Configure Microsoft.AspNet.Identity to allow email address as username

Question

I\'m in the process of creating a new application and started out using EF6-rc1, Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.Core 1.0.0-rc1, Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework 1.0.0-rc

Answer 1

In my case i had a repository class working with authentication, that didn't let me use a "-" inside usernames.. The fix was inside the constructor here:

//-------------------------------------------------------
public AuthRepository()
//-------------------------------------------------------
{
    _ctx = new AuthContext();
    _userManager = new UserManager(new UserStore(_ctx));
    _userManager.UserValidator = new UserValidator(_userManager)
    {
        AllowOnlyAlphanumericUserNames = false
    };
}
