CWALabs.AspNetCore.Identity.CosmosDb.DemoTemplate

CWALabs.AspNetCore.Identity.CosmosDb.DemoTemplate is a dotnet new project template package that scaffolds a complete ASP.NET Core demo app wired for:

Jump to install instructions

• ASP.NET Core Identity
• Azure Cosmos DB via AspNetCore.Identity.CosmosDb
• Passkey (WebAuthn) endpoints and UI

Versioning Note

Package versions for this template now follow SemVer 2.0 and no longer track the target .NET version number.

If you notice a version jump (for example to 12.0.0), that reflects the versioning scheme change for NuGet consistency, not a direct change in target framework by itself.

Install

dotnet new install CWALabs.AspNetCore.Identity.CosmosDb.DemoTemplate

What this does:

• dotnet new install tells the .NET SDK to download and register a template package on your machine.
• CWALabs.AspNetCore.Identity.CosmosDb.DemoTemplate is the NuGet package ID for this template pack.
• After installation, the template becomes available to the dotnet new command, just like the built-in project templates that ship with the SDK.
• This does not create a project yet. It only makes the template available for later use.

If you want to see which template packs are installed locally, run:

dotnet new uninstall

If you later want to remove this template pack, run:

dotnet new uninstall CWALabs.AspNetCore.Identity.CosmosDb.DemoTemplate

Official documentation:

• dotnet new command

Create a Demo Project

dotnet new cosmos-identity-demo -n MyIdentityCosmosDemo
cd MyIdentityCosmosDemo
dotnet run

What this does:

• dotnet new cosmos-identity-demo creates a new project from the installed template.
• cosmos-identity-demo is the template short name. It is the friendly command name exposed by the template package after installation.
• -n MyIdentityCosmosDemo sets the name of the generated project and the output folder name.
• cd MyIdentityCosmosDemo moves into the newly created project directory.
• dotnet run restores dependencies if needed, builds the app, and starts it locally.

If you want to create the project in a different folder, you can also use -o:

dotnet new cosmos-identity-demo -n MyIdentityCosmosDemo -o .\samples\MyIdentityCosmosDemo

If you want to see the template's available options before creating a project, run:

dotnet new cosmos-identity-demo --help

Official documentation:

• Create a project using a custom template
• dotnet run command

Configure Cosmos DB

After scaffolding, set your connection values in appsettings.json:

• CosmosDb:DatabaseName
• Passkeys:ServerDomain

For local development, use the Cosmos DB Emulator.
