ASP.NET Identity 2.1 provider that uses MySql

MySql.AspNet.Identity

An ASP.NET Identity 2.1 provider for MySql

Purpose

ASP.NET MVC 5 shipped with a new Identity system (in the Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.Core package) in order to support both local login and remote logins via OpenID/OAuth, but only ships with an Entity Framework provider (Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework).

Features

• Supports ASP.NET Identity 2.1

• Contains the same IdentityUser class used by the EntityFramework provider in the MVC 5 project template.

• Contains the same IdentityRole class used by the EntityFramework provider in the MVC 5 project template.

• Supports additional profile properties on your application's user model.

• Provides MySqlUserStore implementation that implements the same interfaces as the EntityFramework version:

  • IUserStore,
  • IUserLoginStore,
  • IUserClaimStore,
  • IUserRoleStore,
  • IUserPasswordStore,
  • IUserSecurityStampStore,
  • IUserEmailStore,
  • IUserLockoutStore<TUser, string>,
  • IUserTwoFactorStore<TUser, string>,
  • IUserPhoneNumberStore

Instructions

For more detailed instructions read this blog post : ASP.NET Identity 2.1 implementation for MySQL

You will need to execute create script on your MySQL database which will create the tables required for the ASP.NET Identity provider.

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 MySql.AspNet.Identity.

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

3. Install-Package MySql.AspNet.Identity

4. In ~/Models/IdentityModels.cs:

   • Remove the namespaces:
     • Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework
     • System.Data.Entity

5. Install NuGet Package called MySql.AspNet.Identity

   • Add the namespace: MySql.AspNet.Identity This way ApplicationUser will inherit from another IdentityUser which resides in MySql.Asp.Net.Identity namespace
   • Remove the entire ApplicationDbContext class. You don't need that!

6. In ~/App_Start/Startup.Auth.cs

   • Remove app.CreatePerOwinContext(ApplicationDbContext.Create);

7. In ~/App_Start/IdentityConfig.cs

   • Remove the namespaces:
     • Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework
     • System.Data.Entity
   • In method public static ApplicationUserManager Create(IdentityFactoryOptions options, IOwinContext context) replace ApplicationUserManager with another which accepts MySqlUserStore like this:

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