RavenDB identity provider for ASP.NET MVC 5+ and Web API 2+. (Looking for .NET Core identity provider for RavenDB? Check out our sister project, RavenDB.Identity.)

We're on NuGet as RavenDB.AspNet.Identity.

Instructions

1. Create a new ASP.NET MVC 5 project, choosing the Individual User Accounts authentication type.

2. Remove the Entity Framework packages and replace with RavenDB Identity:

   • Uninstall-Package Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework
   • Uninstall-Package EntityFramework
   • Install-Package RavenDB.AspNet.Identity

3. In ~/Models/IdentityModels.cs:

   • Remove the namespace: Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework
   • Add the namespace: Raven.AspNet.Identity
   • Remove the entire ApplicationDbContext class. You don't need that!

4. In ~/App_Start/IdentityConfig.cs

   • Update the ApplicationUserManager.Create method to get the Raven document session.

   public static ApplicationUserManager Create(IdentityFactoryOptions<ApplicationUserManager> options, IOwinContext context) 
   {
   	var manager = new ApplicationUserManager(new UserStore<ApplicationUser>(context.Get<IAsyncDocumentSession>()));
   	...
   }
   

5. In ~/App_Start/Startup.Auth.cs:

   • Remove the Entity framework context and add a RavenDB context:

   // Old: app.CreatePerOwinContext(ApplicationDbContext.Create);
   // New. The raven variable is your Raven DocumentStore singleton.
   app.CreatePerOwinContext(() => raven.OpenAsyncSession());
   

6. Add a RavenController.cs class.

   • This will save changes on the document session if the controller action executed successfully.
   • You can view the RavenController.cs sample.

7. Make AccountController.cs inherit from RavenController

   public class AccountController : RavenController
   {
   	...
   }
