Add dotnet ef install to front page

The example on the front page won't work currently, unless the user already had .NET EF tools installed

Careful when naming your App folder

While following the steps in the documentation, instead of using spark new MyApp I used some '-' (dash) to name my app folder.

Spent some time trying to figure out what the error was, because I could't use dotnet watch from the beginning.

So be careful when naming your app folder, don't use dashes.

Trying to install error

C:\Users\super\AppData\Local\Temp\a4e07dab-4af6-47d3-8659-a7c818a53cc6\restore.csproj : error NU1301: Failed to retrieve information about 'blazorspark.console' from remote source 'https://packagesource/FindPackagesById()?id='blazorspark.console'&semVerLevel=2.0.0'.

What next?

Install error

dotnet tool install --global BlazorSpark.Console -> I Runned this and it's installed
spark install. -> this does not work, do I have to install something else before running this command? also at whcih directory do I run it? I'm on a macbook
spark new MyApp

Is there a guide how to deploy to azure as an app service with SQLite ?

Normally it is easy but with the the env variables I am confused.

OAuth / SSO integration

Hey Spark Team,

Just a note to say how much I'm enjoying working with Spark. You folks have seriously knocked it out of the park!

So, here's a thought. What if Spark had OAuth and SSO support? Over at Plainfield School District 202, we're hooked on Microsoft's authentication system. If we could get that sort of integration with Spark, it would be a game changer for us.

And I don't think it's just us. I can see loads of devs getting excited about spinning up secure, internal apps with OAuth and SSO support. Feels like it could be a real boost to what Spark already offers.

I get that this is a big ask. I'm just putting it out there, and I'm more than willing to talk about it or explore other ways we might get the same benefits.

Once again, kudos on an amazing job with Spark. This is just a way we might be able to kick it up a notch.

Thanks for considering my suggestion! I've added it here as a GitHub issue for better tracking.

Is only for SSR mode?

I just serach Blazor framework to use, But I like this framework it looks like simple and wonderful.

I saw the doc, it only mentioned SSR, I don't know if use auto render or Webassembly render is work?

Got it working in azure but the styles are missing

any idea???

API Template Request

May I request for an API template? I mainly use .NET to build APIs only and use other frameworks for the frontend.

This was a thing before 1.0 but now we only have Blazor and Razor pages.

Thanks!

Introducing a Discord or Slack channel

Having a Discord or Slack channel for Spark could foster a strong, collaborative community around the project. It would provide a real-time platform for users and contributors to ask questions, share ideas, troubleshoot issues, and get to know each other, thereby accelerating problem-solving and innovation. Additionally, such a channel could improve onboarding of new contributors, making it easier for them to understand the project and start contributing effectively.

Styles are missing from my site

Hi, I'm trying out Spark and followed the steps in the tutorial, however my site has no styling:

I'm running the site using dotnet watch, and am also running Vite's development server in the background, using vite dev.

My dotnet watch command is also spamming the console with this:

[17:42:40 WRN] The SSL connection could not be established, see inner exception.. Make sure the Vite development server is running
[17:42:40 WRN] The SSL connection could not be established, see inner exception.. Make sure the Vite development server is running
[17:42:40 WRN] The SSL connection could not be established, see inner exception.. Make sure the Vite development server is running

It also said this at the start

[17:42:35 INF] Looks like the Vite development server is already running at https://localhost:5173.
[17:42:35 INF] This is the homepage.
[17:42:35 INF] HTTP GET / responded 200 in 430.0760 ms

[17:42:40 WRN] The Vite development server did not start within 5 seconds

(For reference, I started Vite before running dotnet watch because it didn't autostart)

.net 8 support

Hi there,
When are you planning to support .net 8? Thanks.

Is there any plan for adding model CRUD CLI feature?

If you add model scaffolding features (like create/update/delete page generation) into the CLI command then it will be very helpful and development will be faster. I can suggest more features like

1. Redis Cashe support
2. Logging into external sources like ELK
3. CQRS support
4. Audatible model
5. Load-balancing-friendly project ( so that your project can work perfectly when we run them in multiple worker processes and multiple servers as well)
6. Dynamic authorization ( so that user can create their own Role by selecting each controller action )
7. API project template ( seen that already have a pull request )
8. Themeing support
9. API exposing from the project with OAuth2/JWT security
10. Module/Plugins support

Could we add password less login using Fido2

Unable to create a new migration

I'm stepping through the "Basics" section in the documentation, and I created a new model called "Book". It successfully created the model class, and I added the corresponding DbSet property to the DbContext. When I try to create a migration for it, I get the following error. Also, there is no migration file created that I can find.

I noticed that the "Migrations" folder was missing after I created the blazor spark project. I tried manually adding the directory, but it still didn't work.

Install template wont work

To replicate issue just run 'spark install' before manually installing the BlazorSpark template. It would gives an error but still shows that the installation was success. Spark wont work unless you manually install the template.

The issue is that in InstallSparkCommand.cs line 16, '--' is missing from the install command.

No title

To run source code from a forked project instead of using the command "spark new MyApp" => How can I do it?

