openiddict-core VS Hot Chocolate

Openiddict is also an option. Check it out.https://github.com/openiddict/openiddict-core

To implement an OAuth server together with OpenID connect specification, I used a free and open source framework called Openiddict. You should checkout their GitHub repository at github.com/openiddict/openiddict-core. It is a nice and feature rich tool which help you get started very fast. However, comparing to alternatives like identity server, it needs more implementation rather functionalities coming out of the box.

You can use Openidict https://documentation.openiddict.com/, give it a try

Openiddict to create your own OpenID Connect server if you want to deep dive into auth https://github.com/openiddict/openiddict-core

If you do want a .NET IdP then you could look into OpenIddict but will require some hands on work, at a minimum authorisation controllers. If you're looking for something more out of the box OrchardCore's OpenId module might be better for you.

I personally prefer using Cookies with openiddict.

Also, the OAuth bit is very cool!! Do you plan to support OpenIddict it’s a free federated identity server.

Okta is a great example of an IdP, although there are many others. Auth0, Ping Federate, Amazon cognito, etc. OP also mentioned Identity Server, which is a framework for implementing your own IdP. I've also personally used an open-source library called [OpenIDDict[(https://documentation.openiddict.com/) to great success. I would highly recommend attempting to implement one of these providers as a learning exercise.

There are some libraries which allows you to declare some class with more or less arbitrary methods which will be called by it at runtime. I believe many of them do that in optimal way, not just using usual reflection. One of the examples is HotChocolate library https://github.com/ChilliCream/hotchocolate . You declare class with arbitrary methods which contain arbitrary arguments. "Arbitrary" doesn mean arbitrary at all, but if parameter type is registered in DI or marked by specific attribute, it can be passed to the method.

At work we are considering using GraphQL to build our read-only data-APIs using .NET 6, EF Core and SQL Server. Looking at the ecosystem the most relevant plattforms seems to be graphql-dotnet and ChilliCream.

I'm starting a brand new project. Looks like if we want to do GraphQL in .NET, it's either graphql-dotnet or Hot Chocolate. Both look pretty good on paper.

If you know it better: Please try statically typed generated graphql queries in C# (like write the graphql queries, have a graphql schema, then get generated C# types which resemble the query, the only thing I've found that could do it was https://chillicream.com/docs/strawberryshake and there I quickly hit this bug with super simple queries containing unions: https://github.com/ChilliCream/hotchocolate/issues/4662

If you don't know Hot Chocolate framework, feel free to read about it on chillicream.com (official website) and feel free to join the great community (which is always willing to help) on slack

I love using Hot Chocolate in C# ❤

Hotchocolate GraphQL server. This is the most advanced server for a .Net environment. This article does not go into the basics and assumes some framework knowledge.

I think for the time being that's the case, yeah. I'm confirming with the great people over at https://github.com/ChilliCream/hotchocolate to see if we can somehow work around that.
