Blazor Example #31

So Bad, That means I can use only Blazor Server if I want to utilize the AuthP authentication feature.

If you really want to use a API + WASM then you would need to build an authentication method in your WASM to use the enum Permissions. The claims will contain the permissions, so you would need to:

• Make the enum Permissions available for both your WebApi app and the the WASM
• You will need to create an authentication method in your WASM. If you can use ASP.NET Core Policy-based authorization in the WASM, then you need to copy over the code in the AuthPermissions.AspNetCore.PolicyCode and register the policy code with ASP.NET Core. If you can't use the Policy-based, then you need to build your own code.
• You would need to copy the code in the AuthPermissions.BaseCode.PermissionsCode folder into the WASM.

That's a lot of extra work, but if you want WebApi + WASM then you can do it.

@JonPSmith Thank you so much for this amazing library with examples! I would love to see a Blazor Server example, I'm having a very difficult time translating from its current MVC Views cshtml format to Blazor and Razor Pages, any help would be appreciated! :-) (I have the Entity Framework stuff migrated with no issues, but I have to admit, I'm rather sketchy at working with front end technologies.)

Hi @trevoralanbrooks,

The AuthP library provides the backend code/database only, but to make / test the backend code I provide various in this repo. Lots of people want a demo of using AuthP with Blazor (see issue #38), but its a LOT of work, so we haven't got a demo.

The consensus in issue #38 is you build a Web API backend and a Blazor WASM frontend. Also, be aware that the Blazor WASM frontend isn't secure, so you are relying on the login/authentication of the Web API backend to control user access.

PS. The MVC Views are only there to show what you can do - you should look at AuthP's services and features and work out what you need for your project. There is lots of documentation and lots of long article (articles are found to the top right in the docs).

Hi @JonPSmith,

I'm definitely working through it and making some painfully slow progress, just basically trying to reproduce your Example3 App as a Blazor Server App. I appreciate your response and will continue to push through it. Also, thank you for the links, the docs really help a ton! I think I've read almost every word and watched every video so far!

Thanks again,
Trevor
