I am trying to understand the UserManagerFactory middleware explained here per request lifetime management for usermanager.
I created this class which I am calling from the Startup Configuration method
public class CustomUserManagerProvider
{
public static CustomUserStore<CustomUser> CreateCustomUserStore()
{
return new CustomUserStore<CustomUser>(/*Need to inject dependencies here*/);
}
public static CustomUserManager CreateCustomUserManager(IdentityFactoryOptions<CustomUserManager> options,
IOwinContext context)
{
return new CustomUserManager(context.Get<CustomUserStore<CustomUser>>());
}
}
And the Startup Configuration
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
app.CreatePerOwinContext(CustomUserManagerProvider.CreateCustomUserStore);
app.CreatePerOwinContext<IngramUserManager>(CustomUserManagerProvider.CreateCustomUserManager);
////....Other things
}
Now, My CustomUserStore has some dependencies which I want to inject in the constructor.
The composition root of the IOC container knows how to resolve these dependencies.
How do I make the CustomUserManagerProvider
DI container aware(If that makes sense)...
Although this works
public static CustomUserStore<CustomUser> CreateCustomUserStore()
{
var dependency = DependencyResolver.Current.GetService<ISomeDependency>();
return new CustomUserStore<CustomUser>(dependency);
}
But, I was trying to avoid the service locator (anti)pattern. Is this my only option, Is this even right??
I am using Ninject.
Cant I just create a UserManager in requestScope in the composition root and inject into the controllers, wont that be the same thing?
In a web app, is CreatePerOwinContext same as creating InRequestScope?
