Installation

Install the package from NuGet

Quick Start

Add a single line of code services.AddMiniAuth() in Startup, then run your project. Example:

public class Program
{
    public static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

        builder.Services.AddMiniAuth(); // <= ❗❗❗

        var app = builder.Build();
        app.Run();
    }
}

The default admin account is admin@mini-software.github.io with the password E7c4f679-f379-42bf-b547-684d456bc37f (remember to change the password). The admin page can be accessed at http(s)://yourhost/miniauth/index.html.

Add [Authorize] to categories or methods that require permission management, or role control [Authorize(Roles = "role")], return 401 status if not logged in, and return 403 status if no permission.

MiniAuth Cookie Identity

MiniAuth is preset as a single Coookie Based identity, please change to JWT, etc. Auth for front-end and back-end separation projects.

MiniAuth JWT Identity

Setting AuthenticationType = BearerJwt

builder.Services.AddMiniAuth(options:(options) =>
{
    options.AuthenticationType = MiniAuthOptions.AuthType.BearerJwt;
});

Please remember to set new JWT Security Key, e.g.

builder.Services.AddMiniAuth(options: (options) =>
{
    options.JWTKey = new SymmetricSecurityKey(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("6ee3edbf-488e-4484-9c2c-e3ffa6dcbc09"));
});

Getting token

Frontend Javascript XHR example

var data = JSON.stringify({
  "username": "admin@mini-software.github.io",
  "password": "E7c4f679-f379-42bf-b547-684d456bc37f",
  "remember": false
});
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.withCredentials = true;
xhr.addEventListener("readystatechange", function() {
  if(this.readyState === 4) {
    console.log(this.responseText);
  }
});
xhr.open("POST", "http://yourhost/miniauth/login");
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
xhr.send(data);

response

{
    "ok": true,
    "code": 200,
    "message": null,
    "data": {
        "tokenType": "Bearer",
        "accessToken": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJuYW1laWQiOiIxZTIxOGY4My1iZjE3LTRhY2YtODhmOS1iOTQ3NjhjOWUwMGMiLCJuYW1lIjoiYWRtaW5AbWluaS1zb2Z0d2FyZS5naXRodWIuaW8iLCJyb2xlIjoibWluaWF1dGgtYWRtaW4iLCJzdWIiOiJhZG1pbkBtaW5pLXNvZnR3YXJlLmdpdGh1Yi5pbyIsIm5iZiI6MTcxODIwNDg5NSwiZXhwIjoxNzE4MjA1Nzk1LCJpYXQiOjE3MTgyMDQ4OTUsImlzcyI6Ik1pbmlBdXRoIn0._-DQ_rcbeju8_nrK2lD5we0rre04_xdDZNF6NhM0Rg0",
        "expiresIn": 900
    }
}

Save the accessToken in localstorage or a cookie. When calling your [Authorize] API, set the Header Authorization to Bearer + space + accessToken, and the system will automatically verify it.

Example:

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.withCredentials = true;
xhr.addEventListener("readystatechange", function() {
  if(this.readyState === 4) {
    console.log(this.responseText);
  }
});
xhr.open("GET", "http://yourhost:5014/your/api");
xhr.setRequestHeader("Authorization", "Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJuYW1laWQiOiIxZTIxOGY4My1iZjE3LTRhY2YtODhmOS1iOTQ3NjhjOWUwMGMiLCJuYW1lIjoiYWRtaW5AbWluaS1zb2Z0d2FyZS5naXRodWIuaW8iLCJyb2xlIjoibWluaWF1dGgtYWRtaW4iLCJzdWIiOiJhZG1pbkBtaW5pLXNvZnR3YXJlLmdpdGh1Yi5pbyIsIm5iZiI6MTcxODIwNDg5NSwiZXhwIjoxNzE4MjA1Nzk1LCJpYXQiOjE3MTgyMDQ4OTUsImlzcyI6Ik1pbmlBdXRoIn0._-DQ_rcbeju8_nrK2lD5we0rre04_xdDZNF6NhM0Rg0");
xhr.send();

Set Expiration Time

options.TokenExpiresIn = 30 * 60; 

The unit is in seconds, with a default setting of 30 minutes. Additionally, note that .NET JWT ClockSkew in JwtBearerOptions is preset to add an extra 5 minutes reason.

