# MagicOnion
   [](https://github.com/Cysharp/MagicOnion/releases)
Unified Realtime/API framework for .NET platform and Unity.
[📖 Table of contents](#-table-of-contents)
## About MagicOnion
MagicOnion is a modern RPC framework for .NET platform that provides bi-directional real-time communications such as [SignalR](https://github.com/aspnet/AspNetCore/tree/master/src/SignalR) and [Socket.io](https://socket.io/) and RPC mechanisms such as WCF and web-based APIs.
This framework is based on [gRPC](https://grpc.io/), which is a fast and compact binary network transport for HTTP/2. However, unlike plain gRPC, it treats C# interfaces as a protocol schema, enabling seamless code sharing between C# projects without `.proto` (Protocol Buffers IDL).
> Interfaces are schemas and provide API services, just like the plain C# code
> Using the StreamingHub real-time communication service, the server can broadcast data to multiple clients
MagicOnion can be adopted or replaced in the following use cases:
- RPC services such as gRPC, used by Microservices, and WCF, commonly used by WinForms/WPF
- API services such as ASP.NET Core MVC targeting Unity, Xamarin, and Windows clients
- Bi-directional real-time communication such as Socket.io, SignalR, Photon and UNet
MagicOnion uses [MessagePack for C#](https://github.com/neuecc/MessagePack-CSharp) to serialize call arguments and return values. NET primitives and other complex types that can be serialized into MessagePack objects. See MessagePack for C# for details about serialization.
## Requirements
MagicOnion server requires .NET 6.0+.
MagicOnion client supports a wide range of platforms, including .NET Framework 4.6.1 to .NET 7 as well as Unity.
- Server-side (MagicOnion.Server)
- .NET 6.0+
- Client-side (MagicOnion.Client)
- .NET 6+
- .NET Standard 2.1, 2.0
- Unity 2021.3 (LTS) or newer
## Quick Start
### Server-side project
#### Setup a project for MagicOnion
Start from minimal API(details: [Tutorial: Create a minimal web API with ASP.NET Core](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/tutorials/min-web-api)) so create **ASP.NET Core Empty** template and Add NuGet package `Grpc.AspNetCore` and `MagicOnion.Server` to your project. If you are using the .NET CLI tools to add it, you can run the following command.
```bash
dotnet add package Grpc.AspNetCore
dotnet add package MagicOnion.Server
```
Open `Program.cs` and add some configuration to Services and App.
```csharp
using MagicOnion;
using MagicOnion.Server;
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
builder.Services.AddGrpc(); // Add this line(Grpc.AspNetCore)
builder.Services.AddMagicOnion(); // Add this line(MagicOnion.Server)
var app = builder.Build();
app.MapMagicOnionService(); // Add this line
app.Run();
```
Now you are ready to use MagicOnion on your server project.
#### Implements a service on MagicOnion
MagicOnion provides a Web API-like RPC service and a StreamingHub for real-time communication. This section implements a Web API-like RPC service.
Add an `IMyFirstService` interface to be shared between the server and the client (namespace should match the project).
```csharp
using System;
using MagicOnion;
namespace MyApp.Shared
{
// Defines .NET interface as a Server/Client IDL.
// The interface is shared between server and client.
public interface IMyFirstService : IService
{
// The return type must be `UnaryResult` or `UnaryResult`.
UnaryResult SumAsync(int x, int y);
}
}
```
Add a class that implements the interface `IMyFirstService`. The client calls this class.
```csharp
using MagicOnion;
using MagicOnion.Server;
using MyApp.Shared;
namespace MyApp.Services;
// Implements RPC service in the server project.
// The implementation class must inherit `ServiceBase` and `IMyFirstService`
public class MyFirstService : ServiceBase, IMyFirstService
{
// `UnaryResult` allows the method to be treated as `async` method.
public async UnaryResult SumAsync(int x, int y)
{
Console.WriteLine($"Received:{x}, {y}");
return x + y;
}
}
```
The service is now defined and implemented. That's it.
Now you can start MagicOnion server as you would a ASP.NET Core project using the F5 key or the `dotnet run` command.
### Client-side: Call the service on MagicOnion
> **NOTE:** If you want to use MagicOnion client with Unity clients, see also [Support for Unity client](#support-for-unity-client) section.
Create a **Console application** project and add NuGet package `MagicOnion.Client` to the project.
Share `IMyFirstService` interface with the client. Share the interface definition in some way, such as file links, shared libraries, or copy and paste.
In the client code, Create `MagicOnionClient` client proxy on the shared interface and calls the service transparently.
```csharp
using Grpc.Net.Client;
using MagicOnion.Client;
using MyApp.Shared;
// Connect to the server using gRPC channel.
var channel = GrpcChannel.ForAddress("https://localhost:5001");
// NOTE: If your project targets non-.NET Standard 2.1, use `Grpc.Core.Channel` class instead.
// var channel = new Channel("localhost", 5001, new SslCredentials());
// Create a proxy to call the server transparently.
var client = MagicOnionClient.Create(channel);
// Call the server-side method using the proxy.
var result = await client.SumAsync(123, 456);
Console.WriteLine($"Result: {result}");
```
## Installation
MagicOnion is available in four NuGet packages. Please install any of the packages as needed.
> **NOTE:** If you want to use MagicOnion client with Unity clients, see also [Support for Unity client](#support-for-unity-client) section.
The package `MagicOnion.Server` to implement the server. You need to install this package to implement services on your server.
```bash
dotnet add package MagicOnion.Server
```
The package `MagicOnion.Client` to implement the client. To implement the client such as as WPF and Xamarin, you need to install this package.
```bash
dotnet add package MagicOnion.Client
```
The package `MagicOnion.Abstractions` provides interfaces and attributes commonly used by servers and clients. To create a class library project which is shared between the servers and the clients, you need to install this package.
```bash
dotnet add package MagicOnion.Abstractions
```
The package `MagicOnion` is meta package to implements the role of both server and client.
To implement server-to-server communication such as Microservices, that can be both a server and a client, we recommend to install this package.
```bash
dotnet add package MagicOnion
```

## Fundamentals
### Service
A service is a mechanism that provides a request/response API in the style of RPC or Web-API, and is implemented as a Unary call to gRPC.
