  Identity - returning custom user properties in custom method

  Jul 04, 2018 02:49 PM|skyblue28|LINK

  I find myself in several place updating the user.webstatus field so I would like to create my own function to do this in a class file so I can just call this instead.

  Here is my current code

  case SignInStatus.Success:
  
                          var finduserid = manager.FindByName(textUsername.Value).Id;
  
                          var isadmin = manager.IsInRole(finduserid, "Admin");
  
                          var currentUser = manager.FindById(finduserid);
  
                          if (isadmin)
                          {
                              Response.Redirect("~/pages/admin/adminland.aspx");
                          }
                          else
                          {
                              // check for first login
                              var empty = UtilsString.IsEmpty(currentUser.firstLogin.Trim().ToUpper());
  
                              if (!empty)
                              {
                                  if (currentUser.firstLogin.Trim().ToUpper() == "Y")
                                  {
  
                                      currentUser.webStatus = "Live";
  
                                      manager.Update(currentUser);
  
                                      Response.Redirect("~/account/managepassword.aspx");
                                  }
                                  else
                                  {
                                      Response.Redirect("~/pages/userland.aspx");
  
                                  }
                              }
  
                          }

  II have created this method. But I cant create Context.GetOwinContext().GetUserManager<ApplicationUserManager>(); in the class file so I am a bit confused as to how this is done correctly.

    ///<method>
          ///Update the users webstatus field, pass userid and numeric
          /// 1 - Live
          /// 2 - Logged In
          /// 3 - Invitation Sent
          ///<method>
          public IdentityResult SetUserWebstatus(string userID,int Status,ApplicationUserManager applicationUserManager)
          {
              string statusname = "";
            
              var user = applicationUserManager.FindById(userID);
  
              switch (Status)
              {
                  case 1:
                      statusname = "Live";
  
                      break;
                  case 2:
                      statusname = "Logged In";
                      break;
  
                  case 3:
  
                      statusname = "Invitation Sent";
  
                      break;
  
                  default:
                      statusname = "";
                      break;
              }
  
              user.webStatus = statusname;
  
              var result=applicationUserManager.Update(user);
              return result;
          }
  

  Please can you help point me in the right direction so I can do this correctly.

  Seems like a design issue.  Perhaps the status should be a claim that drives security or code access.  Or maybe use an enumeration since the code converts an int to a string constant which is what an enumeration is for.
