MVC / Razor Pages

Module Registration

[DependsOn(typeof(AbpAspNetCoreMvcModule))]
public class MyWebModule : AbpModule
{
    public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
    {
        context.Services.AddRazorPages();
    }
    
    public override void OnApplicationInitialization(ApplicationInitializationContext context)
    {
        var app = context.GetApplicationBuilder();
        app.UseStaticFiles();
        app.UseRouting();
        app.UseAuthentication();
        app.UseAuthorization();
        app.UseConfiguredEndpoints(endpoints => endpoints.MapRazorPages());
    }
}

ABP Controller

[Area("App")]
[Route("api/app/book")]
public class BookController : AbpController
{
    private readonly IBookAppService _bookAppService;
    
    public BookController(IBookAppService bookAppService)
    {
        _bookAppService = bookAppService;
    }
    
    [HttpGet]
    public Task<PagedResultDto<BookDto>> GetListAsync(PagedAndSortedResultRequestDto input)
    {
        return _bookAppService.GetListAsync(input);
    }
}

Razor Page

public class IndexModel : AbpPageModel
{
    private readonly IBookAppService _bookAppService;
    
    public List<BookDto> Books { get; set; }
    
    public IndexModel(IBookAppService bookAppService)
    {
        _bookAppService = bookAppService;
    }
    
    public async Task OnGetAsync()
    {
        var result = await _bookAppService.GetListAsync(new PagedAndSortedResultRequestDto());
        Books = result.Items;
    }
}

---

Blazor

Blazor Web App Module

[DependsOn(
    typeof(AbpAspNetCoreComponentsWebAssemblyModule),
    typeof(AbpAutoMapperModule)
)]
public class MyBlazorModule : AbpModule { }

Blazor Component

@page "/books"
@inject IBookAppService BookAppService

<h3>Books</h3>

@if (books == null)
{
    <p>Loading...</p>
}
else
{
    <table class="table">
        <thead>
            <tr><th>Name</th><th>Type</th><th>Price</th></tr>
        </thead>
        <tbody>
            @foreach (var book in books.Items)
            {
                <tr>
                    <td>@book.Name</td>
                    <td>@book.Type</td>
                    <td>@book.Price</td>
                </tr>
            }
        </tbody>
    </table>
}

@code {
    private PagedResultDto<BookDto> books;

    protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
    {
        books = await BookAppService.GetListAsync(new PagedAndSortedResultRequestDto());
    }
}

Blazor Service Proxy

// The dynamic C# HTTP proxy is generated automatically
// Defined in the HttpApi.Client project

---

Angular

Service Proxy

abp generate-proxy -t ng

The automatically generated services are created in the src/app/proxy/ directory.

Using a Component

import { BookService } from '@proxy/books';

@Component({...})
export class BookListComponent {
  books: BookDto[] = [];
  
  constructor(private bookService: BookService) {}
  
  ngOnInit(): void {
    this.bookService.getList({}).subscribe(result => {
      this.books = result.items;
    });
  }
}

Multi-Tenancy (Angular)

// app.config.ts
export const appConfig: ApplicationConfig = {
  providers: [
    provideAbpCore(
      withOptions({
        tenantKey: "__tenant",  // Default
      })
    ),
  ],
};

---

React (Modern Template)

A React SPA is created with the modern template:

abp new Acme.BookStore --template app --modern

Project Structure

Acme.BookStore/
├── react/                    # React SPA (user interface)
├── src/
│   └── ...                   # Backend projects

In the microservice template:

Acme.BookStore/
├── apps/react/               # React SPA
├── apps/react-admin-console/ # Admin Console (served by the backend)
├── apps/auth-server/         # OpenIddict Auth Server
├── gateways/web/             # YARP reverse proxy
└── gateways/mobile/          # Mobile gateway

OpenIddict Client Seeding

The modern template seeds automatically:

• MyProjectName_App — React SPA
• MyProjectName_AdminConsole — Admin Console

shadcn/ui Theme

abp new Acme.BookStore --modern --shadcn-theme blue

Theme values: slate, pink, blue, turquoise, orange, purple

---

UI Theming

With the ABP UI theming system, you can use pre-built themes or custom themes.

Pre-built Themes

Theme	Description	License
leptonx	LeptonX (full)	Team+
leptonx-lite	LeptonX Lite	Free
basic	Basic Theme	Free

Theme Selection

abp new Acme.BookStore --theme leptonx-lite
abp new Acme.BookStore --theme basic

Basic Theme Installation (MVC)

[DependsOn(
    typeof(AbpAspNetCoreMvcUiBasicThemeModule)
)]
public class MyWebModule : AbpModule { }

---

Authorization UI

Defining Permissions

public static class BookStorePermissions
{
    public const string GroupName = "BookStore";
    
    public const string Books = GroupName + ".Books";
    public const string BooksCreate = Books + ".Create";
    public const string BooksUpdate = Books + ".Update";
    public const string BooksDelete = Books + ".Delete";
}

Permission Provider

public class BookStorePermissionDefinitionProvider : PermissionDefinitionProvider
{
    public override void Define(IPermissionDefinitionContext context)
    {
        var bookStoreGroup = context.AddGroup(BookStorePermissions.GroupName);
        
        var booksPermission = bookStoreGroup.AddPermission(BookStorePermissions.Books);
        booksPermission.AddChild(BookStorePermissions.BooksCreate);
        booksPermission.AddChild(BookStorePermissions.BooksUpdate);
        booksPermission.AddChild(BookStorePermissions.BooksDelete);
    }
}

Checking Permissions in the UI

@* MVC/Razor *@
@if (await AuthorizationService.IsGrantedAsync(BookStorePermissions.BooksCreate))
{
    <button>Create Book</button>
}

@* Blazor *@
<Authorize Policy="BookStore.Books.Create">
    <button>Create Book</button>
</Authorize>

Menu Contribution

public class BookStoreMenuContributor : IMenuContributor
{
    public async Task ConfigureMenuAsync(MenuConfigurationContext context)
    {
        if (context.Menu.Name == StandardMenus.Main)
        {
            await ConfigureMainMenuAsync(context);
        }
    }

    private Task ConfigureMainMenuAsync(MenuConfigurationContext context)
    {
        context.Menu.AddItem(
            new ApplicationMenuItem(
                "BookStore",
                l["Menu:BookStore"],
                icon: "fa fa-book"
            ).AddItem(
                new ApplicationMenuItem(
                    "BookStore.Books",
                    l["Menu:Books"],
                    url: "/Books"
                )
            )
        );
        return Task.CompletedTask;
    }
}

Best Practices

1. MVC/Razor Pages as the default choice — The most mature and best integrated
2. Prefer Blazor Web App (.NET 10) — Instead of Blazor Server/WASM
3. Use the modern template for React — With the --modern flag
4. Use the dynamic C# proxy — Avoid writing an HTTP client manually
5. Define permissions in a constant class — Don't use string literals
6. Use the menu contributor — Add menu items in a modular way
7. Start with LeptonX-Lite — Free, with sufficient features

What's New in v10.5

• Blazorise upgraded to 2.2.1 (v10.5+). Align direct Blazorise package pins with ABP's version and re-test custom Blazor components after upgrading.
• CMS Kit editor: CodeMirror updated to 6.0.2 (@abp/codemirror). If you customized CMS Kit editor resources, re-test the editor pages.
