Here's the EXACT solution I came into, based on answers inside this thread:
Static files (like additional javascript files) can be served within same host with configuration of below. Scripts will be available at http://{yourhost}/scripts/{scriptName} when placed inside \Scripts folder iniside solution ('copy if newer' has to be set for 'Copy To Output Directory' for each of the files).
public class Startup
{
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
// Branch the pipeline here for requests that start with "/signalr"
app.Map("/signalr", map =>
{
// Setup the CORS middleware to run before SignalR.
// By default this will allow all origins. You can
// configure the set of origins and/or http verbs by
// providing a cors options with a different policy.
map.UseCors(CorsOptions.AllowAll);
var hubConfiguration = new HubConfiguration
{
// You can enable JSONP by uncommenting line below.
// JSONP requests are insecure but some older browsers (and some
// versions of IE) require JSONP to work cross domain
// EnableJSONP = true
};
// Run the SignalR pipeline. We're not using MapSignalR
// since this branch already runs under the "/signalr"
// path.
map.RunSignalR(hubConfiguration);
});
// Serving javascript libraries required for client as static content from Scripts folder
app.UseStaticFiles(new StaticFileOptions() {
RequestPath = new PathString("/scripts"),
FileSystem = new PhysicalFileSystem(@".\Scripts"),
});
}
}
