Using examples from http://www.asp.net/identity I've gotten this far. The RoleManager
works flawlessly and I treat the UserManager
the same. I think everything is correct, but I can't seem to new up a UserManager
correctly in a controller. What is wrong? At one point, I was successfully getting the UserManager
to work but was getting an EntityValidationError
saying "Id is required" when creating a new user with UserManager.Create(user, password);
as posted in this question UserManager.Create(user, password) thowing EntityValidationError saying Id is required?
So after some time of hit and miss, I've created everything like the following but am getting a compile-time error on new ApplicationUserManager(new ApplicationUserStore(new MyAppDb()))
saying, "The best overloaded method match for 'MyApp.Models.ApplicationUserManager.ApplicationUserManager(Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.IUserStore)' has some invalid arguments" when trying to create the 'UserManager' in my controller:
Here is the controller:
namespace MyApp.Controllers
{
[Authorize]
public class AccountController : BaseController
{
public AccountController()
: this(new ApplicationUserManager(new ApplicationUserStore(new MyAppDb())))
{
}
public AccountController(ApplicationUserManager userManager)
{
UserManager = userManager;
}
public ApplicationUserManager UserManager { get; private set; }
...
}
Here is the model:
namespace MyApp.Models
{
public class ApplicationUser : IdentityUser<string, ApplicationUserLogin, ApplicationUserRole, ApplicationUserClaim>
{
[Required]
[StringLength(50)]
public string FirstName { get; set; }
[Required]
[StringLength(50)]
public string LastName { get; set; }
public async Task<ClaimsIdentity> GenerateUserIdentityAsync(UserManager<ApplicationUser> manager)
{
// Note the authenticationType must match the one defined in CookieAuthenticationOptions.AuthenticationType
var userIdentity = await manager.CreateIdentityAsync(this, DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ApplicationCookie);
// Add custom user claims here
return userIdentity;
}
}
public class ApplicationUserLogin : IdentityUserLogin<string>
{
}
public class ApplicationUserClaim : IdentityUserClaim<string>
{
}
public class ApplicationUserRole : IdentityUserRole<string>
{
}
public class ApplicationRole : IdentityRole<string, ApplicationUserRole>
{
[Required]
[StringLength(50)]
public string ProperName { get; set; }
[Required]
public string Description { get; set; }
}
public class MyAppDb : IdentityDbContext<ApplicationUser, ApplicationRole, string, ApplicationUserLogin, ApplicationUserRole, ApplicationUserClaim>
{
public MyAppDb()
: base("MyAppDb")
{
}
}
public class ApplicationUserManager : UserManager<ApplicationUser>
{
public ApplicationUserManager(IUserStore<ApplicationUser> store)
: base(store)
{
this.PasswordValidator = (IIdentityValidator<string>)new MinimumLengthValidator(8);
this.UserValidator = new UserValidator<ApplicationUser>(this) { AllowOnlyAlphanumericUserNames = false, RequireUniqueEmail = true };
}
}
public class ApplicationUserStore : UserStore<ApplicationUser, ApplicationRole, string, ApplicationUserLogin, ApplicationUserRole, ApplicationUserClaim>
{
public ApplicationUserStore(MyAppDb context)
: base(context)
{
}
public override async Task CreateAsync(ApplicationUser user)
{
await base.CreateAsync(user);
}
}
public class ApplicationRoleStore : RoleStore<ApplicationRole, string, ApplicationUserRole>
{
public ApplicationRoleStore(MyAppDb context)
: base(context)
{
}
}
public class ApplicationRoleManager : RoleManager<ApplicationRole>
{
public ApplicationRoleManager(IRoleStore<ApplicationRole, string> store)
: base(store)
{
}
}
}
UPDATE: I can get the error to go away on the creation of the UserManager
by changing this:
public class ApplicationUserManager : UserManager<ApplicationUser>
{
public ApplicationUserManager(IUserStore<ApplicationUser> store)
: base(store)
{
this.PasswordValidator = (IIdentityValidator<string>)new MinimumLengthValidator(8);
this.UserValidator = new UserValidator<ApplicationUser>(this) { AllowOnlyAlphanumericUserNames = false, RequireUniqueEmail = true };
}
}
to this:
public class ApplicationUserManager : UserManager<ApplicationUser>
{
public ApplicationUserManager(IUserStore<ApplicationUser, string> store)
: base(store)
{
this.PasswordValidator = (IIdentityValidator<string>)new MinimumLengthValidator(8);
this.UserValidator = new UserValidator<ApplicationUser>(this) { AllowOnlyAlphanumericUserNames = false, RequireUniqueEmail = true };
}
}
notice I just added , string
, but it then puts the error "The best overloaded method match for "Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.UserMaager.UserManager(Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.IUserStore)' has some invalid arguments" on base(store)
.
UPDATE 2: I changed this:
public class ApplicationUserManager : UserManager<ApplicationUser>
{
public ApplicationUserManager(IUserStore<ApplicationUser, string> store)
...
}
to this:
public class ApplicationUserManager : UserManager<ApplicationUser, string>
{
public ApplicationUserManager(IUserStore<ApplicationUser, string> store)
...
}
Notice the ' string
in public class ApplicationUserManager : UserManager<ApplicationUser, string>
. But now, guess what? You guessed it--back to this issue: UserManager.Create(user, password) thowing EntityValidationError saying Id is required?
What am I missing?
