ASP.NET Public Anonymous Chat
Build a public anonymous chatroom with .NET and Pusher
Getting Started
Clone the project repository by running the command below if you use SSH
git clone git@github.com:ammezie/asp-anonymous-chat.git
If you use https, use this instead
git clone https://github.com/ammezie/asp-anonymous-chat.git
After cloning, open the pusherasp.sln file in visual studio.
Setup Pusher
If you don't have one already, create a free Pusher account at https://pusher.com/signup then login to your dashboard and create an app.
Then fill in your Pusher app credentials in your pusherasp\Controllers\HomeController file by replacing this line with your appid, appkey and app secret respectively:
var pusher = new Pusher("PUSHER_APP_ID", "PUSHER_APP_KEY", "PUSHER_APP_SECRET", options);
Also, remember to fill in the your secret key and app cluster in your pusherasp\Views\Home\Index.cshtml file by updating this line:
var pusher = new Pusher('PUSHER_APP_KEY', {cluster: 'XXX_CLUSTER'});
And finally, start the application by clicking the debug button on your visual studio.
