SignalR - 从服务器端代码调用Hub类方法（存在于单独的MVC项目中）

Question

I have read some SignalR tutorials. In order to implement SignalR in my existing Asp.Net solution application I did following:

I have created a separate MVC 4 project and created a Hub class along with some methods, so that it can be called from any other MVC project/Client present in the existing solution, means I would just like to use it as a service.

But now I have two questions:

1. How can I call it from some other MVC project. Will it be the same way as mentioned in the tutorials, example like adding necessary script files in head of my .cshtml page and using js script like following:

   var hub = $.connection.; //and then

   hub.server.send("some args");

2. I want to call Hub code also directly from the Server side code. Did it before when I was using SuperSocket. Would like to do same approach using SignalR. How can I do it ?

If you answer, then kindly please give some code sample(s). Many Thanks.

Answer 1

There is sample code for calling client methods from outside the Hub class (but within the application) here . Basically, you use the ConnectionManager to call a hub's clients.

var context = GlobalHost.ConnectionManager.GetHubContext<MyHub>();
context.Clients.All.myClientMethod(myValue);

To call this from outside your application, I'd use some sort of exposed method or service and wrap the above code.