A service can be defined as a C# interface to benefit from the type. This means that it can be observed as a request over HTTP/2.
#### Service definition (Shared library)
```csharp
using System;
using MagicOnion;
namespace MyApp.Shared
{
// Defines .NET interface as a Server/Client IDL.
// The interface is shared between server and client.
public interface IMyFirstService : IService
{
// The return type must be `UnaryResult` or `UnaryResult`.
UnaryResult SumAsync(int x, int y);
// `UnaryResult` does not have a return value like `Task`, `ValueTask`, or `void`.
UnaryResult DoWorkAsync();
}
}
```
#### Service implementation (Server-side)
```csharp
using System;
using MagicOnion;
using MagicOnion.Server;
using MyApp.Shared;
namespace MyApp.Services;
// Implements RPC service in the server project.
// The implementation class must inherit `ServiceBase` and `IMyFirstService`
public class MyFirstService : ServiceBase, IMyFirstService
{
// `UnaryResult` allows the method to be treated as `async` method.
public async UnaryResult SumAsync(int x, int y)
{
Console.WriteLine($"Received:{x}, {y}");
return x + y;
}
public async UnaryResult DoWorkAsync()
{
// Something to do ...
}
}
```
In MagicOnion, unlike gRPC in general, the body of the request is serialized by MessagePack for sending and receiving.
### StreamingHub
StreamingHub is a fully-typed realtime server <--> client communication framework.
This sample is for Unity(use Vector3, GameObject, etc) but StreamingHub supports .NET Core, too.
```csharp
// Server -> Client definition
public interface IGamingHubReceiver
{
// The method must have a return type of `void` and can have up to 15 parameters of any type.
void OnJoin(Player player);
void OnLeave(Player player);
void OnMove(Player player);
}
// Client -> Server definition
// implements `IStreamingHub` and share this type between server and client.
public interface IGamingHub : IStreamingHub
{
// The method must return `ValueTask`, `ValueTask`, `Task` or `Task` and can have up to 15 parameters of any type.
ValueTask JoinAsync(string roomName, string userName, Vector3 position, Quaternion rotation);
ValueTask LeaveAsync();
ValueTask MoveAsync(Vector3 position, Quaternion rotation);
}
// for example, request object by MessagePack.
[MessagePackObject]
public class Player
{
[Key(0)]
public string Name { get; set; }
[Key(1)]
public Vector3 Position { get; set; }
[Key(2)]
public Quaternion Rotation { get; set; }
}
```
```csharp
// Server implementation
// implements : StreamingHubBase, THub
public class GamingHub : StreamingHubBase, IGamingHub
{
// this class is instantiated per connected so fields are cache area of connection.
IGroup room;
Player self;
IInMemoryStorage storage;
public async ValueTask JoinAsync(string roomName, string userName, Vector3 position, Quaternion rotation)
{
self = new Player() { Name = userName, Position = position, Rotation = rotation };
// Group can bundle many connections and it has inmemory-storage so add any type per group.
(room, storage) = await Group.AddAsync(roomName, self);
// Typed Server->Client broadcast.
Broadcast(room).OnJoin(self);
return storage.AllValues.ToArray();
}
public async ValueTask LeaveAsync()
{
await room.RemoveAsync(this.Context);
Broadcast(room).OnLeave(self);
}
public async ValueTask MoveAsync(Vector3 position, Quaternion rotation)
{
self.Position = position;
self.Rotation = rotation;
Broadcast(room).OnMove(self);
}
// You can hook OnConnecting/OnDisconnected by override.
protected override ValueTask OnDisconnected()
{
// on disconnecting, if automatically removed this connection from group.
return ValueTask.CompletedTask;
}
}
```
You can write client like this.
```csharp
public class GamingHubClient : IGamingHubReceiver
{
Dictionary players = new Dictionary();
IGamingHub client;
public async ValueTask ConnectAsync(ChannelBase grpcChannel, string roomName, string playerName)
{
this.client = await StreamingHubClient.ConnectAsync(grpcChannel, this);
var roomPlayers = await client.JoinAsync(roomName, playerName, Vector3.zero, Quaternion.identity);
foreach (var player in roomPlayers)
{
(this as IGamingHubReceiver).OnJoin(player);
}
return players[playerName];
}
// methods send to server.
public ValueTask LeaveAsync()
{
return client.LeaveAsync();
}
public ValueTask MoveAsync(Vector3 position, Quaternion rotation)
{
return client.MoveAsync(position, rotation);
}
// dispose client-connection before channel.ShutDownAsync is important!
public Task DisposeAsync()
{
return client.DisposeAsync();
}
// You can watch connection state, use this for retry etc.
public Task WaitForDisconnect()
{
return client.WaitForDisconnect();
}
// Receivers of message from server.
void IGamingHubReceiver.OnJoin(Player player)
{
Debug.Log("Join Player:" + player.Name);
var cube = GameObject.CreatePrimitive(PrimitiveType.Cube);
cube.name = player.Name;
cube.transform.SetPositionAndRotation(player.Position, player.Rotation);
players[player.Name] = cube;
}
void IGamingHubReceiver.OnLeave(Player player)
{
Debug.Log("Leave Player:" + player.Name);
if (players.TryGetValue(player.Name, out var cube))
{
GameObject.Destroy(cube);
}
}
void IGamingHubReceiver.OnMove(Player player)
{
Debug.Log("Move Player:" + player.Name);
if (players.TryGetValue(player.Name, out var cube))
{
cube.transform.SetPositionAndRotation(player.Position, player.Rotation);
}
}
}
```
### Filter
MagicOnion filter is powerful feature to hook before-after invoke. It is useful than gRPC server interceptor.
```csharp
// You can attach per class/method like [SampleFilter]
// for StreamingHub methods, implement StreamingHubFilterAttribute instead.
public class SampleFilterAttribute : MagicOnionFilterAttribute
{
public override async ValueTask Invoke(ServiceContext context, Func next)
{
try
{
/* on before */
await next(context); // next
/* on after */
}
catch
{
/* on exception */
throw;
}
finally
{
/* on finally */
}
}
}
```
Here is example of what kind of filter can be stacked.
MagicOnion also provides an API for filters that is very similar to filter on ASP.NET Core MVC.
