使用SignalR实现asp.net服务器端的推送(Server Push)
我们在开发Web应用时，有时候需要将Server端的的信息Push到客户端。常见的一个场景就是微博应用，需要将一个用户的收听实时消息推送到Web端，也就是用户的更新用户的Timeline。
对此通用的解决方案就是Long Polling——支持XMLHttpRequest的浏览器都可以使用，使得其适用范围广。对此需要注意的就是Server端的处理能力，最好能用类似Node.js的Non-Block式的并发。GitHub有个项目SignalR使得的在asp.net中实现Server Side的Push变得简单。为了使用SignalR，我们需要在NuGet中搜索SignalR并安装。
安装完成后我们便可以使用SignalR了，我们先看Client端的实现：

<div>
<span>MicroBlog ID:</span><input type="text" id="uid" name="uid" value=" " />
<input type="button" name="refreshTimeline" id="refreshTimeline" value="Refresh Timeline" />
</div>
<ul id="messages"></ul>
</div>
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
// Proxy created on the fly
var conn = $.connection.microBlogServer;
// Declare a function so the server can invoke it
conn.newMessage = function (msg) {
$('#messages').append('<li>' + msg + '</li>');
};
conn.notify = function(notice) {
$('#messages').append('<li>[system notice]:\t' + notice + '</li>');
}
// Start the connection
$.connection.hub.start();
//call server side refresh when all things ready
$("#refreshTimeline").click(function() {
conn.refreshTimeline($('#uid').val());
});
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
服务器端也十分简单：
public class MicroBlogServer:Hub, IDisconnect
{
private static Dictionary<string, bool> cancelQueue = new Dictionary<string, bool>();
public void RefreshTimeline(string uid)
{
cancelQueue.Add(this.Context.ConnectionId, false);
var msgTask = new Task(new Action<object>(PushUserMessage), uid);
msgTask.Start();
}
private void PushUserMessage(object uid)
{
while (true)
{
if (cancelQueue[this.Context.ConnectionId])
{
cancelQueue.Remove(this.Context.ConnectionId);
return;
}
string msg = GetNewMessage(uid.ToString());
Caller.newMessage(msg); //push new message to client
string notice = GetSystemNotification();
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(notice))
Clients.notify(notice);
}
}
public System.Threading.Tasks.Task Disconnect()
{
if (cancelQueue.Keys.Contains(this.Context.ConnectionId))
{
cancelQueue[this.Context.ConnectionId] = true;
}
return null;
}
#region User Message Generator
private string GetNewMessage(string uid)
{
Thread.Sleep(3000);
return string.Format("message from xxx to {0} ({1})", uid, DateTime.Now);
}
private string GetSystemNotification()
{
if (new Random().Next(6) >= 5)
return "system will shutdown for maintenance";
else
return string.Empty;
}
#endregion
}
