How do I make the minimal listen to its IP?-CodePudding

I'm testing out minimal API in C# for a small home project. I have this small (!!!!) server code :-):

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder();

var app = builder.Build();

app.MapGet("/test", async () =>
{
    return 1;
});

app.Run();

Locally this works just fine. I can open a browser on localhost/test and get 1 in my browser window.

However, I put it on my server running on 192.168.1.91 and now I get connection timeout.

The server application outputs:

info: Microsoft.Hosting.Lifetime[14]
      Now listening on: http://localhost:5000

So its bound to localhost, should it not be bound to 0.0.0.0 or * or anything else? localhost is only for that machine?

CodePudding user response：

You have several options. Easiest one would be to just pass desired url to WebApplication.Run method:

app.Run("http:// :5000"); //listen on all interfaces

Also I recommend investigating the hosting options:
