Change WCF Service binding to https at runtime

问题

We have an application that is deployed to many clients, some of which use http others https. When setting up our application the web.config is automatically populated with the WCF endpoints, bindings, etc. We would like to change over the binding to https upon application startup - without modifying the .config file. Is this possible? For example our .config file looks like (this is a snippet):

  <service behaviorConfiguration="Figment.Services.Business.ObjectInfo.ObjectInfoServiceBehavior" name="Figment.Services.Business.ObjectInfo.ObjectInfoService">
    <endpoint address="" binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingNamespace="http://Figment.com/webservices/" contract="Figment.Business.Core.ObjectInfo.IObjectInfoService" />
    <endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
  </service>

From what I have read it is possible to have an http and https binding at the same time, but we do not want this - if it is https then force it over to use https.

The change should be done in c# on service startup and be permanent while the service is running.

I know it is an old question, but I have had the same problem and found no answer on the SO. As it took me a couple days of digging to solve the problem, I think it is worth posting it here.

You generally have 3 options here:

1) Configure your service host completely in code (ignoring *.config) as per here

2) Make a script to modify *.config or use other config as per here

3) Use both *.config and programmatic binding configuration

Option (3) is tricky as you have to modify your service host after it has been created but before it would be open (something like host.State == Created). This because modification of bindings of an already open host has no effect. More details here.

To get (3) work you have to use custom host factory. Sample markup:

<%@ ServiceHost 
    Language="C#" 
    Debug="true" 
    CodeBehind="MyService.svc.cs"
    Service="Namespace.MyService, MyService" 
    Factory="Namespace.MyWcfHostFactory, MyService"
%>

MyWcfHostFactory should inherit ServiceHostFactory and extend/override CreateServiceHost method. I am using DI framework (Autofac) which simplifies things a bit. So MyWcfHostFactory just inherits AutofacHostFactory. Startup code (called from either Global.asax Application_Start or static constructor of MyWcfHostFactory):

var builder = new ContainerBuilder();

// Register your service implementations.
builder.RegisterType< Namespace.MyService>();

// Set the dependency resolver.
var container = builder.Build();
AutofacHostFactory.Container = container;
AutofacHostFactory.HostConfigurationAction = (host => PerformHostConfiguration(host));

In PerformHostConfiguration you can overwrite or modify bindings. Code below takes 1st registered endpoint and replaces its binding with https one:

/// <summary> This is used as a delegate to perform wcf host configuration - set Behaviors, global error handlers, auth, etc </summary>
private static void PerformHostConfiguration(ServiceHostBase host) {
    var serviceEndpoint = host.Description.Endpoints.First();
    serviceEndpoint.Binding = new BasicHttpBinding {
        ReaderQuotas = {MaxArrayLength = int.MaxValue},
        MaxBufferSize = int.MaxValue,
        MaxReceivedMessageSize = int.MaxValue,
        Security = new BasicHttpSecurity {
            Mode = BasicHttpSecurityMode.Transport, //main setting for https
        },
    };
}
