使用Topshelf创建Windows 服务简要的介绍了创建Windows服务的另一种方法,老外的一篇文章Create a .NET Windows Service in 5 steps with Topshelf通过5个步骤详细的介绍使用使用Topshelf创建Windows 服务。Topshelf是一个开源的跨平台的宿主服务框架,支持Windows和Mono,只需要几行代码就可以构建一个很方便使用的服务宿主。
1、Topshelf的代码托管在http://topshelf-project.com/,可以在这里下载到最新的代码。
2、使用Visual Studio创建一个控制台应用程序引用程序集TopShelf.dll 合log4net.dll 。
3、创建一个简单的服务类,里面包含两个方法Start和Stop,这个服务只是演示代码,所以我们每隔5秒输出一个日志。
using System.Timers;
using log4net;
namespace SampleWindowsService
{
public class SampleService
{
private Timer _timer = null;
readonly ILog _log = LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(SampleService));
public SampleService()
{
double interval = 5000;
_timer = new Timer(interval);
_timer.Elapsed += new ElapsedEventHandler(OnTick);
}
protected virtual void OnTick(object sender, ElapsedEventArgs e)
{
_log.Debug("Tick:" + DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString());
}
public void Start()
{
_log.Info("SampleService is Started");
_timer.AutoReset = true;
_timer.Enabled = true;
_timer.Start();
}
public void Stop()
{
_log.Info("SampleService is Stopped");
_timer.AutoReset = false;
_timer.Enabled = false;
}
}
}
using log4net.Config;
using Topshelf;
namespace SampleWindowsService
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
XmlConfigurator.ConfigureAndWatch(
new FileInfo(".\\log4net.config"));
var host = HostFactory.New(x =>
{
x.EnableDashboard();
x.Service<SampleService>(s =>
{
s.SetServiceName("SampleService");
s.ConstructUsing(name => new SampleService());
s.WhenStarted(tc =>
{
XmlConfigurator.ConfigureAndWatch(
new FileInfo(".\\log4net.config"));
tc.Start();
});
s.WhenStopped(tc => tc.Stop());
});
x.RunAsLocalSystem();
x.SetDescription("SampleService Description");
x.SetDisplayName("SampleService");
x.SetServiceName("SampleService");
});
host.Run();
}
}
}
