Every time I close the browser I need to log in again into this app. It is developed in .NET Core 2.0. I'm trying to let it logged in, like every other regular site.
I checked this post that may be useful, but since the code is quite different from this application I decided to create this post.
This is my security code:
using Newtonsoft.Json;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Security.Claims;
using System.Security.Principal;
using System.Text;
namespace Petito.Common
{
public interface IActivityContext
{
string ActivityID { get; }
IPrincipal User { get; }
}
[JsonObject(MemberSerialization = MemberSerialization.Fields)]
public class ActivityIdentity : IIdentity
{
private string _name = null;
[JsonIgnore()]
private bool _isAuthenticated = false;
[JsonIgnore()]
private string _authenticationType = "";
public ActivityIdentity()
{
}
public ActivityIdentity(string name) : this(name, false, "")
{
}
internal ActivityIdentity(string name, bool isAuthenticated, string authenticationType)
{
this._name = name;
this._isAuthenticated = isAuthenticated;
this._authenticationType = authenticationType;
}
public string Name { get => _name; }
public bool IsAuthenticated { get => _isAuthenticated; }
public string AuthenticationType { get => _authenticationType; }
public static ActivityIdentity Unathenticated => new ActivityIdentity();
}
[JsonObject(MemberSerialization = MemberSerialization.Fields)]
public class ActivityPrincipal : IPrincipal
{
private ActivityIdentity _activityIdentity = null;
private string[] _roles = null;
public ActivityPrincipal() : this(ActivityIdentity.Unathenticated, null)

public ActivityPrincipal(ActivityIdentity activityIdentity, params string[] roles)
{
_activityIdentity = activityIdentity;
_roles = roles;
}
public ActivityIdentity Identity => _activityIdentity;
IIdentity IPrincipal.Identity => _activityIdentity;
public bool IsInRole(string role)
{
if (_roles != null && _roles.Length > 0)
{
return _roles.Contains(role);
}
return false;
}
}
[JsonObject(MemberSerialization = MemberSerialization.Fields)]
public class ActivityContext : IDisposable, IActivityContext
{
private string _activityID = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
private DateTime _startDate = DateTime.UtcNow;
private DateTime? _endDate = null;
private ActivityPrincipal _activityPrincipal = null;
public ActivityContext() : this(null)
{
}
public ActivityContext(IPrincipal principal)
{
_activityPrincipal = Convert(principal);
}
private ActivityPrincipal Convert(IPrincipal principal)
{
if (principal == null)
{
return new ActivityPrincipal();
}
var activityPrincipal = principal as ActivityPrincipal;
if (activityPrincipal != null)
{
return activityPrincipal;
}
var claimsPrincipal = principal as ClaimsPrincipal;
if (claimsPrincipal != null)
{
var roles = claimsPrincipal.Claims.Select(x => x.Value);
var p = new ActivityPrincipal(

return p;

throw new NotSupportedException($"Converting {principal.GetType()} not supported");
}
public void Dispose()

public DateTime StartDate { get => _startDate; }
public DateTime? EndDate { get => _endDate; }
public IPrincipal User
{
get
{
return _activityPrincipal;

}
}
}
Of course, I'll still try to figure out what's wrong with the code. Please if you need another part of the code other from that I posted let me know.
Thanks!

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Any ideas?
I think you should change the constructor of CustomerRepository, replacing the parameter type CustomerBusinessService with the interface you registered as a service ICustomerBusinessService.
public class CustomerRepository : ICustomerRepository
{
private readonly AmounDB001DbContext amounDB001DbContext;
private readonly ICustomerBusinessService customerBusinessService;
public CustomerRepository(
AmounDB001DbContext _amounDB001DbContext,
ICustomerBusinessService _customerBusinessService
)
{
this.amounDB001DbContext = _amounDB001DbContext;
customerBusinessService= _customerBusinessService;
}

