- Updated client functions in other posts below, to match the above change.
2024-05-06:
- Simpler to use JSON. See examples near the bottom.

Hi Gintaras, Although you have explained it clearly.Can you be more specific about what scenarios this script can play a role in?Because I know too little, but I'm very interested. Thank you!
#3
Roles.

To run C# functions or scripts on the server computer from other programs or scripts that can send HTTP requests. For example from curl, QM, AutoHotkey, PowerAutomate, UiPath. It's like a simple RPC (remote procedure call). You specify URL, function name, parameters, and receive a response text. I'll post some examples later.

To run C# functions or scripts on the server computer from other computers on local network. Also from computers, smartphones etc from anywhere on the internet, although probably will need some software to enable it.

This function compiles and executes C# code sent by clients.

Setup

1. Get this C# compiler.
2. Create folder "@HTTP server". Can be any name with @ prefix.
3. Move the HTTP server script into the new folder. Let it always be the first file in the folder.
4. Add this class file to the folder:

    ///
<remarks>
    ///
Let clients pass these POST fields or GET parameters:
    /// <br/>• code - C# code. In code can be used everything from .NET, Au.dll and _r libraries.
    /// <br/>• fun (optional) - a function defined in the C# code, like "Class1.Function1".
    /// <br/>• _c (optional) - C# files to compile together, like "file1.cs|file2.cs". If does not end with ".cs" - C# code to compile together as separate file. More info in CsScript.Compile documentation. The files must be on the server's computer.
    /// <br/>• _r (optional) - additional reference assemblies, like "file1.dll|file2.dll". More info in CsScript.Compile documentation. The files must be on the server's computer.
    /// <br/>• Names starts with _ - not used. Reserved.
    /// <br/>• Other - function arguments (if used fun) or values for the args array.
    /// <para>
    ///
If fun used, creates a library assembly and calls the function, which must be public static, with zero or more parameters of type string, int, bool and other types that implement IConvertible. Clients must use these parameter names, in any order, and can omit optionals.
    /// If fun omitted or empty, creates an executable assembly and calls the entry point (top-level statements or Main). Parameter values are in the args variable (string[]). Clients can use any parameter names, they are ignored.
    /// </para>
    ///
Slow when used the first time in the server process, because loads and JIT-compiles the C# compiler. Afterwards should be ~100 ms, depending on computer speed and antivirus program. Always compiles, does not use caching.

After compiling a large amount of C# code, the process occupies too much memory (800M or more). How can it be optimized?
#10
Is it a single compilation with large code? Or many compilations with normal amount of code?

If many, the most likely reason is - cannot unload temporary memory assemblies. It depends on your C# code.

To see whether assemblies are unloaded:
Install LA 1.0.1 (not 1.0.0).
Debug-run the HTTP server script.
In the debug options menu (the last toolbar button) check "Print module loaded/unloaded".
Run your C# codes many times.
Should print "Module loaded: script" each time, and "Module unloaded: script" sometimes randomly.
If prints only "loaded" but no "unloaded", need to edit your codes. More info:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet...oadability

Examples:
 
Code:
Copy      Help
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
    //this code ic correct. The process never eats more than 60 MB.
    string code = """class C { public static int Add(int a, int b=0){return a+b;} }""";
    
    //this code creates a "cannot unload assembly" condition. The process eats ~400 MB after 100 runs.
    //string code = """class C { public static int Add(int a, int b=0){ var m = new System.Drawing.Bitmap(1000, 1000); Au.timer2.after(999999, _ => { m.Dispose(); }); return a+b;} }""";
    
    //another example of code that creates a "cannot unload assembly" condition. The process eats ~400 MB after 100 runs.
    //string code = """class C { public static int Add(int a, int b=0){ var m = new System.Drawing.Bitmap(1000, 1000); System.Runtime.InteropServices.GCHandle.Alloc(m); return a+b;} }""";

    
    print.it(LaHttp.CallS("Code", $"code={code}", "fun=C.Add", $"a={i}", "b=3"));
}

Thank you for the prompt.
I'm using HTTP to call LA a third-party DLL in QM, which seems a bit complex.
Currently, I'm using a third-party utility to reduce memory usage, and it's effective.
#12
Spire.Doc.dll is not unloadable. Therefore cannot avoid this memory leak when using it like this. Use it in normal way: place the C# code in a function in LA, and just call the function from QM.
#13
Thank you, the code works fine in LA

About #1 code:

How to access this service via HTTPS? My default HTTPS port(443) is blocked, so I have to use a different port.
The image below shows the HTTPS settings in a certain software, where I can customize the port number and select a certificate. I can access the services in the software through the settings shown in this image.

