ASP.NET Core API with Vue UI
This example shows how to build a simple to-do app with an ASP.NET Core backend API and a Vue.js frontend.
Read Build a Secure To-Do App with Vue, ASP.NET Core, and Okta to see how this app was created.
Prerequisites: .NET Core 2.0 and Node.js.
Okta has Authentication and User Management APIs that reduce development time with instant-on, scalable user infrastructure. Okta's intuitive API and expert support make it easy for developers to authenticate, manage and secure users and roles in any application.
Getting started
To install this example application, run the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/oktadeveloper/okta-vuejs-aspnetcore-todo-example.git
cd okta-vuejs-aspnetcore-todo-example
This will download a copy of the project.
Create an application in Okta
You will need to create an OpenID Connect application in Okta to to perform authentication.
Log in to your Okta Developer account (or sign up if you don't have an account) and navigate to Applications > Add Application. Click Single-Page App, click Next, and give the app a name you'll remember.
Change the Base URI to http://localhost:5000
, and the login redirect URI to http://localhost:5000/implicit/callback
. Click Done.
Server configuration
Set the issuer (authority) in Startup.cs
.
Note: The value of {yourOktaDomain}
should be something like dev-123456.oktapreview.com
. Make sure you don't include -admin
in the value!
services.AddAuthentication(JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme)
.AddJwtBearer(options =>
{
options.Authority = "https://{yourOktaDomain}.com/oauth2/default";
options.Audience = "api://default";
});
Client configuration
Set the issuer
and copy the clientId
of the Okta application into ClientApp/router.js
.
Vue.use(Auth, {
// Replace this with your Okta domain:
issuer: 'https://{yourOktaDomain}.com/oauth2/default',
// Replace this with the client ID of the Okta app you just created:
client_id: '{clientId}',
redirect_uri: 'http://localhost:5000/implicit/callback',
scope: 'openid profile email'
})
Start the app
To install all of the dependencies and start the app, run:
npm install
dotnet run
