Hosting in a Windows Service is available in an upcoming version.

  1. Obtain the installation resources of Tax Balance. Usually this is an archive with the file extension (.nupkg).

  2. Extract the archive to a desired location on the file system of the machine that will host Tax Balance. We will refer to that location as <tax-balance-install-directory>.

  3. Use PowerShell (Version 6 or later) to register a service. From an administrative PowerShell command shell execute the following command:

    New-Service
      -Name "Tax Balance"
      -BinaryPathName "<tax-balance-install-directory>\AMANA.SmartTaxBalance.Web.Api.exe"
      -Credential "<tax-balance-user>"
      -Description "Tax Balance Web Application"
      -Description "Tax Balance" 
      -StartupType Automatic

    Replacing <tax-balance-install-directory> with the location of the exctracted installation resources.
    Replacing <tax-balance-user> with a Service user account, e.g., Local Service Account or a Custom domain account.

  5. Additional configuration steps may be required to make Tax Balance work as a Windows service. As per default, Tax Balance Server will listen to https://localhost:443/. To change this, open the appsettings.json file located at <tax-balance-install-directory> and change the value of the key Urls to a desired listening address.

  6. Start the service with the following PowerShell 6 command:
