Authorize

services.Configure<RazorPagesOptions>(options =>
            {
                options.Conventions.AddModularPageRoute("/ModuleId/Pages/Test", "test");
// The next line doesn't work.
                options.Conventions.AuthorizePage("/test");
            });

Isn't it possible to set a Razor page as the HomeRoute? With a Recipe Step?

@jtkech how can we set a razor page with HomeRoute?

@alberthajdu what is options.Conventions.AuthorizePage("/test"); supposed to do?

[jtkech]

Autoroute map routes to content items and just provides a way to define an home route through settings. Then HomeRoute is a concrete implementation that uses these settings to map the home route to a content item.

So we would need another feature to define an home page differently, or update Autoroute to have additional options, and then another feature to map these settings to a razor page by updating the route values e.g with the page specific value, the area value and so on, or update HomeRoute to use these additional options.

That said we can already define a razor page as an home page by using @page "/"

Or through the following mvc helper as commented in the demo module

            // This declaration would define an home page
            //options.Conventions.AddAreaPageRoute("OrchardCore.Demo", "/Hello", "");