Refresh Token API (JWT)

API : /MiniAuth/refreshToken Body:

{
   "refreshToken":"eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxZTIxOGY4My1iZjE3LTRhY2YtODhmOS1iOTQ3NjhjOWUwMGMiLCJuYmYiOjE3MTg1MjIxOTEsImV4cCI6MTcxODUyMzk5MSwiaWF0IjoxNzE4NTIyMTkxLCJpc3MiOiJNaW5pQXV0aCJ9.HYBWrM2suDiM4OG0FSlXhNgktZIG9l3ufmIAnwZiIoU"
}

Header:

Authorization:Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJuYW1lIjoiYWRtaW5AbWluaS1zb2Z0d2FyZS5naXRodWIuaW8iLCJyb2xlIjoibWluaWF1dGgtYWRtaW4iLCJzdWIiOiIxZTIxOGY4My1iZjE3LTRhY2YtODhmOS1iOTQ3NjhjOWUwMGMiLCJuYmYiOjE3MTg1MjIxOTEsImV4cCI6MTcxODUyNTc5MSwiaWF0IjoxNzE4NTIyMTkxLCJpc3MiOiJNaW5pQXV0aCJ9.rgAgsziAdLqOC9NYra-M9WQl8BJ99sRdfzRKNkMz9dk

The expiration time is set to MiniAuthOptions.TokenExpiresIn / 2, with a default of 30 minutes.

Settings, Options, Customization

Default Mode

  • The default mode of MiniAuth is centralized user management by IT Admins. Operations such as user registration and password reset require an admin account with the predefined role = miniauth-admin.

Disable MiniAuth Login

If you only want to use your own login logic, pages, and APIs, you can specify the login path and disable the MiniAuth login switch.

// Place before service registration 
builder.Services.AddMiniAuth(options: (options) =>
{
    options.LoginPath = "/Identity/Account/Login";
    options.DisableMiniAuthLogin = true;
});

Customize Default SQLite Connection String

builder.Services.AddMiniAuth(options: (options) =>
{
    options.SqliteConnectionString = "Data Source=miniauth_identity.db";
});

Custom Database, Users, and Roles

MiniAuth is designed to work seamlessly with SQLite EF Core, IdentityUser, and IdentityRole by default. If you need to switch, please specify different databases and your own user and role classes using generics in app.UseMiniAuth.

app.UseMiniAuth<YourDbContext, YourIdentityUser, YourIdentityRole>();

Login, User Authentication

For non-ApiController, the default login redirection is to the login.html page (determined by checking if Headers["X-Requested-With"] == "XMLHttpRequest" or the presence of the ApiControllerAttribute). Controllers marked as ApiController do not redirect to a login page by default; instead, they return a 401 status code.

Custom Frontend

  • The admin dashboard frontend is located in /src/Frontend_Identity and primarily uses Vue3 + Vite. Running npm run build will update the miniauth UI.
  • If you don't want to use the default miniauth login page, MVC allows you to use the scaffolded Login.cshtml provided by identity, or you can modify the login.html, js, and css files in the miniauth frontend.

Custom Route Prefix

builder.Services.AddMiniAuth(options: (options) =>
{
    options.RoutePrefix = "YourName";
});

The default RoutePrefix is MiniAuth.

Login API (JWT)

API: /MiniAuth/login

Body:

{
   "username":"admin@mini-software.github.io",
   "password":"E7c4f679-f379-42bf-b547-684d456bc37f",
   "remember":false
}

Response:

{
    "ok": true,
    "code": 200,
    "message": null,
    "data": {
        "tokenType": "Bearer",
        "accessToken": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJuYW1lIjoiYWRtaW5AbWluaS1zb2Z0d2FyZS5naXRodWIuaW8iLCJyb2xlIjoibWluaWF1dGgtYWRtaW4iLCJzdWIiOiIxZTIxOGY4My1iZjE3LTRhY2YtODhmOS1iOTQ3NjhjOWUwMGMiLCJuYmYiOjE3MTg1MjIxOTEsImV4cCI6MTcxODUyNTc5MSwiaWF0IjoxNzE4NTIyMTkxLCJpc3MiOiJNaW5pQXV0aCJ9.rgAgsziAdLqOC9NYra-M9WQl8BJ99sRdfzRKNkMz9dk",
