Install this library

There are multiple ways to build this library

Use vcpkg and install the library with vcpkg install microsoft-signalr
Build from command line
Build in Visual Studio (must have the "Desktop Development with C++" workload) by selecting the "Open a local folder" option and selecting the repository root folder

Command line build

Below are instructions to build on different OS's. You can also use the following options to customize the build:

Command line	Description	Default value
-DBUILD_SAMPLES	Build the included sample project	false
-DBUILD_TESTING	Builds the test project	true
-DUSE_CPPRESTSDK	Includes the CppRestSDK (default http stack) (requires cpprestsdk to be installed)	false
-DUSE_MSGPACK	Adds an option to use the MessagePack Hub Protocol (requires msgpack-c to be installed)	false
-DINCLUDE_JSONCPP	Builds jsoncpp source code as part of the output binary	true
-DWERROR	Enables warnings as errors	true
-DWALL	Enables all warnings	true
-DINJECT_HEADER_AFTER_STDAFX=`<header path>`	Adds the provided header to the library compilation in stdafx.cpp, intended to allow "new" and "delete" to be replaced.	`<none>`

Build on Windows

PS> git submodule update --init
PS> .\submodules\vcpkg\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat
PS> .\submodules\vcpkg\vcpkg.exe install cpprestsdk:x64-windows
PS> mkdir build.release
PS> cd build.release
PS> cmake .. -A x64 -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="..\submodules\vcpkg\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DUSE_CPPRESTSDK=true
PS> cmake --build . --config Release

Output will be in build.release\bin\Release\

Build on Mac

$ git submodule update --init
$ brew install gcc6
$ ./submodules/vcpkg/bootstrap-vcpkg.sh

$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../submodules/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DUSE_CPPRESTSDK=true
$ cmake --build . --config Release

Output will be in build.release/bin/

Build on Linux

$ git submodule update --init
$ ./submodules/vcpkg/bootstrap-vcpkg.sh
$ ./submodules/vcpkg/vcpkg install cpprestsdk boost-system boost-chrono boost-thread
$ mkdir build.release
$ cd build.release
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../submodules/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DUSE_CPPRESTSDK=true

Output will be in build.release/bin/

Example usage

#include <iostream>
#include <future>
#include "signalrclient/hub_connection.h"
#include "signalrclient/hub_connection_builder.h"
#include "signalrclient/signalr_value.h"

std::promise<void> start_task;
signalr::hub_connection connection = signalr::hub_connection_builder::create("http://localhost:5000/hub").build();

connection.on("Echo", [](const std::vector<signalr::value>& m)
{
    std::cout << m[0].as_string() << std::endl;
});

connection.start([&start_task](std::exception_ptr exception) {
    start_task.set_value();
});

start_task.get_future().get();

std::promise<void> send_task;
std::vector<signalr::value> args { "Hello world" };
connection.invoke("Echo", args, [&send_task](const signalr::value& value, std::exception_ptr exception) {
    send_task.set_value();
});

send_task.get_future().get();

std::promise<void> stop_task;
connection.stop([&stop_task](std::exception_ptr exception) {
    stop_task.set_value();
});

stop_task.get_future().get();