These APIs support flexible filter implementations.
- `IMagicOnionServiceFilter` interface
- `IStreamingHubFilter` interface
- `IMagicOnionFilterFactory` interface
- `IMagicOnionOrderedFilter` interface
#### Ordering
Filters can be ordered and they are executed in the following order:
```
[Ordered Filters] -> [Global Filters] -> [Class Filters] -> [Method Filters]
```
Unordered filters are treated as last (`int.MaxValue`) and executed in the order in which they are added.
#### GlobalFilters
Filters that apply to the application globally can be added at `GlobalFilters` of `MagicOnionOptions`.
```csharp
services.AddMagicOnion(options =>
{
options.GlobalFilters.Add();
options.GlobalStreamingHubFilters.Add();
});
```
#### Dependency Injections
MagicOnion filters supports [Dependency Injection](#dependency-injection). There are two ways to activate a filter by using `FromTypeFilter`, `FromServiceFitler` or by using `IMagicOnionFilterFactory`.
The following is an example of how to use `FromTypeFilter`, `FromServiceFitler`.
```csharp
public class MyServiceFilterAttribute : MagicOnionFilterAttribute
{
private readonly ILogger _logger;
// the `logger` parameter will be injected at instantiating.
public MyServiceFilterAttribute(ILogger logger)
{
_logger = logger;
}
public override async ValueTask Invoke(ServiceContext context, Func next)
{
_logger.LogInformation($"MyServiceFilter Begin: {context.Path}");
await next(context);
_logger.LogInformation($"MyServiceFilter End: {context.Path}");
}
}
```
Register filters using attributes with constructor injection(you can use `[FromTypeFilter]` and `[FromServiceFilter]`).
```csharp
[FromTypeFilter(typeof(MyFilterAttribute))]
public class MyService : ServiceBase, IMyService
{
// The filter will instantiate from type.
[FromTypeFilter(typeof(MySecondFilterAttribute))]
public UnaryResult Foo()
{
return UnaryResult(0);
}
// The filter will instantiate from type with some arguments. if the arguments are missing, it will be obtained from `IServiceProvider`
[FromTypeFilter(typeof(MyThirdFilterAttribute), Arguments = new object[] { "foo", 987654 })]
public UnaryResult Bar()
{
return UnaryResult(0);
}
// The filter instance will be provided via `IServiceProvider`.
[FromServiceFilter(typeof(MyFourthFilterAttribute))]
public UnaryResult Baz()
{
return UnaryResult(0);
}
}
```
The following is an example of how to use `IMagicOnionFilterFactory`.
This is a clean way of writing when using DI while still having parameters for the attributes.
```csharp
public class MyServiceFilterAttribute : Attribute, IMagicOnionFilterFactory, IMagicOnionOrderedFilter
{
readonly string label;
public int Order { get; set; } = int.MaxValue;
public MyServiceFilterAttribute(string label)
{
this.label = label;
}
public IMagicOnionServiceFilter CreateInstance(IServiceProvider serviceProvider)
=> new MyServiceFilter(serviceProvider.GetRequiredService>());
class MyServiceFilter : IMagicOnionServiceFilter
{
readonly string label;
readonly ILogger logger;
public MyServiceFilter(string label, ILogger logger)
{
this.label = label;
this.logger = logger;
}
public async ValueTask Invoke(ServiceContext context, Func next)
{
logger.LogInformation($"[{label}] MyServiceFilter Begin: {context.Path}");
await next(context);
logger.LogInformation($"[{label}] MyServiceFilter End: {context.Path}");
}
}
}
```
```csharp
[MyServiceFilter("Class")]
public class MyService : ServiceBase, IMyService
{
[MyServiceFilter("Method")]
public UnaryResult Foo()
{
return UnaryResult(0);
}
}
```
#### Extension Interfaces
The following interfaces are provided for filter extensions. These interfaces are similar to ASP.NET Core MVC filter mechanism.
- `IMagicOnionFilterFactory`
- `IMagicOnionOrderedFilter`
- `IMagicOnionServiceFilter`
- `IStreamingHubFilter`
`MagicOnionFilterAttributes` and `StreamingHubFilterAttribute` implement these interfaces for easy use. You can use these interfaces for more flexible implementation.
### ClientFilter
MagicOnion client-filter is a powerful feature to hook before-after invoke. It is useful than gRPC client interceptor.
> Currently only supports on Unary.
```csharp
// you can attach in MagicOnionClient.Create.
var client = MagicOnionClient.Create(channel, new IClientFilter[]
{
new LoggingFilter(),
new AppendHeaderFilter(),
new RetryFilter()
});
```
You can create custom client-filter by implements `IClientFilter.SendAsync`.
```csharp
public class IDemoFilter : IClientFilter
{
public async ValueTask SendAsync(RequestContext context, Func> next)
{
try
{
/* Before Request, context.MethodPath/CallOptions/Items, etc */
var response = await next(context); /* Call next filter or method body */
/* After Request, response.GetStatus/GetTrailers/GetResponseAs, etc */
return response;
}
catch (RpcException ex)
{
/* Get gRPC Error Response */
throw;
}
catch (OperationCanceledException ex)
{
/* If canceled */
throw;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
/* Other Exception */
throw;
}
finally
{
/* Common Finalize */
}
}
}
```
Here is the sample filters, you can imagine what you can do.
