Not really maintaining this anymore, see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/security/?view=aspnetcore-3.1 for the official ASP.NET Core Blazor authentication and authorization. It's quite comprehensive

ASP.NET Core Blazor (Server side) Authentication Sample

This sample shows some more "complex" and "real world" scenarios for handling Authentication and Authorization with ASP.NET Core server side Blazor.

The idea was to organize the sample a bit more like a real app, and just go a tiny step further than the built in template that comes in the box.

It's a work in progress... 🤷‍♂️

Structure

The app is comprised of few "parts". The App part and the Account part, plus a few other things.

Account part

The Account part contains pages to register and and sign in etc.

A little note is the SignIn page where there is a little extra hacky step as you cannot set cookies from Blazor easily. See for yourself 🤣

App part

In the App you need to be authenticated. This was done by adding @attribute [Authorize] to _Imports.razor in the App/Pages so all pages in that folder require authorization.

There is also a Sidebar menu that uses an AuthorizeView to trigger and "administrator" section of the menu based on roles.

Data

When started the app sets up some test users, see Startup.cs for those.

Unit tests

There is a few tests of some of the custom components as I also wanted to explore Unit Testing of Blazor Components.

The tests are using a slightly modified version of Steve Sanderson's BlazorUnitTestingPrototype. See my fork here. Also see Steve's blog post about the testing prototype.

Ideas

• Would like to see if one could make a component to "generalize" some of the code around Resource-based authorization
• Explore some more testing, I think Steve's prototype is a nice foundation
