If you have any issues or feedback, please file an issue here in Github. We'd love to have you help by contributing code for new features, optimization to the existing codebase, ideas for future releases, or fixes!

New in v1.0.x

  • Initial release

Default Configuration

By default, Switchboard server will listen on port 8000 and is not configured with API endpoints or origin servers (see below for an example). If you point your browser to http://localhost:8000/ you will see a default page indicating that the node is operational. HEAD requests to this URL will also return a 200/OK.

Example (Integrated)

Refer to the Test project for a working example with one API endpoint and two origin servers.

using Switchboard.Core;

// initialize settings
SwitchboardSettings settings = new SwitchboardSettings();

// add API endpoints
settings.Endpoints.Add(new ApiEndpoint
{
    Identifier = "my-api-endpoint",
    Name = "My API endpoint",
    LoadBalancing = LoadBalancingMode.RoundRobin,
    ParameterizedUrls = new Dictionary<string, List<string>>
    {
        { "GET", new List<string> { "/my-api" } }
    },
    OriginServers = new List<string>
    {
        "my-origin-server"
    }
});

// add origin servers
settings.Origins.Add(new OriginServer
{
    Identifier = "my-origin-server",
    Name = "My origin server",
    Hostname = "localhost",
    Port = 8001,
    Ssl = false
});

// start Switchboard
using (SwitchboardDaemon sb = new SwitchboardDaemon(settings))
{
    ...
}

Example (Standalone)

$ cd /path/to/src-directory
$ dotnet build
$ cd Switchboard.Server/bin/Debug/net8.0
$ dotnet Switchboard.Server.dll