```csharp
public class AppendHeaderFilter : IClientFilter
{
public async ValueTask SendAsync(RequestContext context, Func> next)
{
// add the common header(like authentication).
var header = context.CallOptions.Headers;
if (!header.Any(x => x.Key == "x-foo"))
{
header.Add("x-foo", "abcdefg");
header.Add("x-bar", "hijklmn");
}
return await next(context);
}
}
public class LoggingFilter : IClientFilter
{
public async ValueTask SendAsync(RequestContext context, Func> next)
{
Console.WriteLine("Request Begin:" + context.MethodPath); // Debug.Log in Unity.
var sw = Stopwatch.StartNew();
var response = await next(context);
sw.Stop();
Console.WriteLine("Request Completed:" + context.MethodPath + ", Elapsed:" + sw.Elapsed.TotalMilliseconds + "ms");
return response;
}
}
public class ResponseHandlingFilter : IClientFilter
{
public async ValueTask SendAsync(RequestContext context, Func> next)
{
var response = await next(context);
if (context.MethodPath == "ICalc/Sum")
{
// You can cast response type.
var sumResult = await response.GetResponseAs();
Console.WriteLine("Called Sum, Result:" + sumResult);
}
return response;
}
}
public class MockRequestFilter : IClientFilter
{
public async ValueTask SendAsync(RequestContext context, Func> next)
{
if (context.MethodPath == "ICalc/Sum")
{
// don't call next, return mock result.
return new ResponseContext(9999);
}
return await next(context);
}
}
public class RetryFilter : IClientFilter
{
public async ValueTask SendAsync(RequestContext context, Func> next)
{
Exception lastException = null;
var retryCount = 0;
while (retryCount != 3)
{
try
{
// using same CallOptions so be careful to add duplicate headers or etc.
return await next(context);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
lastException = ex;
}
retryCount++;
}
throw new Exception("Retry failed", lastException);
}
}
```
### ServiceContext and Lifecycle
Service/StreamingHub's method or `MagicOnionFilter` can access `this.Context` it is
| Property | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `ConcurrentDictionary` Items | Object storage per request/connection. |
| `Guid` ContextId | Unique ID per request(Service)/connection(StreamingHub). |
| `DateTime` Timestamp | Timestamp that request/connection is started time. |
| `Type` ServiceType | Invoked Class. |
| `MethodInfo` MethodInfo | Invoked Method. |
| `ILookup AttributeLookup | Cached Attributes that merged both service and method. |
| `ServerCallContext` CallContext | Raw gRPC Context. |
| `MessagePackSerializerOptions` SerializerOptions | Using MessagePack serializer options. |
| `IServiceProvider` ServiceProvider | Get the service provider. |
`Items` is useful, for example authentication filter add UserId to Items and take out from service method.
> If using StreamingHub, ServiceContext means per connected context so `Items` is not per method invoke. `StreamingHubContext.Items` supports per streaming hub method request but currently can not take from streaming hub method(only use in StreamingHubFilter). [Issue:#67](https://github.com/Cysharp/MagicOnion/issues/67), it will fix.
MagicOnion supports get current context globally like HttpContext.Current. `ServiceContext.Current` can get it but it requires `MagicOnionOptions.EnableCurrentContext = true`, default is false.
Lifecycle image of ServiceBase
```
gRPC In(
var context = new ServiceContext();
Filter.Invoke(context,
var service = new ServiceImpl();
service.ServiceContext = context;
service.MethodInvoke(
/* method impl */
)
)
)
```
Lifecycle image of StreamingHub(StreamingHub is inherited from ServiceBase)
```
gRPC In(
var context = new ServiceContext();
Filter.Invoke(context,
var hub = new StreamingHubImpl();
hub.ServiceContext = context;
hub.Connect(
while (connecting) {
Streaming In(
var streamingHubContext = new StreamingHubContext(context);
StreamingHubFilter.Invoke(streamingHubContext,
hub.MethodInvoke(
/* method impl */
)
)
)
}
)
)
)
```
StreamingHub instance is shared while connecting so StreamingHub's field can use cache area of connection.
### ExceptionHandling and StatusCode
If you are return custom status code from server to client, you can use `throw new ReturnStatusException`.
```csharp
public Task SendMessageAsync(string message)
{
if (message.Contains("foo"))
{
//
throw new ReturnStatusException((Grpc.Core.StatusCode)99, "invalid");
}
// ....
```
Client can receive exception as gRPC's `RpcException`. If performance centric to avoid exception throw, you can use raw gRPC CallContext.Status(`ServiceContext.CallContext.Status`) and set status directly.
MagicOnion's engine catched exception(except ReturnStatusException), set `StatusCode.Unknown` and client received gRPC's `RpcException`. If `MagicOnionOption.IsReturnExceptionStackTraceInErrorDetail` is true, client can receive StackTrace of server exception, it is very useful for debugging but has critical issue about security so should only to enable debug build.
### Group and GroupConfiguration
StreamingHub's broadcast system is called Group. It can get from StreamingHub impl method, `this.Group`(this.Group type is `HubGroupRepository`, not `IGroup`).
Current connection can add to group by `this.Group.AddAsync(string groupName)`, return value(`IGroup`) is joined group broadcaster so cache to field. It is enable per connection(if disconnected, automatically leaved from group). If you want to use some restriction, you can use `TryAddAsync(string groupName, int incluciveLimitCount, bool createIfEmpty)`.
`IGroup` can pass to StreamingHub.`Broadcast`, `BroadcastExceptSelf`, `BroadcastExcept` and calls client proxy.
```csharp
public class ChatHub : StreamingHubBase, IChatHub
{
string userName;
IGroup room;
public async ValueTask JoinAsync(string userName, string roomName)
{
this.userName = userName;
this.room = await Group.AddAsync(roomName);
}
public async ValueTask SendMessageAsync(string message)
{
Broadcast(room).OnReceiveMessage(userName, message);
}
}
```
> GroupRepository is created per StreamingHub type
> If you want to create ServerSide loop and broadcast out of StreamingHub, you can pass Broadcast(room) result but it is unnatural, I'll add support kit of create server-side loop
Group has in-memory storage, it can store extra data to group member. It can set `Group.AddAsync(string groupName, TStorage data)` instead of standard AddAsync.
Data is can get from `group.GetInMemoryStorage` and can invoke `AllValues`, `Set(Guid connectionId, T Value)`, `Get(Guid connectionId)`.
> StreamingHub's ConnectionId is ServiceContext.ContextId
Default MagicOnion's group is inmemory and using `ImmutableArrayGroup`. This group implementation is tuned for small room, not enter/leave frequently. If large room and enter/leave frequently design, you can use `ConcurrentDictionaryGroup`. It can configure by `GroupConfigurationAttribute` or `MagicOnionOptions.DefaultGroupRepositoryFactory`.
```csharp
// use ***GroupRepositoryFactory type.
[GroupConfiguration(typeof(ConcurrentDictionaryGroupRepositoryFactory))]
public class ChatHub : StreamingHubBase, IChatHub
{
// ...
}
```
MagicOnion has distribute system called redis-backplane for group broadcast.
