Hi,
Does IdentityServer uses SimpleMembership provider to manage users?
It uses the Membership facade. The rest is standard asp.net configuration.
Hi Dominick,
We have a legacy system that validates users (actually, it’s more or less Users DB with some basic information).
How would you recommend to integrate IdentityServer with such a legacy?
Regards
IdSrv is very extensible – you can implement IUserRepository and IClaimsRepository to adapt to arbitraty backend stores.
Such an instant reply :):):)
So practically, it would be a “fallback” to LegacyUserRepository.
In case, IdentityServer native UserRepository doesn’t return a record, we’ll try the legacy right?
Thank you
No. You replace the built-in one (based on membership) with your repository.
If we replace the existing implementation, shouldn’t we “loose” the web identity federation?
No – they are unrelated.
SimpleMembershipProvider stores some data regarding the web IdP.
IdSrv does not do any account linking, it is just and idp + federation gateway
Thank you for a great help and software :)
Dominick – Can you please help me with some step by step instructions on using my own User repository/ database table for Identity server to authenticate against? I know other people have done it, but can’t seem to figure out how. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Please use the issue tracker on github for idsrv questions.
I already did. Hope I created it in the right place: http://identityserver.codeplex.com/discussions/431329
