Clean Architecture With Blazor Server

This repository hosts a Blazor Server application designed with Clean Architecture principles, featuring a sophisticated user interface and an efficient code generator. This setup allows for the swift creation of remarkable web applications using .NET Blazor technology.

Explore the Live Demo

Experience the application in action in Blazor Server mode by visiting

• MS SQL Database: architecture.blazorserver.com

• PostgreSQL Database: architecture.blazors.app

Visual Insights

Dive into the application's aesthetics and functionality through screenshots and a video walkthrough.

Development Setup

To get started with development, ensure you have the following tools and environments set up:

• Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2022 (64-bit)
• Docker
• .NET 8.0
• Unit Test

This streamlined overview provides all the essential information about the Blazor Server application's repository, live demo, visual insights, and required development environment.

Setup Multiple authentication providers

Docker Setup for Blazor Server Application

Pull the Docker Image

First, pull the latest version of the Blazor Server Docker image:

docker pull blazordevlab/cleanarchitectureblazorserver:latest

Run the Docker Container

You can start the container in two modes: using an in-memory database for development purposes or connecting to an MSSQL database for persistent storage and configuring SMTP for email functionalities.

For Development (In-Memory Database):

docker run -p 8443:443 -e UseInMemoryDatabase=true -e ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT=Development -e ASPNETCORE_HTTPS_PORTS=443 blazordevlab/cleanarchitectureblazorserver:latest

For Production (Persistent Database and SMTP Configuration):

docker run -d -p 8443:443 \
-e UseInMemoryDatabase=false \
-e ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT=Development \
-e ASPNETCORE_HTTP_PORTS=80 \
-e ASPNETCORE_HTTPS_PORTS=443 \
-e DatabaseSettings__DBProvider=mssql \
-e DatabaseSettings__ConnectionString="Server=127.0.0.1;Database=BlazorDashboardDb;User Id=sa;Password=<YourPassword>;MultipleActiveResultSets=true;Encrypt=false;TrustServerCertificate=false" \
-e SmtpClientOptions__User=<YourSMTPUser> \
-e SmtpClientOptions__Port=25 \
-e SmtpClientOptions__Server=<YourSMTPServer> \
-e SmtpClientOptions__Password=<YourSMTPPassword> \
-e Authentication__Microsoft__ClientId=<YourMicrosoftClientId> \
-e Authentication__Microsoft__ClientSecret=<YourMicrosoftClientSecret> \
-e Authentication__Google__ClientId=<YourGoogleClientId> \
-e Authentication__Google__ClientSecret=<YourGoogleClientSecret> \
-e Authentication__Facebook__AppId=<YourFacebookAppId> \
-e Authentication__Facebook__AppSecret=<YourFacebookAppSecret> \
blazordevlab/cleanarchitectureblazorserver:latest

Replace placeholder values (<Your...>) with your actual configuration details.

Docker Compose Setup

For easier management, use a docker-compose.yml file:

version: '3.8'
services:
  blazorserverapp:
    image: blazordevlab/cleanarchitectureblazorserver:latest
    environment:
      - UseInMemoryDatabase=false
      - ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT=Development
      - ASPNETCORE_URLS=http://+:80;https://+:443
      - ASPNETCORE_HTTP_PORTS=80
      - ASPNETCORE_HTTPS_PORTS=443
      - DatabaseSettings__DBProvider=mssql
      - DatabaseSettings__ConnectionString=Server=127.0.0.1;Database=BlazorDashboardDb;User Id=sa;Password=***;MultipleActiveResultSets=true;Encrypt=false;TrustServerCertificate=false
      - SmtpClientOptions__User=<YourSMTPUser>
      - SmtpClientOptions__Port=25
      - SmtpClientOptions__Server=<YourSMTPServer>
      - SmtpClientOptions__Password=<YourSMTPPassword>
      - Authentication__Microsoft__ClientId=<YourMicrosoftClientId>
      - Authentication__Microsoft__ClientSecret=<YourMicrosoftClientSecret>
      - Authentication__Google__ClientId=<YourGoogleClientId>
      - Authentication__Google__ClientSecret=<YourGoogleClientSecret>
      - Authentication__Facebook__AppId=<YourFacebookAppId>
      - Authentication__Facebook__AppSecret=<YourFacebookAppSecret>
    ports:
      - "8443:443"
    volumes:
      - files_volume:/app/Files

volumes:
  files_volume:

Notes:

Replace <Your...> placeholders with actual values from your environment. The files_volume volume is used for persistent storage of application files. Adjust or extend volumes based on your specific needs. This optimized guide should help in setting up your Blazor Server application with either an in-memory or MSSQL database, configured SMTP server for email functionalities, and OAuth authentication for Microsoft, Google, and Facebook.

Supported Databases

• PostgreSQL (Provider Name: postgresql)
• Microsoft SQL Server (Provider Name: mssql)
• SQLite (Provider Name: sqlite)

How to select a specific Database?

1. Open the appsettings.json file located in the src directory of the Server.UI project.
2. Change the setting DBProvider to the desired provider name (See Supported Databases).
3. Change the ConnectionString to a connection string, which works for your selected database provider.