(I have already purchased a domain name and applied for an SSL certificate for it. I have also pointed the domain name to the public IP address of this computer.)
https://i.ibb.co/RzccB8F/886.png

The HTTP request link is no longer usable in some instant messaging software. When I click on the link, there's no response, or it prompts me to use HTTPS instead.
So, now I need to access LA HTTP server using HTTPS . Thanks in advance for any advice and assistance.

Since, as the docs say,
Quote:This server does not support https (secure connections)
you could try some of the tunneling solutions listed here:
https://github.com/anderspitman/awesome-tunneling
The page has lots of very useful information as well as a solution you might be able to use.

Thanks for your help, I'm considering using Nginx for implementation.

Nginx is lightweight. It would be great if someone could provide operational guidance for its use in LA, similar to the one below.

Can you create a JSON return type? GPT-3.5's API calls only support returning JSON strings.
Currently, I'm piecing together JSON strings in the following way,
 
Code:
Copy      Help
string jsonPath = $$"""
{
    "Path": "D:\{{fileName}}.pdf"
}
""";
        //print.it(jsonPath);
        return jsonPath;

but it seems to be missing some necessary properties,
such as code, success, and data (the function's return value seems like it should become part of the data).
Is there any simpler solution?

It would be great if custom functions could automatically generate API configuration files that comply with OpenAPI 3.0.

Use function SetContentJson. Example - function Json. Another example (not tested):

Code:
Copy      Help
    public static void GetFilePath(RFilename j, HSResponse r) {
        r.SetContentJson(new { Path = $"D:\\{j.FileName}.pdf" }); //return JSON
    }
    public record RFilename(string FileName);
#21
Thank you.
Reference-type return values are not supported when calling APIs in GPTs or agents
#22
The HTTP server returns JSON.

I also updated the server code. Now you can return JSON even easier. Example:
Code:
Copy      Help
    [return: JSON]
    public static object GetFilePath(RFilename j) => new { Path = $"D:\\{j.FileName}.pdf" };
    public record RFilename(string FileName);
#23
The following is the returned result. Is the output in red incorrect? Should double quotation marks be added?  

{"i":4,"s":"example"}
R1 { i = 4, s = example } // "example"
#24
The first line is what is returned when the function is with [return: JSON].
The second line is what is returned when the function is without [return: JSON].
#25
You're right, thank you.
I've discovered the power of print.it.
#26
#24 The returned paths sometimes contain Unicode characters(on GPTs or Agent), for example:
filePath='C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\\u4F60\u597D.docx'
I'm not sure where the problem lies.
#27
Why it's a problem?

It is how JsonSerializer.Serialize works by default. But can be changed.

Code:
Copy      Help
using System.Text.Json;
print.it(JsonSerializer.Serialize(new { text = "ąč" }));
print.it(JsonSerializer.Serialize(new { text = "ąč" }, new JsonSerializerOptions(JsonSerializerDefaults.Web) { Encoder = System.Text.Encodings.Web.JavaScriptEncoder.UnsafeRelaxedJsonEscaping }));
#28
I'm a bit confused.
I use PowerShell code to send a GET request and get the encoding results I want.
However, when I send a GET request on GPTs, the returned results are encoded in Unicode.
Do I need to put the code from #29 into the HTTP Server code?
#29
Yes. Insert { Encoder = System.Text.Encodings.Web.JavaScriptEncoder.UnsafeRelaxedJsonEscaping } after (JsonSerializerDefaults.Web).
#30
Thank you!