--- How can I create multi tables in one controller ?
Looks like you are using Sqlite.net-pcl, right?
Multiple tables from the same model are not supported (it's for simple cases only).
You can create multiple models (possibly by just inheriting) and then call CreatTable<T> for each of them.
I solved problem. Maybe this solution helps somenone.
I have two DbHepler Class and two model class for creating two tables on DB.
Base connection codes are same;
public interface ISQLite
{
SQLiteConnection GetConnection();
}
This is the App.cs file;
public class App : Application {
public App()
{
authenticationDB = new AuthenticationDbHelper(Database);
settingsDbHelper = new SettingsDbHelper(Database);
MainPage = new Views.MainMenuPage();
}
public static CreateDB Database
{
get
{
if (database == null)
{
database = new CreateDB();
}
return database;
}
}
}
The CreateDB class is necessary for create one db for all tables
public class CreateDB
{
public SQLiteConnection database;
public object locker = new object();
public CreateDB()
{
database = DependencyService.Get<ISQLite>().GetConnection();
}
}
This interface is necessary for created tables actions. Since implement this class we can use theese methods all tables.(T is table class)(To understand look AuthenticationDBHelper class)
public interface SQLiteBase<T>
{
IEnumerable<T> GetItems();
T GetItem(long id);
long SaveItem(T item);
void UpdateItem(T item);
int DeleteItem(int id);
int Clear();
int getCount();
}
This DbHelper class will be used for delete,insert,clear.... items.
public class AuthenticationDbHelper : SQLiteBase<AuthenticationDbTable>
{
SQLiteConnection database;
object locker;
public AuthenticationDbHelper(CreateDB db)
{
database = db.database;
locker = db.locker;
database.CreateTable<AuthenticationDbTable>();
}
public int Clear()
{
lock(locker)
{
return database.DeleteAll<AuthenticationDbTable>();
}
}
public int DeleteItem(int id)
{
lock (locker)
{
return database.Delete<AuthenticationDbTable>(id);
}
}
public AuthenticationDbTable GetItem(long id)
{
lock (locker)
{
return database.Table<AuthenticationDbTable>().FirstOrDefault(x => x.UserId == id);
}
}
public IEnumerable<AuthenticationDbTable> GetItems()
{
lock (locker)
{
return (from i in database.Table<AuthenticationDbTable>() select i).ToList();
}
}
public long SaveItem(AuthenticationDbTable item)
{
lock (locker)
{
return database.Insert(item);
}
}
public void UpdateItem(AuthenticationDbTable item)
{
lock(locker)
{
database.Update(item);
}
}
public int getCount()
{
return GetItems().Count();
}
}
I know it is very confused but this is the last. We will create model for authentication.
public class AuthenticationDbTable
{
public AuthenticationDbTable(long userId, string sessionId, string username, string clientuuid)
{
this.userId = userId;
this.sessionId = sessionId;
this.username = username;
this.clientuuid = clientuuid;
}
private long userId;
private string sessionId;
private string username;
private string clientuuid;
[PrimaryKey]
public long UserId
{
get { return userId; }
set { userId = value; }
}
public string SessionId
{
get { return sessionId; }
set { sessionId = value; }
}
public string Username
{
get { return username; }
set { username = value; }
}
public string Clientuuid
{
get { return clientuuid; }
set { clientuuid = value; }
}
}
Using
AuthenticationDbTable authentication = new AuthenticationDbTable(authenticateduser.User.UserId, r.Retval.SessionStatus.SessionId, authenticateduser.User.Name, authenticateduser.Clientuuid);
App.authenticationDB.SaveItem(authentiaction);
Note
For creating second table you can use same way. You should create second DbHelper and model class. Assume that you will create a table for settings. You should create SettingsDbHelper and SettingsDbTable class. through same way.
Thank you :)
I have an MVC 4 application that I'm building unit tests for. In my GameController, I have an Action, JoinGame, that requires the current userid. I get this with WebSecurity.CurrentUserId inside the controller.
When I run the unit test for JoinGame, UserId is not being populated. Obviously during a unit test there is no 'current' user. I'm trying to figure out how to mock one.
The first error I got was was System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name; httpContext
After much searching, I found
How to mock httpcontext so that it is not null from a unit test?.
I followed the guidance in that link (created a HttpContextFactory,
which mocked httpcontext and also set the current controller context
to the mocked data). This didn't have any effect.
I then found this Mocking WebSecurity provider
I created a wrapper interface & class for websecurity, and mocked the wrapper & injected the websecuritywrapper into the gamecontroller. This solved the httpContext (though I presently don't really understand why this worked and the HttpContextFactory didn't), however the CurrentUserId returned by the websecuritywrapper is always 0. Even if I hardcode it to 1 insider the websecuritywrapper class (public int CurrentUserId{ get { return 1; }}
Obviously I'm doing something wrong, just not sure what. I've posted code for the unit test, the controller and the wrapper below.
public RedirectToRouteResult JoinGame(int gameid)
{
//_wr is the websecuritywrapper
int UserID = _wr.CurrentUserId; //WebSecurity.CurrentUserId;
// get userteam for this user and this game
UserTeam ut = _UserTeamRepository.GetUserTeam(userteamid:0, gameid: gameid, userid: UserID);
int intUTID = 0;
if (ut == null)
{
// no userteam found, create it
OperationStatus opStatus = _UserTeamRepository.CreateUserTeam(UserID, gameid);
if (opStatus.Status) intUTID = (int)opStatus.OperationID;
}
else {intUTID = ut.Id; }
if (intUTID > 0)
{
return RedirectToAction("Index", "ViewPlayers", new { id = intUTID });
}
else
{
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Game");
}
}

