I'm trying to developing a dashboard website for a wix application and I need to connect the website to the wix application.
I have a problem with an api (post) call. I have to fill in several information including the auth code that I don't know where to find.
Here is an image to illustrate the process :
I don't really know what is the wix app marker install, but for the authorization request I did this
$url_oauth = "https://www.wix.com/oauth/access"
response = RestClient::Request.execute(url: $url_oauth, method: :post, body:{grant_type: "authorization_code",client_id:"APP_ID", client_secret:"Secret_key", code:"{Can not find what is this value}"})
#data = JSON.parse(response)
render json: response
Here is the documentation :
Could you help how and where to find this Auth code ?
You will need to make an intermediate web service that will accept webhooks from WIX.
I'll show you the example of C# ASP.Net Core.
STEP 1:
We are waiting for a token from WIX and if it is received, we make a redirect.
private const string AppID = "";
private const string ApiKey = "";
private const string UrlAccess = "https://www.wix.com/oauth/access";
HttpGet("WaitToken")]
public ActionResult GetToken([FromQuery] string token = "")
{
try
{
if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(token))
{
string message = "Your message";
ModelState.AddModelError("TokenNotCorrect", message);
return BadRequest(ModelState);
}
string paramUrl = #"https://your web service/OAuth/api/check/WaitAuthCode";
string urlRedirect = $#"https://www.wix.com/installer/install?token={token}&appId={AppID}&redirectUrl={paramUrl}";
return RedirectPermanent(urlRedirect);
}
catch (WebException ex)
{
ModelState.AddModelError("GetTokenException", ex.Message);
return BadRequest(ModelState);
}
}
STEP 2:
We are waiting for the Auth Code to be received, provided that the user has confirmed the installation of the application.
[HttpGet("WaitAuthCode")]
public async Task<ActionResult> GetAuthCodeAsync([FromQuery] string code = "", string state = "", string instanceId = "")
{
try
{
if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(code))
{
string message = "your message";
ModelState.AddModelError("AuthCodeNotCorrect", message);
return BadRequest(ModelState);
}
var token = new Token(code);
if (!GetAccessToken(ref token))
return BadRequest("your message RefreshToken");
var tokenBase = new TokenBase
{
AppID = instanceId,
Token = token.RefreshToken
};
db.Tokens.Add(tokenBase);
if(await db.SaveChangesAsync() == 0)
return BadRequest("your message");
string urlRedirect = $"https://www.wix.com/installer/token-received?access_token={token.AccessToken}";
return RedirectPermanent(urlRedirect);
}
catch (WebException ex)
{
ModelState.AddModelError("GetAuthCodeException", ex.Message);
return BadRequest(ModelState);
}
}
The AuthCode is valid for 10 minutes, we send a request to receive a Refresh Token. This token must be kept at home, as it will be required in the future to obtain an Access Token.
private bool GetAccessToken(ref Token token)
{
try
{
string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(token, Formatting.Indented);
var client = new RestClient(UrlAccess);
var request = new RestRequest();
request.Method = Method.POST;
request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
request.AddParameter(string.Empty, json, "application/json", ParameterType.RequestBody);
var response = client.Post(request);
if (response == null)
return false;
token = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Token>(response.Content);
if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(token.RefreshToken))
return false;
return !string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(token.AccessToken);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
return false;
}
}
Getting an Access Token from a client application:
[HttpGet("WaitAccessToken")]
public async Task<ActionResult<string>> GetAccessToken([FromQuery] string instance = "", string apiKey = "")
{
string message;
var tokenBase = await db.Tokens.FirstOrDefaultAsync(x => x.AppID == instance);
if (tokenBase == null)
{
message = "Your message";
ModelState.AddModelError("AppIdNotFound", message);
return NotFound(ModelState);
}
var token = new Token
{
GrantType = "refresh_token",
RefreshToken = tokenBase.Token
};
if (!GetAccessToken(ref token))
{
message = $"Your message";
ModelState.AddModelError("NotCorrectAccessToken", message);
return BadRequest(ModelState);
}
return new ObjectResult(token.AccessToken);
}
Model Token:
public class Token
{
public Token() { }
public Token(string code) { Code = code; }
[JsonProperty("grant_type")]
public string GrantType { get; set; } = "authorization_code";
[JsonProperty("client_id")]
public string ClientID { get; set; } = "";
[JsonProperty("client_secret")]
public string ClientSecret { get; set; } = "";
[JsonProperty("code")]
public string Code { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("refresh_token", NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore)]
public string RefreshToken { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("access_token", NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore)]
public string AccessToken { get; set; }
}
Model Instance:
public class Instance
{
[JsonProperty("instanceId")]
public string InstanceId { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("appDefId")]
public string AppDefId { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("signDate")]
public DateTime SignDate { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("uid")]
public string Uid { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("permissions")]
public string Permissions { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("demoMode")]
public bool DemoMode { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("siteOwnerId")]
public string SiteOwnerId { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("siteMemberId")]
public string SiteMemberId { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("expirationDate")]
public DateTime ExpirationDate { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("loginAccountId")]
public string LoginAccountId { get; set; }
}
Don't forget that to get an Access Token, you will need the application ID on the site where it is installed.