```bash
dotnet add package MagicOnion.Server.Redis
```
```csharp
services.AddMagicOnion()
.UseRedisGroupRepository(options =>
{
options.ConnectionMultiplexer = ConnectionMultiplexer.Connect("localhost:6379");
});
// If you want to use Redis backplane by default, you can specify `registerAsDefault: true`.
```
```csharp
// Use Redis as backplane
[GroupConfiguration(typeof(RedisGroupRepositoryFactory))]
public class ...
{
}
```
### Dependency Injection
Like Dependency Injection on ASP.NET Core MVC, MagicOnion also supports DI to services and hubs.
```csharp
public class MyFirstService : ServiceBase, IMyFirstService
{
IOptions config;
ILogger logger;
public MyFirstService(IOptions config, ILogger logger)
{
this.config = config;
this.logger = logger;
}
// ...
}
```
### Project structure recommendation
The recommended structure for a solution using MagicOnion is as follows:
- **Client** (WPF, Console, etc ...)
- **Server** (ASP.NET Core Application)
- **Shared** (Class library)
The **Shared** project is a library project with interface definitions like Service or Hub and types of requests/responses, shared between the **Server** and **Client**.
When developing using Unity, recommended way is use UPM local file reference. For more details on package referencing, please refer to [the document of the sample project](https://github.com/Cysharp/MagicOnion/tree/main/samples/ChatApp).

## Ahead-of-Time compilation support with Source Generator
MagicOnion supports Unity, NativeAOT, and other platforms that require pre-generated client code with Source Generator (MagicOnion.Client.SourceGenerator).
MagicOnion.Client.SourceGenerator is shipped with MagicOnion.Client package.
This means that you no longer need to the install generator tool (moc) and setup additional build steps.
### Supported development environments
- Unity 2021.3.0f1 or later
- .NET 6 or later
- Visual Studio 2022 version 17.2 or later
- Rider 2023.1 or later
### Usage
Define a `partial` class with any name of your choosing within the application. Mark it with the `MagicOnionClientGeneration` attribute, and specify any service type found within the assembly where you want to search for the service interface.
For example, if the `MyApp.Shared` assembly contains `MyApp.Shared.Services.IGreeterService` and `MyApp.Shared.Hubs.IChatHub`, specify one of them.
```csharp
using MagicOnion.Client;
[MagicOnionClientGeneration(typeof(MyApp.Shared.Services.IGreeterService))]
partial class MagicOnionGeneratedClientInitializer {}
```
Next, configure MessagePack to use the generated MessagePack Resolver. This is the same as when using the legacy MagicOnion.Generator.
```csharp
#if UNITY_2019_4_OR_NEWER
[UnityEngine.RuntimeInitializeOnLoadMethod(UnityEngine.RuntimeInitializeLoadType.BeforeSceneLoad)]
#elif NET5_0_OR_GREATER
[System.Runtime.CompilerServices.ModuleInitializer]
#endif
static void RegisterResolvers()
{
StaticCompositeResolver.Instance.Register(
// Add: Use MessagePack formatter resolver generated by the source generator.
MagicOnionGeneratedClientInitializer.Resolver,
MessagePack.Resolvers.GeneratedResolver.Instance,
BuiltinResolver.Instance,
PrimitiveObjectResolver.Instance
);
MessagePackSerializer.DefaultOptions = MessagePackSerializer.DefaultOptions
.WithResolver(StaticCompositeResolver.Instance);
}
```
### Source generation options
You can specify options in the named constructor of the attribute.
- **`DisableAutoRegistration`**: Sets whether to disable automatically calling `Register` during start-up. (Automatic registration requires .NET 5+ or Unity)
- **`MessagePackFormatterNamespace`**: Sets the namespace of pre-generated MessagePackFormatters. The default value is `MessagePack.Formatters`.
- **`Serializer`**: Sets the serializer used for message serialization. The default value is `GenerateSerializerType.MessagePack`.
## Support for Unity client
MagicOnion supports from Unity version 2021.3.0f1 (LTS) and above, which is available for `.NET 4.x` runtime and C# 9 or latest.
Using MagicOnion with Unity client requires the following things:
- gRPC library
- MessagePack for C#
- MagicOnion.Client for Unity
### Install gRPC library
There are two ways to use the gRPC library in Unity:
- Using [YetAnotherHttpHandler](https://github.com/Cysharp/YetAnotherHttpHandler) and grpc-dotnet (recommended)
- Using gRPC's C-core (not recommended)
Since the maintenance of the C-core based library has ended in the gRPC project, we recommend using [YetAnotherHttpHandler](https://github.com/Cysharp/YetAnotherHttpHandler) . Please refer to the [README of YetAnotherHttpHandler](https://github.com/Cysharp/YetAnotherHttpHandler) for installation instructions. [It also covers how to install grpc-dotnet (Grpc.Net.Client)](https://github.com/Cysharp/YetAnotherHttpHandler#using-grpc-grpc-dotnet-library).
If you are using the C-core gRPC library, please define `MAGICONION_USE_GRPC_CCORE` symbol in "Scripting Define Symbols".
### Install MessagePack for C#
MessagePack for C# is not included in MagicOnion package. You need to download and install separately.
See [MessagePack for C# installation for Unity](https://github.com/MessagePack-CSharp/MessagePack-CSharp#unity) for details.
### Install MagicOnion.Client
There are two methods to install the MagicOnion.Client package:
- Using the Unity package manager from git (recommended)
- Using a .unitypackage.
To install using the Unity package manager, please specify the following URL in "Add package from git URL...". Specify the version tag as needed.
```
https://github.com/Cysharp/MagicOnion.git?path=src/MagicOnion.Client.Unity/Assets/Scripts/MagicOnion#{Version}
```
> [!NOTE]
> Please replace `{Version}` with the version number you want to install (e.g. `6.0.1`).
`MagicOnion.Client.Unity.package` is available for download from [Releases](https://github.com/cysharp/MagicOnion/releases) page of this repository.
The package contains the code to use MagicOnion with Unity. It consists of several extensions for Unity in addition to MagicOnion.Client NuGet package.
### Works with IL2CPP
If your project uses IL2CPP as a scripting backend, additional setup will be required. See [Ahead-of-Time compilation support with Source Generator](#ahead-of-time-compilation-support-with-source-generator) section for details.
