Often you'll want to require the user to log in before they can access
|
certain parts of your application. For example, it makes sense to show
|
the home page to everyone (whether you're logged in or not), but only
|
show your to-do list after you've logged in.
|
You can use the [Authorize] attribute in ASP.NET Core to require a
|
logged-in user for a particular action, or an entire controller. To require
|
authentication for all actions of the TodoController , add the attribute
|
above the first line of the controller:
|
Controllers/TodoController.cs
|
[Authorize]
|
public class TodoController : Controller
|
{
|
// ...
|
}
|
Add this using statement at the top of the file:
|
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization;
|
Try running the application and accessing /todo without being logged
|
in. You'll be redirected to the login page automatically.
|
The [Authorize] attribute is actually doing an authentication
|
check here, not an authorization check (despite the name of the
|
attribute). Later, you'll use the attribute to check both
|
authentication and authorization.

The to-do list items themselves are still shared between all users,
|
because the stored to-do entities aren't tied to a particular user. Now
|
that the [Authorize] attribute ensures that you must be logged in to
|
see the to-do view, you can filter the database query based on who is
|
logged in.
|
First, inject a UserManager<ApplicationUser> into the TodoController :
|
Controllers/TodoController.cs
|
[Authorize]
|
public class TodoController : Controller
|
{
|
private readonly ITodoItemService _todoItemService;
|
private readonly UserManager<ApplicationUser> _userManager;
|
public TodoController(ITodoItemService todoItemService,
|
UserManager<ApplicationUser> userManager)
|
{
|
_todoItemService = todoItemService;
|
_userManager = userManager;
|
}
|
// ...
|
}
|
You'll need to add a new using statement at the top:
|
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Identity;
|
The UserManager class is part of ASP.NET Core Identity. You can use it