CreatedAt not set in SQLite

Hello, I've only tested it with SQlite but the CreatedAT field isn't putting the current date - it's empty. It should be automatic, shouldn't it? Just as ModifyAt should also change automatically on Updates.

How to Folder Publish after Vite has been added to the solution?

I am using Visual Studio 2022 Preview. When I run the site in debug mode it works/displays as it should. But if I Publish it to a folder to use with IIS the .js and .css files are not found.

The same problem can be reproduced running in debug mode by going into the .env file and changing ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT=Development
to
ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT=Production

I am new to Vite and haven't found the solution to this yet.

Thanks for your help/time

How can I enable Password restrictions?

I see this is in Appsettings but it seems to be ignored.

Can you give me a clue where in your Identity code I can add these options?

"Password": {
               "RequiredLength": 8,
               "RequireDigit": true,
               "RequireUppercase": false,
               "RequireNonAlphanumeric": false,
               "ResetExpires": 60
}

Thanks

Few questions and suggestions

I´m really interested in this project but would like to see few things

• Summary of the things you have been sharing on Twitter
  • the philosophy behind the the framework and what sparked it etc.
• High level roadmap for things to come and in what order you think they will be developed
• What flavour of Blazor is this WASM/Server and even if its super early do we know how this will play with Blazor United?
• Activate the Discussion tab for this repo for discussion like this 😅

I have downloaded and tested this since it is probably going to change a lot I´m not ready to go all in just yet 😆 but would love to have more information.

`302 Found` responses for files that aren't found

If a file cannot be found, rather than using 404 Not Found, the server responds with 302 Found.
Here's an example:

This also ends up causing errors, such as these:

Incorrect path to assets when published

The Vite component points to the assets folder but the vite config includes a 'build' folder.

I fixed this for now by updating the Vite razor component but this might be better fixed in the config.

eg.

else
{

<script type="module" src="/build/assets/app.js"></script>
}

External Auth Providers? MS/AzureAD

Any plans to add the built-in MS Identity auth provider support, not sure who uses local auth anymore, especially with lots of companies requiring MFA etc that can be all configured on the auth provider as well as not need to manage removing access on termination since it's tied to the external provider.

No support.

There is really no effective support for this platform. I wish creators would stop producing platforms that just lead down a dead end road.

Weston, if we can't get timely answers to legitimate questions then what's the point?

Just over it.

"Could not execute because the specified command or file was not found." error when making/running a migration

Here is the output when you run spark make migration User

Creating a new migration

Could not execute because the specified command or file was not found.
Possible reasons for this include:
  * You misspelled a built-in dotnet command.
  * You intended to execute a .NET program, but dotnet-ef does not exist.
  * You intended to run a global tool, but a dotnet-prefixed executable with this name could not be found on the PATH.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spark migration User created

To be honest I probably didn't install .NET correctly Turns out I forgot to install dotnet-ef, but it still shouldn't say that it was created.

Dashes in Project Name leave VS unable to load project file

When I use a dash in the project name it doesn't add the correct name for the .csproj file to the .sln file. For example, the project name: "Spark-App". The project file is created as intended, "Spark-App.csproj", but the .sln file contains "Spark_App.csproj" which causes spark open to launch VS and then VS cannot find the csproj file and it fails to load the solution.

Reproduce by:

1. Running spark new Spark-App
2. Change into directory: cd Spark-App
3. Run spark open

"spark make page <name>" file structure inconsistent with template

Hi,

Minor thing I just noticed: When creating a new page with spark make page Profile/Settings, it would create two new files Profile/Settings.razor and Profile/Settings.cs.
But that is a different naming than the ones that was created with the templates. Those files would be named something like Profile/Settings.razor and Profile/Settings.razor.cs, so it also adds the .cs file "under" (as a "fold out" file) the .razor file.

I think this should be easy to fix, and would make file creations more streamlined.

Improved documentation: Spark migration command

In the documentation, where it demonstrates how to perform the migration with the spark command, for those who do not have 'dotnet-ef' installed, the command will not work.

It would be interesting to warn about this point. Maybe leave the link to 'https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/ef/core/cli/dotnet' or put the command:

dotnet tool install --global dotnet-ef

I'm on a new pc, and I ended up facing this problem, even though I try to be familiar with ef-dotnet, it took me a while to understand what was missing 😂😂

By the way, excellent job!👏

About section is blank

It would look really nice to have an About section, especially so it has a description when it's pinned on my profile home page:)

Here are a couple suggestions for the About section:
"Easily construct comprehensive Blazor Server applications using Blazor Spark, our versatile open-source framework."
"Quickly build a full-stack Blazor Server application with this open-source Blazor framework"

What's the future of Spark?

Firstly, I want to make it clear that I mean to put no pressure or anything at all, OSS is OSS and anyone can contribute.

However, Spark doesn't seem to have much activity now. Is it because Spark is basically finished, or is it because the idea's unviable, or is it just that you lost interest/don't have the time?

Thanks :)

Cannot resolve view 'Update' in PasswordController
