complex real-time scenarios with the help of advanced, ready-made examples

In Detail

SignalR is a recent addition to ASP.NET, which allows you to add real-time functionalities to your applications. SignalR enables bidirectional communication between client and server over HTTP, transparently, and ensures you're always provided with the experience of a persistent connection.

SignalR Real-time Application Cookbook is a practical, hands-on guide that provides a number of clear step-by-step recipes that will gradually enable you to add SignalR as an innovative, effective, and useful item in your toolbox. This book will move from simple examples on to complex use cases, going through a comprehensive overview of the library. Other than helping out with the common tasks, at the end of the book you will find a set of ready-made solutions for more complex scenarios.

L'autore

Roberto Vespa

Roberto Vespa has been passionate about programming computers since he was at high school, and he always wanted to do that for a living. He has a degree in Electronic Engineering obtained in Italy, and has been working in the Information Technology industry since 1995, consulting on many different projects and for several customers. He is a software developer and architect with strong experience on the Windows platform, and in particular on the .NET Framework since Version 1.0, and on web technologies. He has always been working across a broad spectrum of responsibilities from distributed applications to complex user interfaces, from architecture and designing solutions to debugging server and client code, and from native Windows clients to web user interfaces. He loves to learn, share, and communicate about technology. He wrote technical articles for an Italian magazine in the past, and now puts his effort into looking at the latest advances in programming or in contributing to open source projects such as ElmahR, a realtime error monitoring web dashboard built on top of SignalR. You can find out more about it at http://elmahr.apphb.com/. Since 2011, he has been working in Switzerland where he lives with his wife, Cecilia, and their cats.
