Pass a parameter to OWIN host

Question

I\'m self-hosting ASP.NET Web API and SignalR using OWIN. I start the server (on a console app) with this code:

using (WebApplication.Start(url))
         


        

Answer 1

You can use the WebApp.Start Method (String, Action) overload.

Example:

using (WebApplication.Start(url, appBuilder => new Startup(myObject).Configuration(appBuilder)))
{
    Console.WriteLine("Running...");
    Console.ReadLine();
}
