Solution Structure

✅ Prerequisites

• .NET 10 SDK
• Node.js 18+ and npm (required for the React client)
• SQL Server (default LocalDB) or PostgreSQL
• Duende IdentityServer 7.4.5

Note: Using older .NET versions may cause 502.5 errors on IIS or application startup failures.

📦 Installation via dotnet new Template

🔒 Database note:
This template includes default EF migrations. Review them and back up your database before applying.

ℹ️ Migration note from IdentityServer4.Admin:
The UserSecretsId for Admin, Admin API, and STS projects remains the same as in the older Skoruba.IdentityServer4.Admin solution to ease config migration. If you still have secrets from the old project on your machine, they will be reused (e.g., ApplySeed could point at your old DB). Change or clear user secrets if you need isolation.

1. Install the template

dotnet new install Skoruba.Duende.IdentityServer.Admin.Templates::3.0.0-preview.22

2. Create a new project

dotnet new skoruba.duende.isadmin \
  --name MyProject \
  --title MyProject \
  --adminemail "admin@example.com" \
  --adminpassword "Passw0rd-123" \
  --adminrole MyRole \
  --adminclientid MyClientId \
  --adminclientsecret MyClientSecret \
  --dockersupport true \
  --requirepushedauthorization true

Template Options

Option	Description
--name	Project name
--title	Admin UI title and footer text
--adminemail	Initial admin email
--adminpassword	Initial admin password
--adminrole	Role name used for admin authorization
--adminclientid	Client ID for the Admin UI OIDC client
--adminclientsecret	Client secret for the Admin UI OIDC client
--dockersupport	Include Docker support (true / false)
--requirepushedauthorization	Require PAR for admin client (true / false, default true). Note: PAR requires Duende IdentityServer Business Edition or higher. More info

🚀 Quick Start – Local Development

Note: This section is for developers who want to clone and contribute to the repository. If you want to use the template, see the section above.

The solution contains three runnable services:

Service	Project	Purpose
STS	Skoruba.Duende.IdentityServer.STS.Identity	IdentityServer + authentication
Admin API	Skoruba.Duende.IdentityServer.Admin.Api	REST API backend
Admin UI	Skoruba.Duende.IdentityServer.Admin	SPA host

1. Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/skoruba/Duende.IdentityServer.Admin
cd Duende.IdentityServer.Admin

2. Install React dependencies (first run only)

cd src/Skoruba.Duende.IdentityServer.Admin.UI.Client
npm install
cd ../..

3. Run the services

Open three terminals and run:

# Terminal 1: STS (IdentityServer)
cd src/Skoruba.Duende.IdentityServer.STS.Identity
dotnet run

# Terminal 2: Admin API
cd src/Skoruba.Duende.IdentityServer.Admin.Api
dotnet run

# Terminal 3: Admin UI Host
cd src/Skoruba.Duende.IdentityServer.Admin
dotnet run

4. Default local URLs

Service	URL
STS	https://localhost:44310
Admin API	https://localhost:44302
Admin UI	Check console output (usually https://localhost:7127)

By default, database migrations and seed data are enabled in Admin API (ApplyDatabaseMigrations, ApplySeed).

🐳 Running via Docker (Optional)

Tip: For the fastest onboarding, use the dotnet run approach above. Docker requires custom domain and certificates.

DNS Configuration

Update your hosts file to resolve skoruba.local:

Windows: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
Linux / macOS: /etc/hosts

127.0.0.1 skoruba.local sts.skoruba.local admin.skoruba.local admin-api.skoruba.local

Certificates Setup

Use mkcert to generate self-signed local certificates.

Windows

cd shared/nginx/certs
mkcert --install
copy $env:LOCALAPPDATA\mkcert\rootCA-key.pem ./cacerts.pem
copy $env:LOCALAPPDATA\mkcert\rootCA.pem ./cacerts.crt

# Generate skoruba.local certificates
mkcert -cert-file skoruba.local.crt -key-file skoruba.local.key skoruba.local *.skoruba.local
mkcert -pkcs12 skoruba.local.pfx skoruba.local *.skoruba.local

macOS / Linux

cd shared/nginx/certs
mkcert -install

# Copy root certificates (adjust paths for your system)
# macOS: ~/Library/Application\ Support/mkcert/
# Linux: ~/.local/share/mkcert/
cp "$(mkcert -CAROOT)/rootCA-key.pem" ./cacerts.pem
cp "$(mkcert -CAROOT)/rootCA.pem" ./cacerts.crt

# Generate skoruba.local certificates
mkcert -cert-file skoruba.local.crt -key-file skoruba.local.key skoruba.local *.skoruba.local
mkcert -pkcs12 skoruba.local.pfx skoruba.local *.skoruba.local

Run Docker Compose

docker-compose build
docker-compose up -d

Docker setup is based on bravecobra's repository – thanks! 😊

🗄️ EF Core & Data Access

DbContexts

The solution uses the following DbContext classes:

• AdminIdentityDbContext – ASP.NET Core Identity data
• AdminLogDbContext – Logging data
• IdentityServerConfigurationDbContext – IdentityServer configuration store
• IdentityServerPersistedGrantDbContext – IdentityServer operational store
• AuditLoggingDbContext – Audit logging
• IdentityServerDataProtectionDbContext – Data protection keys
• AdminConfigurationDbContext – Admin configuration and monitoring (added in v3.0.0)

Database Providers

• SQL Server (default)
• PostgreSQL

Switch providers in appsettings.json:

"DatabaseProviderConfiguration": {
  "ProviderType": "SqlServer"
}

Connection String Examples

SQL Server (LocalDB):

Data Source=(LocalDb)\\MSSQLLocalDB;database=DuendeIdentityServerAdmin;trusted_connection=yes;

PostgreSQL:

Server=localhost;Port=5432;Database=DuendeIdentityServerAdmin;User Id=sa;Password=#;

Running Entity Framework Migrations

Note: Initial migrations are included in the repository.

Use the PowerShell script in build/add-migrations.ps1:

.\add-migrations.ps1 -migration DbInit -migrationProviderName SqlServer

Arguments:

• --migration – Migration name
• --migrationProviderName – Provider type (choices: All, SqlServer, PostgreSQL)

Seed Data

Seed data is configured in:

• identityserverdata.json – IdentityServer clients and resources
• identitydata.json – ASP.NET Core Identity users and roles

Enable seeding via:

Option 1: Command line

dotnet run /seed

Option 2: Configuration (appsettings.json)

"SeedConfiguration": {
  "ApplySeed": true
},
"DatabaseMigrationsConfiguration": {
  "ApplyDatabaseMigrations": true
}

---

🔐 Authentication & Authorization

• Required role configured in AdministrationRole (appsettings.json)
• Admin UI authenticates via OIDC against STS
