Architecture question

I’m playing with Hangfire to see if it will work for us.

I would like various services hosted in Console apps, IIS/WCF, Windows Services, Task scheduler hosts, ect to Queue a peice of work (fire and forget) and executed on the hangfire servers?

If the hangfire web servers have the required assemblies in the IOC container is this possible?

Thanks!

I think my assumptions are correct but I can’t get any of the IOC containers to work (I think) because Hangfire has the following errors.

Could not load file or assembly ‘TestPlugin’, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null’ or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

I have nLog assemblies in the project and I thought I saw the documentation say it will use it without configuration but I dont see any log files (I configured in the nlog.config)

Ideas?

GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.UseSqlServerStorage(“HangFire”);
BackgroundJobClient client = new BackgroundJobClient();
client.Enqueue(t => t.Do());

public class Worker
{
public Worker() { }
public void Do()
{
Task.Delay(5000);
}
}

No matter where I put the assemblies, they will only be executed by hangfire if they are in the bin with hangfire.

We’ve used various ioc containers and scanned folders for assemblies in asp mvc sites without location issues.

We looked at folder permissions and that seemed ok.

I’m putting them there for now, but it seems really odd.