[HttpGet("WixInfo")]
public ActionResult GetWixInfo([FromQuery] string instance = "")
{
try
{
string message;
var base64 = instance.Split(".");
if (base64.Length != 2)
{
message = "Your message";
ModelState.AddModelError("InstanceNotCorrect", message);
return BadRequest(ModelState);
}
var base64EncodedBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(base64[1]);
string json = Encoding.Default.GetString(base64EncodedBytes);
var info = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Instance>(json);
message = $"Your message.AppID: {info.InstanceId}";
return Ok(message);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
ModelState.AddModelError("GetWixInfoException", ex.Message);
return BadRequest(ModelState);
}
}
When a WIX application is launched by a user, you can get the ID of the running application.
public async Task<Customer> GetCustomersAsync(string id)
{
var prod = new Customer();
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
string url = "https://xxxxxx.com/api/Customers/" + id;
client.BaseAddress = new Uri(url);
HttpResponseMessage response = await client.GetAsync("");
if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
{
string content = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
prod = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Customer>(content);
}
return await Task.FromResult(prod);
}
Class Customer(Models)
public class Customer
{
public string CodeRandom { get; set; }
public string NameUs { get; set; }
}
I do make a call to the API to get the results. However I can't get the return result when .Result
This is how I do it:
var infocustomer = customerRepository.GetCustomersAsync(userrating);
string nameus = infocustomer.Result.NameUs;
When I debug, nameus exits by itself. Please give me any solution. Thank you
instead of this
string content = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
do this
string content = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
and then just
return prod;
I need to sign-in the user using only remote services. I think using TokenAuthController in Web.Core application

I am getting a reasonable loginResult. And PasswordSignInAsync method returns with success. At that point I conclude the sign in process is OK. But after when I check User.Identity. I see it is null. Same is valid for the SignInAsync method.All I wanna do is sign-in the user only using the remote services. Thank you all..
I solved the problem as given below:
Change the httpost login method in AccountController of Web.Mvc application as below
[HttpPost]
[UnitOfWork]
public virtual async Task<JsonResult> Login(LoginViewModel loginModel, string returnUrl = "", string returnUrlHash = "")
{
var claims = GetClaims(loginModel.UsernameOrEmailAddress, loginModel.Password);
if (claims == null)//giriş yapılamadı
{
return Json(new AjaxResponse { TargetUrl = "" });
}
else
{
var identity = new ClaimsIdentity(CookieAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationScheme, ClaimTypes.Name,
ClaimTypes.Role);
foreach (var claim in claims)
{
identity.AddClaim(new Claim(claim.type, claim.value));
}
//AbpSession.UserId=18;
//// Authenticate using the identity
//var principal = new ClaimsPrincipal(identity);
//await HttpContext.SignInAsync(CookieAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationScheme, principal, new AuthenticationProperties { IsPersistent = true });
//bool chk = User.Identity.IsAuthenticated;
////bool bak = User.Identity.IsAuthenticated;
//bool bak2 = User.IsInRole("Admin");
//return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home");
await _signInManager.SignInAsync(identity, loginModel.RememberMe);
await UnitOfWorkManager.Current.SaveChangesAsync();
bool bak = User.Identity.IsAuthenticated;
var bakl = AbpSession.UserId;
}
returnUrl = NormalizeReturnUrl(returnUrl);
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(returnUrlHash))
{
returnUrl = returnUrl + returnUrlHash;
}
return Json(new AjaxResponse { TargetUrl = returnUrl });
}
Create GetClaims method in AccountController of Web.Mvc application
protected List<ClaimRootObject> GetClaims(string UserName, string Password)
{
using (var client = new HttpClient())
{
string reqString = "http://localhost:21021/api/" + "TokenAuth/GetClaims/GetClaims?UserName=" + UserName + "&password=" + Password + "&TenantName=Default";
//string reqString = "http://localhost:81/api/TokenAuth/GetClaims/GetClaims?UserName=admin&password=123qwe&TenantName=TSEDergi";
HttpResponseMessage response = client.GetAsync(reqString).Result; // Blocking call!
