我们在《服务器在管道中的“龙头”地位》中对ASP.NET Core默认提供的具有跨平台能力的KestrelServer进行了介绍,为了让读者朋友们对管道中的服务器具有更加深刻的认识,接下来我们采用实例演示的形式创建一个自定义的服务器。这个自定义的服务器直接利用HttpListener来完成针对请求的监听、接收和响应,我们将其命名为HttpListenerServer。在正式介绍HttpListenerServer的设计和实现之前,我们先来显示一下如何将它应用到 一个具体的Web应用中。我们依然采用最简单的Hello World应用来演示针对HttpListenerServer的应用,所以我们在Startup类的Configure方法中编写如下的程序直接响应一个“Hello World”字符串。[本文已经同步到《ASP.NET Core框架揭秘》之中]
1: public class Startup 2: { 3: public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app) 4: { 5: app.Run(async context => await context.Response.WriteAsync("Hello World!")); 6: } 7: }
在作为程序入口的Main方法中,我们直接创建一个WebHostBuilder对象并调用扩展方法UseHttpListener完成针对自定义HttpListenerServer的注册。我们接下来调用UseStartup方法注册上面定义的这个启动类型,然后调用Build方法创建一个WebHost对象,最后调用Run方法运行这个作为宿主的WebHost。
1: public class Program 2: { 3: public static void Main() 4: { 5: new WebHostBuilder() 6: .UseHttpListener() 7: .UseStartup<Startup>() 8: .Build() 9: .Run(); 10: } 11: } 12: 13: public static class WebHostBuilderExtensions 14: { 15: public static IWebHostBuilder UseHttpListener(this IWebHostBuilder builder) 16: { 17: builder.ConfigureServices(services => services.AddSingleton<IServer, HttpListenerServer>()); 18: return builder; 19: } 20: }
我们自定义的扩展方法UseHttpListener的逻辑很简单,它只是调用WebHostBuilder的ConfigureServices方法将我们自定义的HttpListenerServer类型以单例模式注册到指定的ServiceCollection上而已。我们直接运行这个程序并利用浏览器访问默认的监听地址(http://localhost:5000),服务端响应的“Hello World”字符串会按照如下图所示的形式显示在浏览器上。
接下来我们来介绍一下HttpListenerServer的大体涉及。除了HttpListenerServer这个实现了IServer的自定义Server类型之外,我们只定义了一个名为HttpListenerServerFeature的特性类型,图7所示的UML基本上体现了HttpListenerServer的总体设计。
如果我们利用HttpListener来监听请求,它会为接收到的每次请求创建一个属于自己的上下文,具体来说这是一个类型为HttpListenerContext对象。我们可以利用这个HttpListenerContext对象获取所有与请求相关的信息,针对请求的任何响应也都是利用它完成的。上面这个HttpListenerServerFeature实际上就是对这个作为原始上下文的HttpListenerContext对象的封装,或者说它是管道使用的DefaultHttpContext与这个原始上下文之间沟通的中介。
如下所示的代码片段展示了HttpListenerServerFeature类型的完整定义。简单起见,我们并没有实现上面提到过的所有特性接口,而只是选择性地实现了IHttpRequestFeature和IHttpResponseFeature这两个最为核心的特性接口。它的构造函数除了具有一个类型为HttpListenerContext的参数之外,还具有一个字符串的参数pathBase用来指定请求URL的基地址(对应IHttpRequestFeature的PathBase属性),我们利用它来计算请求URL的相对地址(对应IHttpRequestFeature的Path属性)。IHttpRequestFeature和IHttpResponseFeature中定义的属性都可以直接利用HttpListenerContext对应的成员来实现,这方面并没有什么特别之处。

接下来我们来看看HttpListenerServer的定义。如下面的代码片段所示,用来监听请求的HttpListener在构造函数中被创建,与此同时,我们会创建一个用于获取监听地址的ServerAddressesFeature对象并将其添加到属于自己的特性列表中。当HttpListenerServer随着Start方法的调用而被启动后,它将这个ServerAddressesFeature对象提取出来,然后利用它得到所有的地址并添加到HttpListener的Prefixes属性表示的监听地址列表中。接下来,HttpListener的Start方法被调用,并在一个无限循环中开启请求的监听与接收。
1: public class HttpListenerServer : IServer 2: { 3: private readonly HttpListener listener; 4: 5: public IFeatureCollection Features { get; } = new FeatureCollection(); 6: 7: public HttpListenerServer() 8: { 9: listener = new HttpListener(); 10: this.Features.Set<IServerAddressesFeature>(new ServerAddressesFeature()); 11: } 12: 13: public void Dispose() 14: { 15: listener.Stop(); 16: } 17: 18: public void Start<TContext>(IHttpApplication<TContext> application) 19: { 20: foreach (string address in this.Features.Get<IServerAddressesFeature>().Addresses) 21: { 22: listener.Prefixes.Add(address.TrimEnd('/') + "/"); 23: } 24: 25: listener.Start(); 26: while (true) 27: { 28: HttpListenerContext httpListenerContext = listener.GetContext(); 29: 30: string listenUrl = this.Features.Get<IServerAddressesFeature>().Addresses 31: .First(address => httpListenerContext.Request.Url.IsBaseOf(new Uri(address))); 32: string pathBase = new Uri(listenUrl).LocalPath.TrimEnd('/') ; 33: HttpListenerServerFeature feature = new HttpListenerServerFeature(httpListenerContext, pathBase); 34: 35: FeatureCollection features = new FeatureCollection(); 36: features.Set<IHttpRequestFeature>(feature); 37: features.Set<IHttpResponseFeature>(feature); 38: TContext context = application.CreateContext(features); 39: 40: application.ProcessRequestAsync(context).ContinueWith(task => 41: { 42: httpListenerContext.Response.Close(); 43: application.DisposeContext(context, task.Exception); 44: }); 45: } 46: } 47: }
HttpListener的GetContext方法以同步的方式监听请求,并利用接收到的请求创建返回的HttpListenerContext对象。我们利用它解析出当前请求的基地址,并进一步创建出描述当前原始上下文的HttpListenerServerFeature。接下来我们将这个对象分别采用特性接口IHttpRequestFeature和IHttpResponseFeature添加到创建的FeatureCollection对象中。然后我们将这个FeatureCollection作为参数调用HttpApplication的CreateContext创建出上下文对象,并将其作为参数调用HttpApplication的ProcessContext方法让注册的中间件来逐个地对请求进行处理。
