  hi

  I disabled both Abp.Account.EnableLocalLogin and Abp.Account.IsSelfRegistrationEnabled but then was surprised to still see a registration screen. What am I missing?

  The page will have a warning message. This is the default behavior.

  Can you explain what you expect from this case?

  

  This used to be done easily by a function CreateExternalUserAsync(ExternalLoginInfo info) on LoginModel but that seemed to go away. What is the replacement to that function?

  I think the new method is protected virtual async Task<IdentityUser> RegisterExternalUserAsync(ExternalLoginInfo externalLoginInfo, string userName, string emailAddress)

  I had made the decision to use email address for username for all users

  You can customize the login/register page to hide the username input and use email everywhere.

  Replace Input.UserName with Input.EmailAddress

  The page will have a warning message. This is the default behavior.

  I believe this is the default behavior when there are no External Providers but if there are one or more external login providers I believe CheckSelfRegistrationAsync will ALWAYS be true because of line 204:

   protected virtual async Task<bool> CheckSelfRegistrationAsync()
      {
          EnableLocalRegister = await SettingProvider.IsTrueAsync(AccountSettingNames.EnableLocalLogin) &&
                                await SettingProvider.IsTrueAsync(AccountSettingNames.IsSelfRegistrationEnabled);
  
  204     if (IsExternalLogin)
          {
              return true;
          }
  
          if (!EnableLocalRegister)
          {
              return false;
          }
  
          return true;
      }
  

  Thus it will show the form WITHOUT the SelfRegistrationDisabledMessage warning and never run OnPostExternalLogin. But anyways I'm hoping I don't need to concern myself with this page as I don't really want them to see a "registration" page, but to auto register in the background (like I used to have it).

  IsExternalLoginOnly => EnableLocalLogin == false && ExternalProviders?.Count() == 1;

  Which equates to true in my case but line 69 never runs from what I can see:

      public virtual async Task<IActionResult> OnGetAsync()
      {
          ExternalProviders = await GetExternalProviders();
  
          if (!await CheckSelfRegistrationAsync())
          {
  70          if (IsExternalLoginOnly)
              {
                  return await OnPostExternalLogin(ExternalLoginScheme);
              }
  
              Alerts.Warning(L["SelfRegistrationDisabledMessage"]);
          }
  
          await TrySetEmailAsync();
  
          return Page();
      }

  I think the new method is protected virtual async Task<IdentityUser> RegisterExternalUserAsync(ExternalLoginInfo externalLoginInfo, string userName, string emailAddress)

  RegisterExternalUserAsync only seems to run when the Register page is filled out and submitted? I want to avoid that and have them registered in the background without the users involvement. Overriding CreateExternalUserAsync(ExternalLoginInfo info) (referenced here) allowed me to do this. It looks like this was available recently?

  Main point, how can I register someone automatically based on the claims received from an external provider? Previously I just overrode CreateExternalUserAsync on LoginModel.

  Thanks in advance.

  This would be a GREAT solution but no longer seems to be available.

  I do see I can still override OnGetExternalLoginCallbackAsync for LoginModel which is a bit more messy but seems like it should work.

  Perhaps a true/false "enable external user auto creation" setting which defaults to running a function which could be overridden would make the most sense to me.

  Do you have a sample on how you'd best see that done? The Authentication-Customization sample in abp-samples still seems to override CreateExternalUserAsync.

  hi

  You can override the Task<IActionResult> OnGetAsync() method

  if IsExternalLogin is true, then get user info by var externalLoginInfo = await SignInManager.GetExternalLoginInfoAsync();

  Do your register logic in the OnGetAsync by copy code from OnPostAsync method.

  I also had a similar problem in the scenario where I need to have the ability to log in locally and the ability to login via Active Directory active, but a user cannot "self" register. Only an administrator can create accounts and without a created account a user cannot log in.

  See my post https://support.abp.io/QA/Questions/6843/External-Provider-login-is-able-to-register-a-user-even-if-self-register-setting-is-disabled

  So I also had to override the methods, but I think the correct solution is to have a flag that enables/disables the creation of a local user (self registration) and a flag that enables/disables registration from External Provider (automatic external registration)

  Is it possible to have this feature?

  Thanks

  I agree. It seems clear to me that a setting and pattern or two are missing somewhere to make this much cleaner for the various desired outcomes we each are working towards.

  hi all

  We will create an issue to track this internally. You can override the code as a temporary solution.

  Your question credit has been refunded.

  Thanks.
