Update Auth0.OidcClient to use AndroidX bindings about auth0-oidc-client-net HOT 11 CLOSED

Looks like there are two PRs for this. #146, and then #153, both by @damieng. does not look like it has had much movement unfortunately.

In our project this appears to be the only library holding us back to not having to use the migration packages anymore.

from auth0-oidc-client-net.

@damieng try this: Android.zip I just took the code from this repository and set Target Framework to Andorid 10. Also removed all project references and replaced them with the NuGet package reference to Auth0.OidcClient.AndroidX.

Any ETA on this?

We are having the same issue while trying to migrate to the Auth0.OidcClient.AndroidX package.
When trying to build it produces the following error:
"Can not resolve reference: Xamarin.Android.Support.CustomTabs, referenced by Auth0.OidcClient. Please add a NuGet package or assembly reference for Xamarin.Android.Support.CustomTabs, or remove the reference to Auth0.OidcClient."

I had a look at the commit that was merged in #153, which adds the following two references to the AndroidX package:

<PackageReference Include="IdentityModel.OidcClient">
      <Version>3.1.2</Version>
    </PackageReference>
    <PackageReference Include="Xamarin.AndroidX.Browser">
      <Version>1.0.0</Version>
</PackageReference>

But if you have a look at the latest version of the Auth0.OidcClient.AndroidX on the official nuget server, those two depedencies are not listed in the latest package version (3.1.5), as can be seen here:
https://www.nuget.org/packages/Auth0.OidcClient.AndroidX/

Maybe no new version of the package was created after the merge of #153, or something went wrong while building the nuget?

Our current workaround was to integrate the complete Auth0.OidcClient.AndroidX project into our own solution. Then it works because dependencies are pulled correctly.

@Schmaga Yes, you can install the latest version of the second nuget package, but you'll still need to add the CustomTabs packages, which is not a solution at all. I still don't get why this takes that long and we still don't have any official release. :/

I just created a brand new regular Xamarin Android app (not Xamarin Forms) and added Auth0.OidcClient.AndroidX via Nuget then added a couple of lines to start the login process and it started fine with no additional errors.

Are you both using Xamarin Forms?

from auth0-oidc-client-net.

Additionally @Schmaga the IdentityModel.OidcClient is not needed as a dependency in Auth0.OidcClient.AndroidX or indeed any of the Auth0.OidcClient's except the .Core one which is a dependency of the others and so bring it in transitively.

I was wondering whether the Xamarin.AndroidX.Browser was required but the test I just did showed that for a regular Android project using Auth0.OidcClient.AndroidX that dependency was not required - indeed Auth0.OidcClient.Android also does not specify Xamarin.Android.Support.CustomTabs and nobody has reported issues on that.

Xamarin Forms has never been supported by this library. While theoretically the iOS and AndroidX libraries would potentially work by adding each to the platform-specific projects it is not clear how the state or protocol handler flow would be plumbed through the default Xamarin Forms template architecture.

Thanks for that, I think I've found the problem and I have a fix.

from auth0-oidc-client-net.

@damieng Yes, the issue happens on Forms. Here's another sample project - I've just created a new Xamarin.Forms solution and retargeted the Android SDKs to Android 10. As soon as I add the Auth0.OidcClient.AndroidX package, the solution won't build.

Using Auth0.OidcClient.AndroidX worked for me. Thanks guys!
