ASP.NET Identity provider that uses NHibernate for storage

About this

About this

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

  • Drop-in replacement ASP.NET Identity with NHibernate as the backing store.
  • Based on same schema required by EntityFramework for compatibility model
  • Contains the same IdentityUser class used by the EntityFramework provider in the MVC 5 project template.
  • Supports additional profile properties on your application's user model.
  • Provides UserStore implementation that implements the same interfaces as the EntityFramework version:
    • IUserStore
    • IUserLoginStore
    • IUserRoleStore
    • IUserClaimStore
    • IUserPasswordStore
    • IUserSecurityStampStore

Quick-start guide

These instructions assume you know how to set up NHibernate within an MVC application.

  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 NHibernate Identity:
Uninstall-Package Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework
Uninstall-Package EntityFramework
Install-Package NHibernate.AspNet.Identity
  1. In ~/Models/IdentityModels.cs:

    • Remove the namespace: Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework
    • Add the namespace: NHibernate.AspNet.Identity
    • Remove the ApplicationDbContext class completely.
  2. In ~/Controllers/AccountController.cs

    • Remove the namespace: Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework
    • Add the relevant ISession implementation that will be used by default. This could be from a DI implementation. Note: This isn't mandatory, if you are using a framework that will inject the dependency, you shouldn't need the parameterless constructor.
  3. Setup configuration code

NHibernate

	// this assumes you are using the default Identity model of "ApplicationUser"
	var myEntities = new [] {
		typeof(ApplicationUser)
	};
	
    var configuration = new Configuration();
    configuration.Configure("sqlite-nhibernate-config.xml");
    configuration.AddDeserializedMapping(MappingHelper.GetIdentityMappings(myEntities), null);

    var factory = configuration.BuildSessionFactory();
    var session = factory.OpenSession();

    var userManager = new UserManager<ApplicationUser>(
        new UserStore<ApplicationUser>(session);

FluentNHibernate

	// this assumes you are using the default Identity model of "ApplicationUser"
	var myEntities = new [] {
		typeof(ApplicationUser)
	};
	
	var configuration = Fluently.Configure()
	   .Database(/*.....*/)
	   .ExposeConfiguration(cfg => {
	       cfg.AddDeserializedMapping(MappingHelper.GetIdentityMappings(myEntities), null);
		});
	
    var factory = configuration.BuildSessionFactory();
    var session = factory.OpenSession();

    var userManager = new UserManager<ApplicationUser>(
        new UserStore<ApplicationUser>(session);

Thanks To

Special thanks to David Boike whos RavenDB AspNet Identity project gave me the base for jumpstarting the NHibernate provider