The reason that you're getting 0 back when you hard code 1 is because of this line:
Mock<IWebSecurityWrapper> mockWSW = new Mock<IWebSecurityWrapper>();
The version of the IWebSecurityWrapper you're getting is a mock (since you injected it as such). Adding
mockSW.Setup(x=>x.CurrentUserId).Returns(1);
Should get you what you need. Since we're now telling the mock to return 1 when asked for the CurrentUserId
The reason HttpContextFactory didn't work is because the HttpContextFactory implementations I've seen deal with properties on the controller and I suspect your dependency on HttpContext was inside the WebSecurity class itself, hence why you need the wrapper.
I'm developing a simple web app where I need to bind all types implementing and interface of a specific type. My interface has one single property like this
public interface IContent {
string Id { get;set; }
}
a common class using this interface would look like this
public class Article : IContent {
public string Id { get;set; }
public string Heading { get;set; }
}
to be clean here the article class is just one of many different classes implementing IContent so therefor I need a generic way of storing and updating these types.
So in my controller I have the put method like this
public void Put(string id, [System.Web.Http.ModelBinding.ModelBinder(typeof(ContentModelBinder))] IContent value)
{
// Store the updated object in ravendb
}
and the ContentBinder
public class ContentModelBinder : System.Web.Http.ModelBinding.IModelBinder {
public bool BindModel(HttpActionContext actionContext, ModelBindingContext bindingContext) {
actionContext.ControllerContext.Request.Content.ReadAsAsync<Article>().ContinueWith(task =>
{
Article model = task.Result;
bindingContext.Model = model;
});
return true;
}
}
The code above does not work because it does not seem to get hold of the Heading property even though if I use the default model binder it binds the Heading correctly.
So, in the BindModel method I guess I need to load the correct object from ravendb based on the Id and then update the complex object using some kind of default model binder or so? This is where I need some help.

I used #kiran-challa solution and added TypeNameHandling on Json media type formatter's SerializerSettings.
I am trying to run lazy queries against raven db and get the counts on total matching results. I am finding when I query against a static index, a lazy search does not initialize the statistics when the query is materialized, but otherwise it comes back all right.
Below is the test to prove this behaviour.

public class CanSearchLazily
{
private const int ServerPort = 8085;
private readonly string _serverAddress = #"http://localhost:{0}".For(ServerPort);

CanGetTotalResultsFromStatisticsOnLazySearchAgainstAnIndex();
}
[Test]
public void CanGetTotalResultsFromStatisticsOnLazySearchAgainstStaticIndex()
{
CanGetTotalResultsFromStatisticsOnLazySearchAgainstAnIndex("UserByFirstName");
}
private void CanGetTotalResultsFromStatisticsOnLazySearchAgainstAnIndex(string indexName = "")
{
BuilderSetup.DisablePropertyNamingFor<User, string>(x => x.Id);
var users = Builder<User>.CreateListOfSize(2000).All()
.With(x => x.FirstName = GetRandom.FirstName())
.With(x => x.LastName = GetRandom.LastName())
.Build();
using (GetNewServer())
using (var store = new DocumentStore { Url = _serverAddress }.Initialize())
{
using (var session = store.OpenSession())
{
users.ForEach(session.Store);
session.SaveChanges();
IndexCreation.CreateIndexes(typeof(UserByFirstName).Assembly, store);
session.Query<User, UserByFirstName>().Customize(x => x.WaitForNonStaleResults()).ToList();
}
using (var session = store.OpenSession())
{
var names = session.Query<User>().Select(u => u.FirstName).Distinct().Take(15).ToList();
RavenQueryStatistics stats;
var query = string.IsNullOrEmpty(indexName)
? session.Query<User>().Statistics(out stats).Where(x => x.FirstName.In(names))
: session.Query<User>(indexName).Statistics(out stats).Where(x => x.FirstName.In(names));
var results = query.Take(8).Lazily();
Assert.AreEqual(8, results.Value.ToList().Count);
Assert.AreEqual(DateTime.Now.Year, stats.IndexTimestamp.Year, "the index should have the current year on its timestamp");
Assert.IsTrue(stats.TotalResults > 0, "The stats should return total results");
}
}
