Do I need metadata when registering Sitelet from referenced library to Owin host?
websharpersiteletowin

When using a sitelet from a referenced project with a Owin host, do I need to pass any metadata?

I am trying to register a sitelet in my Owin host but when I navigate to the page, the special placeholders (scripts/meta) don't get replaced.

And without the meta, all my divs remain placeholder like this <div id="ws1098461648"></div>.

Currently I have a Websharper project (A) which contains my sitelet, it is configured to be bundled. And I have a second project which reference (A) and register the sitelet in an Owin host using the same way the Selfhost template does it:

let bin = @"C:\Projects\Host\MySitelet"
appB.UseStaticFiles(StaticFileOptions(FileSystem = PhysicalFileSystem(bin))) |> ignore
appB.UseSitelet(bin, MySitelet.Site.Main, binDirectory = bin) |> ignore

What am I doing wrong?

.

My binDirectory was setup wrongly. I was setting it to point to the root instead of the bin. Therefore, no metadata could be found. After changing it to point to the bin folder with the compiled dlls, it works fine.

let root = @"C:\Projects\Host\MySitelet"
let bin = @"C:\Projects\Host\Host\bin\Debug"
appB.UseStaticFiles(StaticFileOptions(FileSystem = PhysicalFileSystem(root))) |> ignore
appB.UseSitelet(root, Site.sitelet, binDirectory = bin) |> ignore
