Is there a memory job storage for Hangfire?

Question

I have a console application for testing HangFire. Here is the code:

using System; using Hangfire; namespace MyScheduler.ConsoleApp { internal static class Program { internal static void Main(string[] args) { MyMethod(); Console.WriteLine("[Finished]"); Console.ReadKey(); } private static void MyMethod() { RecurringJob.AddOrUpdate(() => Console.Write("Easy!"), Cron.Minutely); } } } 

But it throws an exception at runtime:

Additional Information: The value of the JobStorage.Current property was not initialized. You must install it before using the Hangfire Client or Server API.

To do this, I need a job repository. But all the examples are in SQL repository, etc. Is there any way to run this example with some kind of memory store?

 JobStorage.Current = new SqlServerStorage("ConnectionStringName", options); // to JobStorage.Current = new MemoryDbStorage(string.Empty, options); 

Answer 1

You can use Hangfire.MemoryStorage for this.

Just add this nuget package .

And then you can use it like -

 GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.UseMemoryStorage(); 

Answer 2

For NET Core (web application):

Just to make it very obvious, because it was not obvious to me.

Install the following nuget packages:

• Hangfire AspNet Core (v1.6.17 atow)
• Hangfire.MemoryStorage.Core (v1.4.0 atow)

In Startup.cs:

  public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services) { // other registered services ... services.AddHangfire(c => c.UseMemoryStorage()); } public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env) { // other pipeline configuration ... app.UseHangfireServer(); app.UseMvc(); } 

Nothing less than the above, and my queued method didn't work.

Answer 3

As Yogi said, you can use Hangfire.MemoryStorage or Hangfire.MemoryStorage.Core (for .Net Core).

This answer is missing the full code (for .Net Core) that needs to be placed inside ConfigureServices (..):

 var inMemory = GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.UseMemoryStorage(); services.AddHangfire(x => x.UseStorage(inMemory));
