Entity Framework

This quickstart shows how to use an Entity Framework store for your ServiceProviders. This uses a NuGet package from Rock Solid Knowledge Rsk.Saml.IdentityProvider.Storage.EntityFramework and provides an implementation of IServiceProviderStore. This store is not meant as a full repository layer and is used for integration with IdentityServer. You can build your own repository layer by using SamlConfigurationDbContext found in the Rsk.Saml.IdentityProvider.Storage.EntityFramework package.

Nuget Installation

Our core IdentityProvider EntityFramework package:

install-package Rsk.Saml.IdentityProvider.Storage.EntityFramework

Our IdentityServer specific EntityFramework package. For example, for Duende:

install-package Rsk.Saml.DuendeIdentityServer.EntityFramework

Configuration

To use the provided ServiceProvider Store with your IdentityServer, use the AddSamlConfigurationStore extension on IIdentityServerBuidler passing in your DbContextOptionsBuilder

    var migrationsAssembly = typeof(Startup).GetTypeInfo().Assembly.GetName().Name;

    services.AddIdentityServer()
        // Other configuration code removed for brevity
        .AddSamlPlugin()
        .AddSamlConfigurationStore(options => options.UseSqlServer(
        "<connection_string>", sql => sql.MigrationsAssembly(migrationsAssembly)));

For running migrations, we recommend following the advice in the Entity Framework Core documentation.
