ViceSharp.Host

The composition boundary of ViceSharp: it owns emulator sessions and exposes them over a versioned gRPC host surface.

What it is

ViceSharp.Host is the hosting layer of ViceSharp, a C#/.NET 10 port of the VICE Commodore 64 emulator. It wires the core, chips, architectures, monitor, and protocol libraries into runnable emulator sessions and owns their lifecycle: media capture, video frames, input, settings, snapshots, and diagnostics. It surfaces these as ASP.NET Core gRPC services (Grpc.AspNetCore with server reflection), so UI shells talk to the host, never to core devices directly.

Install

dotnet add package ViceSharp.Host

Usage

Register the host services and map their gRPC endpoints in an ASP.NET Core app:

using ViceSharp.Host.Services;

builder.Services.AddViceSharpGrpcHost();

var app = builder.Build();
app.MapViceSharpGrpcHost();
app.Run();

AddViceSharpGrpcHost registers IEmulatorHost plus the media, video, input, settings, monitor, snapshot, capture, and diagnostics services and the host-owned emulation worker; MapViceSharpGrpcHost publishes their gRPC endpoints.

Notes

ViceSharp ships no Commodore ROMs. Point VICESHARP_ROM_PATH at a VICE data root (or put x64sc on PATH) so sessions can load KERNAL, BASIC, and character ROMs.