### gRPC channel management integration for Unity
Wraps gRPC channels and provides a mechanism to manage them with Unity's lifecycle.
This prevents your application and the Unity Editor from freezing by releasing channels and StreamingHub in one place.
The editor extension also provides the ability to display the communication status of channels.
> **NOTE**: The data rate is calculated only for the message body of methods, and does not include Headers, Trailers, or Keep-alive pings.
#### New APIs
- `MagicOnion.GrpcChannelx` class
- `GrpcChannelx.ForTarget(GrpcChannelTarget)` method
- `GrpcChannelx.ForAddress(Uri)` method
- `GrpcChannelx.ForAddress(string)` method
- `MagicOnion.Unity.GrpcChannelProviderHost` class
- `GrpcChannelProviderHost.Initialize(IGrpcChannelProvider)` method
- `MagicOnion.Unity.IGrpcChannelProvider` interface
- `DefaultGrpcChannelProvider` class
- `LoggingGrpcChannelProvider` class
#### Usages
##### 1. Prepare to use `GrpcChannelx` in your Unity project.
Before creating a channel in your application, you need to initialize the provider host to be managed.
```csharp
[RuntimeInitializeOnLoadMethod(RuntimeInitializeLoadType.BeforeSceneLoad)]
public static void OnRuntimeInitialize()
{
// Initialize gRPC channel provider when the application is loaded.
GrpcChannelProviderHost.Initialize(new DefaultGrpcChannelProvider(() => new GrpcChannelOptions()
{
HttpHandler = new YetAnotherHttpHandler()
{
Http2Only = true,
},
DisposeHttpClient = true,
}));
}
```
GrpcChannelProviderHost will be created as DontDestroyOnLoad and keeps existing while the application is running. DO NOT destroy it.
##### 2. Use `GrpcChannelx.ForTarget` or `GrpcChannelx.ForAddress` to create a channel.
Use `GrpcChannelx.ForTarget` or `GrpcChannelx.ForAddress` to create a channel instead of `new Channel(...)`.
```csharp
var channel = GrpcChannelx.ForTarget(new GrpcChannelTarget("localhost", 12345, ChannelCredentials.Insecure));
// or
var channel = GrpcChannelx.ForAddress("http://localhost:12345");
```
##### 3. Use the channel instead of `Grpc.Core.Channel`.
```csharp
var channel = GrpcChannelx.ForAddress("http://localhost:12345");
var serviceClient = MagicOnionClient.Create(channel);
var hubClient = StreamingHubClient.ConnectAsync(channel, this);
```
##### Extensions for Unity Editor (Editor Window & Inspector)
## gRPC Keepalive
When you want detect network termination on Client or vice-versa, you can configure gRPC Keepalive.
### Applied to .NET Standard 2.1 or .NET 6+ platforms (Grpc.Net.Client)
See [keep alive pings | Performance best practices with gRPC | Microsoft Docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/grpc/performance?view=aspnetcore-5.0#keep-alive-pings) for information on setting up keepalive for Grpc.Net.Client.
## HTTPS (TLS)
MagicOnion supports TLS encrypted connection.
### Server-side
In general, HTTPS encryption settings on the server follow ASP.NET Core. For more information, see [Enforce HTTPS in ASP.NET Core | Microsoft Docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/ja-jp/aspnet/core/security/enforcing-ssl).
> **NOTE**: The limitations on macOS environment and when running on Docker are also described in ASP.NET Core documentation.
### Client-side
Depending on whether the client supports .NET Standard 2.1 or .NET Standard 2.1 (including Unity), the configuration is different.
#### .NET Standard 2.1 or .NET 6+
If the client supports .NET Standard 2.1 or newer, MagicOnion uses `Grpc.Net.Client` (a pure C# implementation) for gRPC connection.
Grpc.Net.Client uses `HttpClient` internally, so it handles certificates the same way as `HttpClient`. For example, on Windows, it uses Windows's certificate store to validate certificates.
#### .NET Standard 2.0 (.NET Framework 4.6.1+)
If the client supports .NET Standard 2.0, MagicOnion uses `Grpc.Core` (C-library binding) for gRPC connection.
Grpc.Core has its [own certificate store built into the library](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/etc/roots.pem) and uses it unless you specify a certificate. This certificate store contains common CAs and is rarely a problem in production environment.
However, there is a problem when connecting with a server using [ASP.NET Core development certificate](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/security/enforcing-ssl?view=aspnetcore-5.0&tabs=visual-studio#trust-the-aspnet-core-https-development-certificate-on-windows-and-macos). For example, if you see the following exceptions when you try to connect, the server certificate validation may have failed.
```
Grpc.Core.RpcException: 'Status(StatusCode="Unavailable", Detail="failed to connect to all addresses", ...')
```
The following workarounds are suggested for such cases:
- Issue and configure a trusted certificate to the server
- Use OpenSSL commands to issue and configure self-signed certificates to servers and clients
- Unencrypted connection without TLS
### Use HTTP unencrypted connection without TLS
It is recommended to use HTTPS for server-client connection, but in some cases during development you may want to configure unencrypted connection. Also, you need to configure unencrypted connection in macOS because ALPN over TLS is not supported.
#### Server-side
To allow your server to accept unencrypted HTTP/2, you must configure an endpoint to listen to Kestrel. Endpoints can be configured either by using `appsettings.json` or directly in the source code.
See also [Unable to start ASP.NET Core gRPC app on macOS | Troubleshoot gRPC on .NET Core](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/grpc/troubleshoot#unable-to-start-aspnet-core-grpc-app-on-macos) for details.
```json
{
...
"Kestrel": {
"Endpoints": {
"Grpc": {
"Url": "http://localhost:5000",
"Protocols": "Http2"
},
"Https": {
"Url": "https://localhost:5001",
"Protocols": "Http1AndHttp2"
},
"Http": {
"Url": "http://localhost:5002",
"Protocols": "Http1"
}
}
},
...