if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
{
// Get the response
var JsonString = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
// Deserialise the data (include the Newtonsoft JSON Nuget package if you don't already have it)
//List<Claim> deserialized = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<Claim>>(JsonString.Result);
List<ClaimRootObject> deserialized = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<ClaimRootObject>>(JsonString.Result);
if (deserialized != null)
{
return deserialized;
}
}
else
{
}
}
return null;
}
Create the required objects
public class ClaimRootObject
{
public string issuer { get; set; }
public string originalIssuer { get; set; }
public Properties properties { get; set; }
public Subject subject { get; set; }
public string type { get; set; }
public string value { get; set; }
public string valueType { get; set; }
}
public class Properties
{
}
public class Subject
{
public string authenticationType { get; set; }
public bool isAuthenticated { get; set; }
public object actor { get; set; }
public object bootstrapContext { get; set; }
public List claims { get; set; }
public object label { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string nameClaimType { get; set; }
public string roleClaimType { get; set; }
}
And last step, modify your startup class of Web.Mvc project to enable cookie authentication.
public IServiceProvider ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
// MVC
services.AddMvc(
options => options.Filters.Add(new AutoValidateAntiforgeryTokenAttribute())
);
#region cookieAuthentication
services.AddAuthentication(CookieAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationScheme).AddCookie();
#endregion cookieAuthentication
IdentityRegistrar.Register(services);
AuthConfigurer.Configure(services, _appConfiguration);
services.AddScoped();
services.AddSignalR();
// Configure Abp and Dependency Injection
return services.AddAbp(
// Configure Log4Net logging
options => options.IocManager.IocContainer.AddFacility(
f => f.UseAbpLog4Net().WithConfig("log4net.config")
)
);
}
That's all. Then you can log in a user into the application using only remote services..
I have a Web API that returns a list of objects, when the client passes Accept application/json I want my globally registered json formatter to include TypeNameHandling for the derived types during serialization. However this doesn't work and I can't see why this shouldn't work ?
My objects
public class BaseClass
{
public int Id { get; set; }
}
public class SubClass : BaseClass
{
public string SubClassProp { get; set; }
}
public class SubClassA : SubClass
{
public string SubClassAProp { get; set; }
}
public class SubClassB : SubClass
{
public string SubClassBProp { get; set; }
}
WebApiConfig
public static void Register(HttpConfiguration config)
{
var formatters = GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.Formatters;
var jsonFormatter = formatters.JsonFormatter;
var settings = jsonFormatter.SerializerSettings;
settings.Formatting = Formatting.Indented;
settings.NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore;
settings.TypeNameHandling = TypeNameHandling.Auto;
}
Web API Controller
public class MyController : ApiController
{
[HttpGet]
public async Task<IList<BaseClass>> GetClasses()
{
return new List<BaseClass>
{
new SubClassA
{
Id = 1,
SubClassProp = "SubClass",
SubClassAProp = "SubClassAProp"
},
new SubClassB
{
Id = 2,
SubClassProp = "SubClass",
SubClassBProp = "SubClassBProp"
}
};
}
}
Call from API Client in same solution
var client = new HttpClient() { BaseAddress = new Uri("uri goes here...")}
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Clear();
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));
var resp = await client.GetAsync("uri goes here..."));
var jsonContent = await resp.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
var ListOfClasses = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<IList<BaseClass>>(jsonContent, new JsonSerializerSettings { TypeNameHandling = TypeNameHandling.Auto });
I'am expecting to get one element which is SubClassA and one that is SubClassB, but both is BaseClass ?
