Simple app including everything needed for a enterprise-grade Blazor app that is hosted in an ASP.NET Core app together with a Web API.

The main purpose is to show how to set all this up.

This project started off as a merger of the Blazor Hosted with Individual Auth template and the MudBlazor Hosted templates.

Recently, the project has been restructured into a layered app, adhering to the practices of Domain-driven design (DDD). It implements Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) with the Mediator pattern.

Contents described further below:

The app comes with this:

• MudBlazor component library
• Web API
  • Open API (w. Swagger)
• Entity Framework Core
• Authentication
  • Identity Server (OIDC endpoint)
  • ASP.NET Core Identity (individual accounts)
  • Support for external providers (Google, Azure AD etc.)
• SignalR
• Localization
• CQRS with MediatR
• .NET Tye - Development orchestrator

There is also a Worker service, using MassTransit with RabbitMQ as transport.

Some other notable features:

• Multi-tenancy - at Data Access Layer
• Azure Blob storage integration (Emulated)
• Smtp4Dev as a test e-mail server.
• Light/Dark mode

The project requires these dependencies to be built and to run:

• .NET 6 SDK
• .NET Tye CLI tools
• Docker Desktop

And then an IDE of your preference, such as VS Code, full Visual Studio for Mac or Windows, or Rider.

Run this in the solution folder.

$ tye run

This will launch the app and SQL Server running in a container.

To make the services restart on changes:

$ tye run --watch

Tye is an orchestrator that can be used to develop distributed applications. It orchestrates services - projects and containers, without developers having to think about configuration. Declare dependencies and run. It also handles service discovery.

Services are declared in tye.yaml.

It also makes it easy to deploy services to Kubernetes.

To publicly expose Blobs via their URLs you have to change Azurite's configuration.

(This requires Azurite to have been run once for the files to be created)

Open the file .data/azurite/__azurite_db_blob__.json:

Add the "publicAccess": "blob" key-value in the image container section shown below:

{
    "name": "$CONTAINERS_COLLECTION$",
    "data": [
        {
            "accountName": "devstoreaccount1",
            "name": "images",
            "properties": {
                "etag": "\"0x1C839AE6CDF11F0\"",
                "lastModified": "2021-05-14T15:08:51.726Z",
                "leaseStatus": "unlocked",
                "leaseState": "available",
                "hasImmutabilityPolicy": false,
                "hasLegalHold": false,
           -->  "publicAccess": "blob" <-- 
            },
            // Omitted
},

Then, restart Azurite.

Just restart the whole system. Exit Tye, and restart it.
