RavenDB.AspNet.Identity 2.0.0

RavenDB.AspNet.Identity

RavenDB identity provider for ASP.NET MVC 5+ and Web API 2+. (Looking for .NET Core identity provider for RavenDB? Check out our sister project, RavenDB.Identity.)

We're on NuGet as RavenDB.AspNet.Identity.

Instructions

These instructions assume you know how to set up RavenDB within an MVC application.

1. Create a new ASP.NET MVC 5 project, choosing the Individual User Accounts authentication type.

2. Remove the Entity Framework packages and replace with RavenDB Identity:

   Uninstall-Package Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework Uninstall-Package EntityFramework Install-Package RavenDB.AspNet.Identity

3. In ~/Models/IdentityModels.cs:

   • Remove the namespace: Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework
   • Add the namespace: Raven.AspNet.Identity
   • Remove the entire ApplicationDbContext class. You don't need that!

4. In ~/App_Start/IdentityConfig.cs

   • Update the ApplicationUserManager.Create method to get the Raven document session.

   public static ApplicationUserManager Create(IdentityFactoryOptions<ApplicationUserManager> options, IOwinContext context) 
    {
    	// Update this line to pass in the Raven document session:
    	var manager = new ApplicationUserManager(new UserStore<ApplicationUser>(context.Get<IAsyncDocumentSession>()));
    	...
    }
   

5. In ~/App_Start/Startup.Auth.cs:

   • Remove the Entity framework context and add a RavenDB context:

    // Old: app.CreatePerOwinContext(ApplicationDbContext.Create);
    // New. The raven variable is your Raven DocumentStore singleton.
    app.CreatePerOwinContext(() => raven.OpenAsyncSession());
   

6. Add a RavenController base class.

   • This will save changes on the document session if the controller action executed successfully.
   • You can view the RavenController.cs sample.

7. Make AccountController.cs inherit from RavenController

    public class AccountController : RavenController
    {
    	...
    }
