AspNetCore.Security.CAS 2.0.1

AspNetCore.Security.CAS

AspNet.Security.CAS is an ASP.NET Core 1/MVC 6 authentication provider for CAS.

This implimentation is based upon on Noel Bundick's Owin.Security.CAS provider.

Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.OAuth and Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.Twitter were used as structural references.

Usage

1. Install the NuGet package

   PM> Install-Package AspNet.Security.CAS

2. Open Startup.cs

3. Paste the following code below // Uncomment the following lines to enable logging in with third party login providers

   app.UseCasAuthentication(new CasOptions
   {
       CasServerUrlBase = "https://your.cas.server.com/cas"
   });
   

CasOptions

At a minmum, the CasOptions object needs to have the CasServerUrlBase property set to the URL to your CAS server.

These options extend the RemoteAuthenticationOptions class.

Properties

• CasServerUrlBase - The base url of the CAS server. Required.

• TicketValidator - Gets or sets the ICasTicketValidator used to validate tickets from CAS. Default: Cas2TicketValidator

• Caption - Get or sets the text that the user can display on a sign in user interface. Default: "CAS".

• SignInAsAuthenticationType - Gets or sets the name of another authentication middleware which will be responsible for actually issuing a user ClaimsIdentity.

• StateDataFormat - Gets or sets the type used to secure data handled by the middleware.

• NameClaimType - If set, and using the CAS 2 payload, the ticket validator will set the NameClaimType to the specified CAS attribute rather than using the default Name claim.

• NameIdentifierAttribute - If set, and using the CAS 2 payload, the ticket validator use the specified CAS attribute as the NameIdentifier claim, which is used to associate external logins.

Inherited Properties

• BackchannelTimeout - Gets or sets timeout value in milliseconds for back channel communications with CAS. Default: 60s

• HttpMessageHandler - The HttpMessageHandler used to communicate with CAS.

• CallbackPath - The request path within the application's base path where the user-agent will be returned. The middleware will process this request when it arrives.

• SignInScheme - Gets or sets the authentication scheme corresponding to the middleware responsible of persisting user's identity after a successful authentication. This value typically corresponds to a cookie middleware registered in the Startup class. When omitted, SharedAuthenticationOptions.SignInScheme is used as a fallback value.
