Due to some personal issue, I have to leave for a period. Hope this library can help you.

ChakraCore.NET

A dotnet hosting library for chakracore (javascript) engine to provide scripting capability to dotnet applications. The primary target is make it easy to learn and use.

Platform

This library is build with NetStandard 1.4 and Chakracore 1.4.1

Support following platform:

  • .NET Framework 4.6.1
  • UWP (windows 10 , Windows 10 IoT , Windows 10 Mobile)
  • Net Core 1.0
  • Mono/Xamarin

As DotnetCore and Chakracore 1.4.1 supports cross platform, idealy you can use this library at any OS which supported by these 2 libraries. This library is created and tested on windows 10 platform. If you're using it on other platform than Windows 10, feel free to send me a feed back.

Sample

Samples are still under development, suggest read the unit test code for a start by now. here's some simple code which demostrates the basic usage of the library

Setup runtime and context, then run a script

    ChakraRuntime runtime=ChakraRuntime.Create();
    ChakraContext context=runtime.CreateContext(true);
    context.RunScript("var a=1;");

write 1 to variable a

    context.GlobalObject.WriteProperty<int>("a", 1); //js: var a=1;

read variable a

    int value=context.GlobalObject.ReadProperty<T>("a"); //js: return a;

call js function

    context.RunScript("function add(v){return v+1}");  //run the script to create function add
    var b=context.GlobalObject.CallFunction<int, int>("add", 1); //js: return add([value]);

expose function

    public int Add(int value)
    {
        return value + 1;
    }
    context.GlobalObject.Binding.SetFunction<int,int>("add", Add); //js: function add(v){[native code]}

call js function with callback

    public void echo(string s)
    {
        Debug.WriteLine(s);
    }
    context.RunScript("function test(callback){callback('hello world')})");  //init js function
    context.ServiceNode.GetService<IJSValueConverterService>().RegisterMethodConverter<string>();  //regiser callback method type
    context.GlobalObject.CallMethod<Action<string>>("test", echo);   //js: test([native function]);

map a dotnet object instance to js

    public class DebugEcho
    {
        public void Echo(String s)
        {
            Debug.WriteLine(s);
        }
    }

    context.ServiceNode.GetService<IJSValueConverterService>().RegisterProxyConverter<DebugEcho>( //register the object converter
        (binding, instance, serviceNode) =>
        {
            binding.SetMethod<string>("echo",instance.Echo); //js: [object].echo=function(s){[native code]}
        });
    DebugEcho obj = new DebugEcho();
    context.GlobalObject.WriteProperty<DebugEcho>("debugEcho", obj); //js: var debugEcho=[native object]