I also want it to be possible to Deserialize json to object in Post method.
And this should be possible for both json and xml
I am trying to send some serialized data to the view and bind it to the knockout code. I am using json.net library for serialization because I want to pass the constants of an enum to the view ( and not the underlying integers.) I am not sure how my controller returning Json data should look like. Here is the sample code:
My view model that will be serialized:
public class FranchiseInfoViewModel
{
public string FolderName { get; set; }
[JsonConverter(typeof(StringEnumConverter))]
public LobbyTemplateOptions LobbyTemplate { get; set; }
public List<LobbyTemplateOptions> LobbyTemplates { get; set; }
public void Initialize()
{
FolderName = "Test";
LobbyTemplate = LobbyTemplateOptions.G;
LobbyTemplates = new List<LobbyTemplateOptions>
{
LobbyTemplateOptions.G,
LobbyTemplateOptions.H,
LobbyTemplateOptions.I
};
Enum:
[JsonConverter(typeof(StringEnumConverter))]
public enum LobbyTemplateOptions
{
G = 7,
H = 8,
I = 9
}
My knockout code:
$(function () {
omega.FranchiseInfo = (function () {
var FolderName = ko.observable();
var LobbyTemplates = ko.observableArray([]);
$.getJSON("FranchiseData", function (data) {
FolderName(data.FolderName);
for (var i = 0; i < data.LobbyTemplate.length; i++) {
LobbyTemplates.push(data.LobbyTemplate[i]);
}
});
return {
folderName: FolderName,
lobbyTemplates: LobbyTemplates
}
} ());
ko.applyBindings(omega.FranchiseInfo);
})
}
I am wondering how my controller that passes serialized Json data to the view should look like as I have not used json.net and I am relatively new to programming:
Controller passing the Json data to the view:
public JsonResult FranchiseData()
{
FranchiseInfoViewModel franchiseInfoViewModel = new FranchiseInfoViewModel();
franchiseInfoViewModel.MapFranchiseInfoToFranchiseInfoViewModel();
string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(franchiseInfoViewModel);
// this is how I do it with the default Json serializer
// return Json(franchiseInfoViewModel, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
I would be very gratefull if somebody can post a working example of my controller. Thank You!
You need to implement JsonNetResult.
public class JsonNetResult : ActionResult
{
public Encoding ContentEncoding { get; set; }
public string ContentType { get; set; }
public object Data { get; set; }
public JsonSerializerSettings SerializerSettings { get; set; }
public Formatting Formatting { get; set; }
public JsonNetResult()
{
SerializerSettings = new JsonSerializerSettings();
}
public override void ExecuteResult(ControllerContext context)
{
if (context == null)
throw new ArgumentNullException("context");
HttpResponseBase response = context.HttpContext.Response;
response.ContentType = !string.IsNullOrEmpty(ContentType)
? ContentType
: "application/json";
if (ContentEncoding != null)
response.ContentEncoding = ContentEncoding;
if (Data != null)
{
JsonTextWriter writer = new JsonTextWriter(response.Output) { Formatting = Formatting };
JsonSerializer serializer = JsonSerializer.Create(SerializerSettings);
serializer.Serialize(writer, Data);
writer.Flush();
}
}
}
To use it, in your case you need to rewrite controller method in this way:
public ActionResult FranchiseData()
{
FranchiseInfoViewModel franchiseInfoViewModel = new FranchiseInfoViewModel();
franchiseInfoViewModel.MapFranchiseInfoToFranchiseInfoViewModel();
JsonNetResult jsonNetResult = new JsonNetResult();
jsonNetResult.Formatting = Formatting.Indented;
jsonNetResult.Data = franchiseInfoViewModel;
return jsonNetResult;
}
(implementation of JsonNetResult above was taken this blog post
http://james.newtonking.com/archive/2008/10/16/asp-net-mvc-and-json-net.aspx )
