Thinktecture IdentityManager beta 1
Dominick and I have been quite busy on IdentityServer v3 as well as IdentityManager. We’re making good progress and this post is to announce beta 1 of IdentityManager.
A brief recap of what IdentityManager is all about:
IdentityManager is a tool for developers and/or administrators to manage the identity information for users of their applications. This includes creating users, editing user information (passwords, email, claims, etc.) and deleting users. It provides a modern replacement for the ASP.NET WebSite Administration tool that used to be built into Visual Studio.
Some features that IdentityManager provides:
- A browser based user interface as well as a RESTful API for managing user identity data
- Allows creating, deleting, and managing user identity data
- Claims as well as strongly typed properties are supported
- Allows managing role definitions
- Special support for MembershipReboot and ASP.NET Identity identity management systems
- Extensible API to allow for additional identity management systems such as ActiveDirectory, WAAD, LDAP and/or ASP.NET Membership (if you’re interesting in contributing, this would be a great area to help out with!)
- Designed as OWIN middleware to allow for flexible hosting
- Security model to authorize local users or users from an external OAuth2 authorization server
- Open source (BSD3)
Here are some updated screen shots:
Feel free to check out the documentation, the code, and please provide feedback. Thanks.
Hi there,
Sorry for being a complete noob here but can you point me in the direction of a step by step guide to integrate this into an existing MVC 5 Identity Website? I’ve gone so far as using NuGet to install Thinktecture IdentityManager – AspNetIdentity & Thinktecture IdentityManager and when i trying and add the Configuration within Startup.cs it can’t find the UserManagerFactory library. I have 2 usings; Thinktecture.IdentityManager & Thinktecture.IdentityManager.AspNetIdentity
I’m new to all this so would appreciate a little help to integrate what looks like a great solution for a project i’m working on :)
Thanks.
I will be doing more work on IdentityManager in the coming months, so will have more help/guidance then.
