Asp.Net Core 6.0 Login Page
You now fully implemented the Web Application with Sign-In and Sign-Up using Identity in ASP.NET Core 3.1. This article will explain how we can use Identity for registration, login, and sign-out in our Web Application with ASP.NET Core and using the Entity Framework. In this article, we will walk through the steps needed to add authentication and authorization using ASP.NET Core Identity, a built-in membership system for ASP.NET Core.
In this post, we went over almost everything that you need to know about implementing custom user management in ASP.NET Core MVC using Identity. We are going to start off by creating a new ASP.NET Core 3.1 MVC project, with the authenication mode selected as individual user accounts. Let us log in using the user that we created in the previous chapter, providing a user name and password, and checking the Remember me box. To start, we will need a new ViewModel to retrieve login data, since login is quite different than sign up.
In a new MVC view page, we have set the title of the page to Login, and then have the form which will be posted in AccountLogin action. If a user is not signed in, and we have an anonymous user, then we have to display a link that goes to AccountController, in particular, the Login action, and can show the text Login. For a user to be able to supply credentials, our app needs a Login page that has a series of fields that our users will be able to interact with. Our primary focus will be on creating a login page and setting up a set of actions for validating input credentials.
Depending on the screen size, you may have to choose a navigation toggle button in order to see both Sign Up and Sign In links. You can go further than that, and style Register, Logout, and more pages as part of your Asp.net Identity.
Inside of the Identity area, you will find Pages rather than Views, since scaffold files are generated using ASP.NET Cores Razor Pages framework. Second, we have to enable support for Razor pages, since the scaffold files that we overwrote are using the Razor pages framework in ASP.NET Core.
In this article, I am using ADO.NET for the database-related information, so we have to create database access layer classes within model folder (db.cs) for performing database-related operations. If you are unfamiliar with ASP.NET MVC framework, you can reference this post on the file architecture of ASP.NET MVC, or you can ask questions in comments section. In this article, we learned how to build REST API using.Net 6.0, ASP.NET Core, performing basic CRUD operations, creating an Access Token, and protecting our API.
Hopefully, I believe that this article has provided some helpful insights into implementing the identity authentication of ASP.NET Core into your existing Blazor Server app. In this tutorial, we are going to walk through a sample.NET 6.0 API which supports user registration, sign-in using JWT Authentication, and CRUD operations for users. This example shows you how to allow users to log in using their work, school, or personal Microsoft Account using an ASP.NET Core 6.0 project created in the previous page. This article will use the.NET 6 CLI for building and running the app, but you may choose to use Visual Studio 2022 if you would like.
We can create any Net6 app using Visual Studio 2022 or Visual Studio Code (using the.NET CLI commands). To use ASP.NET Core Identity and build Identity Default Database Schema, we must extend DBContext Class to use IdentityDBContext. Once done, you will need to update the AppDbContext Class to inherit IdentityDbContext from IdentityUser, a basic Entity Framework Core class used with Identity. First, we are going to create a database called jwtAuthentication, or we could use any name, and create two tables, UserInfo and Employee.
