Yllibed Http Server

A versatile, lightweight HTTP server for .NET applications. Self-contained with no dependencies on ASP.NET or other frameworks.

Quick Start

// Recommended: Use dynamic port assignment
var server = new Server(); // Port 0 by default - no conflicts!
server.RegisterHandler(new StaticHandler("/", "text/plain", "Hello, world!"));
var (uri4, uri6) = server.Start();
Console.WriteLine($"Server running at: {uri4}");

Or with a fixed port:

var server = new Server(8080);
server.RegisterHandler(new StaticHandler("/", "text/plain", "Hello, world!"));
var (uri4, uri6) = server.Start();

Common Use Cases

  • OAuth2 return URL endpoints
  • Remote diagnostics/monitoring
  • IoT device configuration interfaces
  • Simple REST API endpoints

Configuration

Dynamic Port Assignment (Recommended): Using port 0 automatically assigns an available port, preventing conflicts—perfect for testing, microservices, and team development.

// ✅ Recommended approach
var server = new Server(); // Dynamic port
var (uri4, uri6) = server.Start();
var actualPort = new Uri(uri4).Port; // Get the assigned port

For advanced configuration, use ServerOptions:

var serverOptions = new ServerOptions
{
    Port = 0, // Dynamic port (recommended)
    Hostname4 = "127.0.0.1",
    Hostname6 = "::1",
    BindAddress4 = IPAddress.Any // Listen on all interfaces
};
var server = new Server(serverOptions);

Dependency Injection

Works with Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection:

// Option 1: Extension method (cleanest) - uses dynamic ports by default
services.AddYllibedHttpServer(); // Zero configuration, no conflicts!

// Or configure explicitly:
services.AddYllibedHttpServer(opts =>
{
    opts.Port = 0; // Dynamic port (recommended)
    opts.Hostname4 = "127.0.0.1";
});

// Option 2: Configure + AddSingleton
services.Configure<ServerOptions>(opts => { opts.Port = 0; });
services.AddSingleton<Server>(); // Auto-selects IOptions<> constructor

Limitations

  • HTTP/1.1 only (no HTTP/2+ or WebSockets)
  • No HTTPS/TLS support
  • Designed for small-scale applications
