Blazor on server-side: using MongoDB for Identity management

Question

The Asp.Net Core Blazor template in VS 2019 can create a server-side app that will use the Microsoft SQL Server to manage the accounts and claims for identity management.

I would like to use MongoDB instead for account and claims management. This way I want to enable Blazor to use decorators and AuthorizeView to allow specific access for specific identities or claims.

I have scaffolded the Identity construct but I am confused how to proceed.

There is an open source Identity provider available called AspNetCore.Identity.Mongo.

Can I use this provider with blazor and if so how can I integrate this provider into my Blazor project?

Is there any project on github that will demonstrate the necessary adjustments in Blazor for custom identity providers?

Answer 1

I am looking at doing Similar. Blazor essentially uses Dotnet core, So solutions relevent to that can be implemented.

The relevant Nugetpackage is https://github.com/matteofabbri/AspNetCore.Identity.Mongo/blob/master/README.md For 3.0 use Nuget packages of the 6 series ( latest 6.7 )

Here is a github Example that I found which uses momgoDb as the database for Identity. https://github.com/AlejandroRuiz/CosmosDBTutorial

The Git Hub is the implementation of this Tutorial. enter link description here
