Require authorization on ALL Blazor pages

Viewed 7475

I am playing with Blazor and created a web app that is server hosted. I have to put an authorize line on top of the page like this @attribute [Authorize] to ensure the user is logged in.

It seems like I have to add this line to each page individually. Is there a global setting that protects ALL the pages in the app, except for the login page of course.

Thanks!

I believe that will work... Place the following code snippet in the _Imports.razor file

@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization
@attribute [Authorize]

In that case, when the Index page is hit, the user will be redirected to the Login page. If you want to perform authentication before the Blazor App is being render, add the code snippet from above in the _Host.cshtml file

Add the @attribute [AllowAnonymous] to specific pages you want to exculde from authentication, as for instance, the Index page.

You can do this by adding a authorization fallback policy :

services.AddRazorPages();

services.AddAuthorization(options =>
{
    options.FallbackPolicy = new AuthorizationPolicyBuilder()
        .RequireAuthenticatedUser()
        .Build();
});

The fallback authentication policy requires all users to be authenticated, except for Razor Pages, controllers, or action methods with an authentication attribute.

That means that you can use the attributes for Example @attribute [Authorize] (attributes) to customize Authentication and Authorization.

Edit: I actually found a problem with the first solution where it would not allow me to have any endpoint or page that did not require authorization. I did find this link and it works like a charm.

I was looking for a solution for this myself and found the following link. So far it seems to work as expected.

New solution:

//RedirectToLogin
@inject NavigationManager NavigationManager
@code{

protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
{
    var returnUrl = "~/" + NavigationManager.ToBaseRelativePath(NavigationManager.Uri);
    NavigationManager.NavigateTo($"Identity/Account/Login?returnUrl={returnUrl}", forceLoad:true);
}

//App.razor
<AuthorizeRouteView RouteData="@routeData" DefaultLayout="@typeof(MainLayout)">
    <NotAuthorized>
        <RedirectToLogin />
    </NotAuthorized>
    <Authorizing>
        <p>Authorizing...</p>
    </Authorizing>
</AuthorizeRouteView>

//this in the page I want authorization for
@attribute [Authorize]

Old solution: I put the following in my ConfigureServices:

// Add a default AuthorizeFilter to all endpoints
services.AddRazorPages()
    .AddMvcOptions(options => options.Filters.Add(new AuthorizeFilter()));
