PeterIn this article, I will explain you about creating a custom configuration sections in ASP.NET 5. We want to extend ASP.NET configuration settings using XML configuration elements of your own. To do this, we produce a custom configuration section handler. The handler should be a .NET Framework class that inherits from the System.Configuration.ConfigurationSection class. The section handler interprets and processes the settings that are outlined in XML configuration elements in a specific section of a web.config file. We willl browse and write these settings through the handler's properties. And here is the code that I used:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
namespace CustomConfigSection
{
public class LoginRedirectByRoleSection : ConfigurationSection
{
[ConfigurationProperty("roleRedirects")]
public RoleRedirectCollection RoleRedirects
{
get
{
return (RoleRedirectCollection)this["roleRedirects"];
}
set
{
this["roleRedirects"] = value;
}
}
}
public class RoleRedirect : ConfigurationElement
{
[ConfigurationProperty("role", IsRequired = true)]
public string Role
{
get
{
return (string)this["role"];
}
set
{
this["role"] = value;
}
}
[ConfigurationProperty("url", IsRequired = true)]
public string Url
{
get
{
return (string)this["url"];
}
set
{
this["url"] = value;
}
}
}
public class RoleRedirectCollection : ConfigurationElementCollection
{
public RoleRedirect this[int index]
{
get
{
return (RoleRedirect)BaseGet(index);
}
}
public RoleRedirect this[object key]
{
get
{
return (RoleRedirect)BaseGet(key);
}
}
protected override ConfigurationElement CreateNewElement()
{
return new RoleRedirect();
}
protected override object GetElementKey(ConfigurationElement element)
{
return ((RoleRedirect)element).Role;
}
}
}
<configSections>
<section name="loginRedirectByRole" type="CustomConfigSection.LoginRedirectByRoleSection,CustomConfigSection" allowLocation="true" allowDefinition="Everywhere" />
</configSections>
<loginRedirectByRole>
<roleRedirects>
<add role="Administrator" url="~/Admin/Default.aspx" />
<add role="User" url="~/User/Default.aspx" />
</roleRedirects>
</loginRedirectByRole>
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using CustomConfigSection;
namespace CustomConfigSection
{
public partial class WebForm1 : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
LoginRedirectByRoleSection roleRedirectSection = (LoginRedirectByRoleSection)ConfigurationManager.GetSection("loginRedirectByRole");
foreach (RoleRedirect roleRedirect in roleRedirectSection.RoleRedirects)
{
if (Roles.IsUserInRole("", roleRedirect.Role))
{
Response.Redirect(roleRedirect.Url);
}
}
}
}
}
