Here I am trying to read my service endpoint address by name from web.config
ClientSection clientSection = (ClientSection)ConfigurationManager.GetSection("system.serviceModel/client");
var el = clientSection.Endpoints("SecService"); // I don't want to use index here as more endpoints may get added and its order may change
string addr = el.Address.ToString();
Is there a way I can read end point address based on name?
Here is my web.config
file
<system.serviceModel>
<client>
<endpoint address="https://....................../FirstService.svc" binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="1ServiceBinding" contract="abc.firstContractName" behaviorConfiguration="FirstServiceBehavior" name="FirstService" />
<endpoint address="https://....................../SecService.svc" binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="2ServiceBinding" contract="abc.secContractName" behaviorConfiguration="SecServiceBehavior" name="SecService" />
<endpoint address="https://....................../ThirdService.svc" binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="3ServiceBinding" contract="abc.3rdContractName" behaviorConfiguration="ThirdServiceBehavior" name="ThirdService" />
</client>
</system.serviceModel>
This will work clientSection.Endpoints[0];
, but I am looking for a way to retrieve by name.
I.e. something like clientSection.Endpoints["SecService"]
, but it's not working.
The endpoint with the name "http" is used as the default endpoint for the service application.
system. serviceModel is a root element of all WCF configuration elements. The configuration information for a service is contained within a system.
The endpoint address is represented by the EndpointAddress class, which contains a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that represents the address of the service, an Identity, which represents the security identity of the service, and a collection of optional Headers.
This is how I did it using Linq and C# 6.
First get the client section:
var client = ConfigurationManager.GetSection("system.serviceModel/client") as ClientSection;
Then get the endpoint that's equal to endpointName:
var qasEndpoint = client.Endpoints.Cast<ChannelEndpointElement>()
.SingleOrDefault(endpoint => endpoint.Name == endpointName);
Then get the url from the endpoint:
var endpointUrl = qasEndpoint?.Address.AbsoluteUri;
You can also get the endpoint name from the endpoint interface by using:
var endpointName = typeof (EndpointInterface).ToString();
I guess you have to actually iterate through the endpoints:
string address;
for (int i = 0; i < clientSection.Endpoints.Count; i++)
{
if (clientSection.Endpoints[i].Name == "SecService")
address = clientSection.Endpoints[i].Address.ToString();
}
Well, each client-side endpoint has a name - just instantiate your client proxy using that name:
ThirdServiceClient client = new ThirdServiceClient("ThirdService");
Doing this will read the right information from the config file automatically.
