What is the best method INNER JOIN for Users?

[Delgeç]

Hi guys

I have a tiny question for you.

IApplicationDbContext interface doesn't inherite IdentityDbContext.
How to INNER JOIN a related table with the users table?

Example:

var query = from c in _context.Comments
            join u in _context.Users on c.UserId equals u.Id
            where c.ListingId == request.ListingId && c.Status == CommentStatus.Published
            orderby c.Id descending
            select new CommentsVm
            {
                Id = c.Id,
                Body = c.Body,
                CreatedAt = c.CreatedAt,
                Username = u.UserName,
                PhotoURL= u.PhotoURL
            };

Hello!

I'm not from the Clean Architecture team, but I might be able to provide some insight.

If you want to perform an INNER JOIN with the users table in your context where IApplicationDbContext does not inherit from IdentityDbContext, you can refer directly to the table that contains user information. Typically, this table is named AspNetUsers.

Alternatively, you can utilize the IdentityService.cs that is already implemented in the template.
