Thanks to Critiano's post and some searching on-line I managed to get it to work here's the code for anyone else having this issue. I've fgot it working with MVC3 and ASP.NET Web Api Beta but I think the same solution should work for MVC4.
Firstly I created a WindsorHttpControllerFactory as the ApiControllers use a different factory than the MVC ones.
public class WindsorHttpControllerFactory : IHttpControllerFactory
{
private readonly IKernel kernel;
private readonly HttpConfiguration configuration;
public WindsorHttpControllerFactory(IKernel kernel, HttpConfiguration configuration)
{
this.kernel = kernel;
this.configuration = configuration;
}
public IHttpController CreateController(HttpControllerContext controllerContext, string controllerName)
{
if (controllerName == null)
{
throw new HttpException(404, string.Format("The controller for path '{0}' could not be found.", controllerContext.Request.RequestUri.AbsolutePath));
}
var controller = kernel.Resolve<IHttpController>(controllerName);
controllerContext.Controller = controller;
controllerContext.ControllerDescriptor = new HttpControllerDescriptor(configuration, controllerName, controller.GetType());
return controllerContext.Controller;
}
public void ReleaseController(IHttpController controller)
{
kernel.ReleaseComponent(controller);
}
}
The tricky part was registration it seems to involved registering a whole bunch of other stuff. This is what I ended up with.
container.Register(Component.For<IHttpControllerFactory>().ImplementedBy<WindsorHttpControllerFactory>().LifeStyle.Singleton);
container.Register(Component.For<System.Web.Http.Common.ILogger>().ImplementedBy<MyLogger>().LifeStyle.Singleton);
container.Register(Component.For<IFormatterSelector>().ImplementedBy<FormatterSelector>().LifeStyle.Singleton);
container.Register(Component.For<IHttpControllerActivator>().ImplementedBy<DefaultHttpControllerActivator>().LifeStyle.Transient);
container.Register(Component.For<IHttpActionSelector>().ImplementedBy<ApiControllerActionSelector>().LifeStyle.Transient);
container.Register(Component.For<IActionValueBinder>().ImplementedBy<DefaultActionValueBinder>().LifeStyle.Transient);
container.Register(Component.For<IHttpActionInvoker>().ImplementedBy<ApiControllerActionInvoker>().LifeStyle.Transient);
container.Register(Component.For<System.Web.Http.Metadata.ModelMetadataProvider>().ImplementedBy<System.Web.Http.Metadata.Providers.CachedDataAnnotationsModelMetadataProvider>().LifeStyle.Transient);
container.Register(Component.For<HttpConfiguration>().Instance(configuration));
//Register all api controllers
container.Register(AllTypes.FromAssembly(assemblyToRegister)
.BasedOn<IHttpController>()
.Configure(registration => registration.Named(registration.ServiceType.Name.ToLower().Replace("controller", "")).LifeStyle.Transient));
//Register WindsorHttpControllerFactory with Service resolver
GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.ServiceResolver.SetService(typeof(IHttpControllerFactory), container.Resolve<IHttpControllerFactory>());
I had to create my own implementation of an ILogger you could use a stub version like bellow.
public class MyLogger : System.Web.Http.Common.ILogger
{
public void LogException(string category, TraceLevel level, Exception exception)
{
// Do some logging here eg. you could use log4net
}
public void Log(string category, TraceLevel level, Func<string> messageCallback)
{
// Do some logging here eg. you could use log4net
}
}