}
```
```csharp
webBuilder
.UseKestrel(options =>
{
// WORKAROUND: Accept HTTP/2 only to allow insecure HTTP/2 connections during development.
options.ConfigureEndpointDefaults(endpointOptions =>
{
endpointOptions.Protocols = HttpProtocols.Http2;
});
})
.UseStartup();
```
#### Client-side (.NET Standard 2.1 or .NET 6+; Grpc.Net.Client)
When calling `GrpcChannel.ForAddress`, change the URL scheme to HTTP and the port to an unencrypted port.
```csharp
var channel = GrpcChannel.ForAddress("http://localhost:5000");
```
See also [Call insecure gRPC services with .NET Core client | Troubleshoot gRPC on .NET Core | Microsoft Docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/grpc/troubleshoot#call-insecure-grpc-services-with-net-core-client) for details.
#### Limitations
If unencrypted HTTP/2 connection is accepted, HTTP/1 and HTTP/2 cannot be served on the same port.
When TLS is enabled, ALPN is used for HTTP/2 negotiation, but with non-TLS, this is not possible.
If you want HTTP/1 and HTTP/2 to work together for the convenience of hosting a web site or API, you can listen on multiple ports by configuring Kestrel.
## Deployment
MagicOnion is also supported in Docker containers and running on Kubernetes.
See [docs/articles/deployment/](docs/articles/deployment/) for information on deploying to Amazon Web Service and other cloud services.
## Integrations
### Metrics
MagicOnion server supports metrics related to StreamingHub using System.Diagnostics.Metrics.
- see: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/diagnostics/metrics
#### Meter: MagicOnion.Server
|Metric|Unit|Tags|
|--|--|--|
|magiconion.server.streaminghub.connections|`{connection}`|`rpc.system`, `rpc.service`|
|magiconion.server.streaminghub.method_duration|`ms`|`rpc.system`, `rpc.service`, `rpc.method`|
|magiconion.server.streaminghub.method_completed|`{request}`|`rpc.system`, `rpc.service`, `rpc.method`, `magiconion.streaminghub.is_error`|
|magiconion.server.streaminghub.exceptions|`{exception}`|`rpc.system`, `rpc.service`, `rpc.method`, `error.type`|
##### Tags
|Tag name|Value|
|--|--|
|rpc.system|`magiconion`|
|rpc.service|StreamingHub interface name (e.g. `IGreeterService`)|
|rpc.method|StreamingHub method name (e.g. `HelloAsync`)|
|magiconion.streaminghub.is_error|Whether a StreamingHub method call succeeded or failed. (e.g. `true` or `false`)|
|error.type|Thrown exception type (e.g. `System.InvalidOperationException`)|
### Swagger
MagicOnion has built-in HTTP/1.1 JSON Gateway and [Swagger](http://swagger.io/) integration for Unary operation. It can execute and debug RPC-API easily.
```bash
dotnet add package MagicOnion.Server.HttpGateway
```
```csharp
public class Startup
{
public Startup(IConfiguration configuration)
{
Configuration = configuration;
}
public IConfiguration Configuration { get; }
// This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to add services to the container.
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services.AddControllersWithViews();
services.AddGrpc(); // MagicOnion depends on ASP.NET Core gRPC service.
services.AddMagicOnion();
}
// This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to configure the HTTP request pipeline.
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env)
{
if (env.IsDevelopment())
{
app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
}
app.UseRouting();
app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
{
endpoints.MapMagicOnionHttpGateway("_", app.ApplicationServices.GetService().MethodHandlers, GrpcChannel.ForAddress("https://localhost:5001"));
endpoints.MapMagicOnionSwagger("swagger", app.ApplicationServices.GetService().MethodHandlers, "/_/");
endpoints.MapMagicOnionService();
});
}
}
```
Open `http://localhost:5000`, you can see swagger view.

### Raw gRPC APIs
MagicOnion can define and use primitive gRPC APIs(ClientStreaming, ServerStreaming, DuplexStreaming). Especially DuplexStreaming is used underlying StreamingHub. If there is no reason, we recommend using StreamingHub.
```csharp
// Definitions
public interface IMyFirstService : IService
{
UnaryResult SumAsync(int x, int y);
Task> SumLegacyTaskAsync(int x, int y);
Task> ClientStreamingSampleAsync();
Task> ServerStreamingSampleAsync(int x, int y, int z);
Task> DuplexStreamingSampleAsync();
}
// Server
public class MyFirstService : ServiceBase, IMyFirstService
{
public async UnaryResult SumAsync(int x, int y)
{
Logger.Debug($"Called SumAsync - x:{x} y:{y}");
return (x + y).ToString();
}
public async Task> ClientStreamingSampleAsync()
{
Logger.Debug($"Called ClientStreamingSampleAsync");
// If ClientStreaming, use GetClientStreamingContext.
var stream = GetClientStreamingContext();
// receive from client asynchronously
await foreach (var x in stream.ReadAllAsync())
{
Logger.Debug("Client Stream Received:" + x);
}
// StreamingContext.Result() for result value.
return stream.Result("finished");
}
public async Task> ServerStreamingSampleAsync(int x, int y, int z)
{
Logger.Debug($"Called ServerStreamingSampleAsync - x:{x} y:{y} z:{z}");
var stream = GetServerStreamingContext();
var acc = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < z; i++)
{
acc = acc + x + y;
await stream.WriteAsync(acc.ToString());
}
return stream.Result();
}
public async Task> DuplexStreamingSampleAsync()
{
Logger.Debug($"Called DuplexStreamingSampleAsync");
// DuplexStreamingContext represents both server and client streaming.
var stream = GetDuplexStreamingContext();
var waitTask = Task.Run(async () =>
{
// ForEachAsync(MoveNext, Current) can receive client streaming.
await foreach (var x in stream.ReadAllAsync())
{
Logger.Debug($"Duplex Streaming Received:" + x);
}
});
// WriteAsync is ServerStreaming.
await stream.WriteAsync("test1");
await stream.WriteAsync("test2");
await stream.WriteAsync("finish");
await waitTask;
return stream.Result();
}
}
```
Client sample.
