Dependency injection of EF context in WebJobApp

I'm trying to create my first webjobapp that requires the use of Entity Framework. I am trying to inject my context into the builder of the app, but I'm getting an error:
Cannot bind parameter 'db' to type ApplicationDbContext. Make sure the parameter Type is supported by the binding
There are several examples on the web but the versions of the Azure WebJob appear to have changed quickly and I can't find one that works for the version I'm using. These are the package versions I'm using:
Webjobs 3.0
EF.NET Core 7.0
Targeting .NET 7.0
Here is my code:
class Program
{
static async Task Main()
{
var builder = new HostBuilder();
builder.ConfigureWebJobs(b =>
{
b.AddTimers();
b.AddAzureStorageCoreServices();
});
builder.ConfigureLogging((context, b) =>
{
b.AddConsole();
});
builder.ConfigureAppConfiguration((hostContext, configApp) =>
{
configApp.SetBasePath(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory());
configApp.AddEnvironmentVariables(prefix: "ASPNETCORE_");
configApp.AddJsonFile($"appsettings.json", true);
configApp.AddJsonFile($"appsettings.{hostContext.HostingEnvironment.EnvironmentName}.json", true);
});
builder.ConfigureServices(services => { services.AddDbContext<ApplicationDbContext>(options => options.UseSqlServer("My full connection string"));
services.AddTransient<IEmailSender, EmailSender>();
});
var host = builder.Build();
using (host)
//{
await host.RunAsync();
}
}
}
public class Functions
public static void Sendemails([TimerTrigger("0 0 20 * * SUN-THU")] TimerInfo timer,
ILogger logger, ApplicationDbContext db)
{
var mylist = db.Users.ToList();
}
}
I tried to configure the services using the following code instead of the above code. When inspecting the builder I can see that the services were added to the builder. But inspecting the host after the call to builder.Build(), The services do not show up in the host container.
var serviceCollection = new ServiceCollection();
ConfigureServices(serviceCollection);
.....
builder.ConfigureServices((context, sc) => sc= serviceCollection);
var host = builder.Build();
using (host)
{
await host.RunAsync();
}
}
.....
private void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services.AddDbContext<ApplicationDbContext>(options => options.UseSqlServer(_configuration.GetConnectionString("DefaultConnection")))
}

Initially Even I got the same error.
Done few changes in Program.cs .
My Program.cs:
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Identity.UI.Services;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging;

.ConfigureWebJobs(b =>
{
b.AddTimers();
b.AddAzureStorageCoreServices();
})
.ConfigureLogging((context, b) =>
{
b.AddConsole();
})
.ConfigureAppConfiguration((hostContext, configApp) =>
{
configApp.SetBasePath(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory());
configApp.AddEnvironmentVariables(prefix: "ASPNETCORE_");
configApp.AddJsonFile($"appsettings.json", true);
configApp.AddJsonFile($"appsettings.{hostContext.HostingEnvironment.EnvironmentName}.json", true);
})
.ConfigureServices(services =>
{
services.AddDbContext<ApplicationDbContext>(
options => options.UseSqlServer("MyDefaultConnection"));
services.AddTransient<ApplicationDbContext, ApplicationDbContext>();
});
var host = builder.Build();
using (host)
{
await host.RunAsync();
}
}
}
If you are running locally, cross check the local.settings.json file once.
My local.settings.json :
{
"IsEncrypted": false,
"Values": {
"AzureWebJobsStorage": "UseDevelopmentStorage=true",
"FUNCTIONS_WORKER_RUNTIME": "dotnet"
}
}
My appsettings.json:
{
"ConnectionStrings": {
"AzureWebJobsStorage": "Storage Account Connection String"
}
}
Also have a look at SO Thread once.
References taken from MSDoc.

I do the steps from the beginning.
1-
public class ApplicationDbContext: IdentityDbContext<User, Role, Guid>
{
public ApplicationDbContext(DbContextOptions options)
: base(options)
{
}
}
2-add in appsettings.json
"ConnectionStrings": {
"SqlServer": "Data Source=;Initial Catalog=SpaceManagment;User ID=sa;Password=654321;MultipleActiveResultSets=true;TrustServerCertificate=True;Connection Timeout = 60"
},
3-
add in program.cs
builder.Services.AddDbContext<ApplicationDbContext>(options =>
{
options
.UseSqlServer(settings.SqlServer);
//Tips
// .ConfigureWarnings(warning => warning.Throw(RelationalEventId.QueryClientEvaluationWarning));
});

Dotnet 5 worker runs kestrel server return empty response

while (!stoppingToken.IsCancellationRequested)
{
_logger.LogInformation("Worker running at: {time}", DateTimeOffset.Now);
if(!kestrelStarted) {
kestrelStarted=true;
var host = new WebHostBuilder()
.UseKestrel()
.UseStartup<Startup>()

but when I open the url on web browser: http://localhost:5000, also https://localhost:5001 returns empty, they are display: ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE

