Remove Owin from MVC 5 Application and use asp.net custom forms authentication

-
Owin comes with 15 other dependencies when we add default "blank" mvc5 template in solution. Which some time is irrelevant to web application hence needs to be removed for adding custom authentication techniques in the web application. Remove the owin  from solution is tedious task but if we follow the below procedure then it can be easily removed from the solution.

  • Right click on your project and from menu click on Manage Nuget Packages.
    on left side of Manage Nuget Packages window click on Installed Package
    then on right side of window in search box type owin. 
Nuget Package import



  • Uninstall packages in order of:
    1. microsoft.aspnet.identity.owin
    2. microsoft.owin.host.systemweb
    3. microsoft.owin.security.cookies
    4. microsoft.owin.security.facebook
    5. microsoft.owin.security.google
    6. microsoft.owin.security.microsoftaccount
    7. microsoft.owin.security.twitter
    8. microsoft.aspnet.identity.entityframework
    9. microsoft.aspnet.identity.core
  • Open web.config file and remove these sections from   <runtime><assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">  
    <dependentAssembly>
        <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft.Owin" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-3.0.0.0" newVersion="3.0.0.0" />
      </dependentAssembly>
      <dependentAssembly>
        <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft.Owin.Security.OAuth" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-3.0.0.0" newVersion="3.0.0.0" />
      </dependentAssembly>
      <dependentAssembly>
        <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft.Owin.Security.Cookies" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-3.0.0.0" newVersion="3.0.0.0" />
      </dependentAssembly>
      <dependentAssembly>
        <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft.Owin.Security" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-3.0.0.0" newVersion="3.0.0.0" />
      </dependentAssembly>
  • Open bin folder and if there is any Owin assembly, delete all of them 
  • Or open web.config in <appSettings> section then add this <add key="owin:AutomaticAppStartup" value="false" />
  • Remove the element <remove name="FormsAuthentication" /> from the <system.webServer> <modules > this will enable the forms authentication in the application.
  • Now you can set authentication cookies in your login page using FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(model.UserName, model.RememberMe);  method and check the ticket in the pages to authenticate the users

Angular User Session Timeout example step by step

This functionality let the user know that their session is about to expire and that they would be logged out if they didn’t take action. I have written this functionality in Angular for my latest application.  If you are new to Angular 6 then read my article about Setting up Angular 6 step by step before jump to this article to get handy in Angular 6. Dealing with timers in Angular can be significantly different when using React components and subscriptions. The basic premises remains the same, though. We’ll have a service with a timer that will provide a Subject to which consumers of the service can subscribe. A React Subject provides an easy mechanism to trigger a “next” subscription to alert consumers that the timer has expired.   import { Injectable } from '@angular/core'; import { Observable, Subject, Subscription, BehaviorSubject} from 'rxjs/Rx'; @Injectable() export class IdleTimeoutService { private _count: number = 0;