```csharp
static async Task ClientStreamRun(IMyFirstService client)
{
var stream = await client.ClientStreamingSampleAsync();
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
{
await stream.RequestStream.WriteAsync(i);
}
await stream.RequestStream.CompleteAsync();
var response = await stream.ResponseAsync;
Console.WriteLine("Response:" + response);
}
static async Task ServerStreamRun(IMyFirstService client)
{
var stream = await client.ServerStreamingSampleAsync(10, 20, 3);
await foreach (var x in stream.ResponseStream.ReadAllAsync())
{
Console.WriteLine("ServerStream Response:" + x);
}
}
static async Task DuplexStreamRun(IMyFirstService client)
{
var stream = await client.DuplexStreamingSampleAsync();
var count = 0;
await foreach (var x in stream.ResponseStream.ReadAllAsync())
{
Console.WriteLine("DuplexStream Response:" + x);
await stream.RequestStream.WriteAsync(count++);
if (x == "finish")
{
await stream.RequestStream.CompleteAsync();
}
}
}
```
### Zero deserialization mapping
In RPC, especially in real-time communication involving frequent transmission of data, it is often the serialization process where data is converted before being sent that limits the performance. In MagicOnion, serialization is done by my MessagePack for C#, which is the fastest binary serializer for C#, so it cannot be a limiting factor. Also, in addition to performance, it also provides flexibility regarding data in that variables of any type can be sent as long as they can be serialized by MessagePack for C#.
Also, taking advantage of the fact that both the client and the server run on C# and data stored on internal memory are expected to share the same layout, I added an option to do mapping through memory copy without serialization/deserialization in case of a value-type variable.
Especially in Unity, this is can combinate with `MessagePack.UnityShims` package of NuGet.
```csharp
// It supports standard struct-type variables that are provided by Unity, such as Vector3, and arrays containing them, as well as custom struct-type variables and their arrays.
// I recommend doing this explicitly using [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Explicit)] to accurately match the size.
public struct CustomStruct
{
public long Id;
public int Hp;
public int Mp;
public byte Status;
}
// ---- Register the following code when initializing.
// By registering it, T and T[] can be handled using zero deserialization mapping.
UnsafeDirectBlitResolver.Register();
// The struct-type above as well as Unity-provided struct-types (Vector2, Rect, etc.), and their arrays are registered as standards.
CompositeResolver.RegisterAndSetAsDefault(
UnsafeDirectBlitResolver.Instance,
MessagePack.Unity.Extension.UnityBlitResolver.Instance
);
// --- Now the communication will be in the format above when they are used for transmission.
await client.SendAsync(new CustomStruct { Hp = 99 });
```
Nothing needs to be processed here, so it promises the best performance theoretically possible in terms of transmission speed. However, since these struct-type variables need to be copied, I recommend handling everything as ref as a rule when you need to define a large struct-type, or it might slow down the process.
I believe that this can be easily and effectively applied to sending a large number of Transforms, such as an array of Vector3 variables.
### Customizing message serialization and encryption
MagicOnion uses MessagePack for serialization by default, but it also provides extension points to customize serialization.
It allows for customization, such as encryption and the using of serializers other than MessagePack.
```csharp
///
/// Provides a serializer for request/response of MagicOnion services and hub methods.
///
public interface IMagicOnionSerializerProvider
{
IMagicOnionSerializer Create(MethodType methodType, MethodInfo? methodInfo);
}
///
/// Provides a processing for message serialization.
///
public interface IMagicOnionSerializer
{
void Serialize(IBufferWriter writer, in T? value);
T? Deserialize(in ReadOnlySequence bytes);
}
public static class MagicOnionSerializerProvider
{
///
/// Gets or sets the to be used by default.
///
public static IMagicOnionSerializerProvider Default { get; set; } = MessagePackMagicOnionSerializerProvider.Default;
}
```
The following code is a simple example of performing XOR encryption:
```csharp
public class XorMessagePackMagicOnionSerializerProvider : IMagicOnionSerializerProvider
{
const int MagicNumber = 0x11;
readonly MessagePackSerializerOptions serializerOptions;
public static IMagicOnionSerializerProvider Instance { get; } = new XorMessagePackMagicOnionSerializerProvider(MessagePackSerializer.DefaultOptions);
XorMessagePackMagicOnionSerializerProvider(MessagePackSerializerOptions serializerOptions)
=> this.serializerOptions = serializerOptions;
class XorMessagePackMagicOnionSerializer : IMagicOnionSerializer
{
readonly MessagePackSerializerOptions serializerOptions;
public XorMessagePackMagicOnionSerializer(MessagePackSerializerOptions serializerOptions)
{
this.serializerOptions = serializerOptions;
}
public T Deserialize(in ReadOnlySequence bytes)
{
var array = ArrayPool.Shared.Rent((int)bytes.Length);
try
{
bytes.CopyTo(array);
for (var i = 0; i < bytes.Length; i++)
{
array[i] ^= MagicNumber;
}
return MessagePackSerializer.Deserialize(array.AsMemory(0, (int)bytes.Length), serializerOptions);
}
finally
{
ArrayPool.Shared.Return(array);
}
}
public void Serialize(IBufferWriter writer, in T value)
{
var serialized = MessagePackSerializer.Serialize(value, serializerOptions);
for (var i = 0; i < serialized.Length; i++)
{
serialized[i] ^= MagicNumber;
}
writer.Write(serialized);
}
}
public IMagicOnionSerializer Create(MethodType methodType, MethodInfo? methodInfo)
=> new XorMessagePackMagicOnionSerializer(serializerOptions);
}
```
#### MemoryPack support
MagicOnion also supports MemoryPack as a message serializer. (preview)
```
dotnet add package MagicOnion.Serialization.MemoryPack
```
Set `MemoryPackMagicOnionSerializerProvider` to `MagicOnionSerializerProvider` on the client and server to serialize using MemoryPack.
```csharp
MagicOnionSerializerProvider.Default = MemoryPackMagicOnionSerializerProvider.Instance;
// or
await StreamingHubClient.ConnectAsync(channel, receiver, serializerProvider: MemoryPackMagicOnionSerializerProvider.Instance);
MagicOnionClient.Create(channel, MemoryPackMagicOnionSerializerProvider.Instance);
```
If you want to use MagicOnion.Client.SourceGenerator, you need to specify `Serializer = GenerateSerializerType.MemoryPack` to the attribute. The generated code will use MemoryPack instead of MessagePack.
The application must also call `MagicOnionMemoryPackFormatterProvider.RegisterFormatters()` on startup.