How to use * keyword in asp.net core services.AddCors

I want to set all localhost port can allow CORS and then i tried to use * keyword to do it , like below code :
readonly string MyAllowSpecificOrigins = "_myAllowSpecificOrigins";
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
//..
services.AddCors(options =>
{
options.AddPolicy(name: MyAllowSpecificOrigins,
builder =>
{
builder.WithOrigins($"http://localhost:*");
}
);
});
//..
}
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env)
{
//..
app.UseCors(MyAllowSpecificOrigins);
//..
}
but it not work :
csproj :
<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">
<PropertyGroup>
<TargetFramework>netcoreapp3.0</TargetFramework>
</PropertyGroup>
<ItemGroup>
</ItemGroup>

I want to set all localhost port can allow CORS
To achieve above requirement, you can try:
services.AddCors(options =>
{
options.AddPolicy(name: MyAllowSpecificOrigins,
builder =>
{
builder.SetIsOriginAllowed(origin => new Uri(origin).Host == "localhost");
}
);
});

How to use Basic Auth in netcore 2.2

I have to build a simple netcore 2.2 service (built as library) which has to use basic auth.
The project file is:
<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">
<PropertyGroup>
<TargetFramework>net462</TargetFramework>
<OutputType>Library</OutputType>
<CopyLocalLockFileAssemblies>true</CopyLocalLockFileAssemblies>

</PropertyGroup>

<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.AspNetCore" Version="2.2.0" />
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication" Version="2.2.0" />
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization" Version="2.2.0" />

The Builder is:
public IWebHost BuildWebHost(string[] args)
{
var path = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location);
var config = new ConfigurationBuilder()
.SetBasePath(path)
.AddJsonFile("appsettings.json", optional: false)
.Build();
var webHost = WebHost.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
.ConfigureAppConfiguration((hostingContext) =>
{
})
.ConfigureServices(services =>
{
services.AddMvcCore().SetCompatibilityVersion(CompatibilityVersion.Version_2_2);
// configure basic authentication
services.AddAuthentication("BasicAuthentication")
.AddScheme<AuthenticationSchemeOptions, BasicAuthenticationHandler>("BasicAuthentication", null);
// Add service for data access
services.AddSingleton(_dataProvider);
})
.Configure(app =>
{
app.UseAuthentication();
app.UseMvc();
})
.UseUrls($"http://*:{config.GetValue<int>("ListenPort")}")
.UseKestrel();
return webHost.Build();
}
And my controller:
[Authorize]
[ApiController]
[Route("[controller]")]
[Produces("application/json")]
public class GetRecordingsController : ControllerBase
{
public GetRecordingsController(ILogger<GetRecordingsController> logger, IDataProvider dataProvider)
{
}
[HttpGet]
public async Task<IActionResult> Get([FromQuery] string From,
[FromQuery] string To)
{
}
}
And, in the end, this is the BasicAuthenticationHandler :
public class BasicAuthenticationHandler : AuthenticationHandler<AuthenticationSchemeOptions>
{
private readonly IDataProvider _dataProvider;
public BasicAuthenticationHandler(IOptionsMonitor<AuthenticationSchemeOptions> options,
ILoggerFactory logger,
UrlEncoder encoder,
ISystemClock clock,
IDataProvider dataProvider)
: base(options, logger, encoder, clock)
{
_dataProvider = dataProvider;
}
protected override async Task<AuthenticateResult> HandleAuthenticateAsync()
{
if (!Request.Headers.ContainsKey("Authorization"))
return AuthenticateResult.Fail("Missing Authorization Header");
User user;
try
{
var authHeader = AuthenticationHeaderValue.Parse(Request.Headers["Authorization"]);
var credentialBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(authHeader.Parameter);
var credentials = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(credentialBytes).Split(new[] { ':' }, 2);
var username = credentials[0];
var password = credentials[1];
user = await _dataProvider.AuthenticateUser(username, password);
}
catch
{
return AuthenticateResult.Fail("Invalid Authorization Header");
}
if (user == null)
return AuthenticateResult.Fail("Invalid Username or Password");
var claims = new[] {
new Claim(ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier, user.Id.ToString()),
new Claim(ClaimTypes.Name, user.Username),
};
var identity = new ClaimsIdentity(claims, Scheme.Name);
var principal = new ClaimsPrincipal(identity);
var ticket = new AuthenticationTicket(principal, Scheme.Name);
return AuthenticateResult.Success(ticket);
}
}
Now, what's happen is that, if i send a GET with a wrong password, the HandleAuthenticateAsync correctly returns fail but my get method is called anyway: the Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization.DefaultAuthorizationService is not called.
This is the log:

I cannot figure out where I'm wrong

I think you are missing the following call in your startup file
app.UseAuthorization();
I hope this solves your issue.

No database provider has been configured for this DbContext - ASP.Net Core 2.1

I am getting the below error :
InvalidOperationException: No database provider has been configured for this DbContext. A provider can be configured by overriding the DbContext.OnConfiguring method or by using AddDbContext on the application service provider. If AddDbContext is used, then also ensure that your DbContext type accepts a DbContextOptions object in its constructor and passes it to the base constructor for DbContext.
