            Filter on Controller to check User Agent and then redirect based on if result is true
            Asked 2020-Oct-15 at 18:08

            --------- Note (Edit) - I might be doing this completely wrong, any guidance would be appreciated if this is in fact wrong (New to mvc)

            In the solution a robots.txt file exists to block all crawlers from the site. The only problem with this is, is Facebooks crawler/scraper is not following the rules and are still crawling/scraping the site and causing an error to log and email every couple of minutes. The error being sent for this is "A public action method 'Customer' was not found on controller 'SolutionName.Web.Controllers.QuoteController'."

            The solution for this is to create a filter on the Controllers to check the agent name. If the agent name is for facebook then redirect them to a "No Robots authentication page". The filter has to be on the controller due to the site catering for 3 different routes where each has a custom link and customers has access to the direct links which gets shared on facebook (thus creating a route for this in the route config will not work).

            The problem I'm facing is that the solution is not redirecting immediate on the controller filter. It's acceding Action methods (These action methods are Partial Pages) and then fails due to not being able to redirect (the view already started rendering then - which is correct). Is there a way to redirect immediately on the first time when this filter is accessed? Or is there maybe a better solution to this?

            To test and troubleshoot I am changing the user agent in code to match what is logged. The error when redirecting from the filter: "Child actions are not allowed to perform redirect actions."

            The Error that is currently logged due to Facebook's crawler: " A public action method 'Customer' was not found on controller 'SolutionName.Web.Controllers.QuoteController'. "

            Answered 2020-Oct-15 at 18:08

            This is because you're using an ActionFilterAttribute. If you check the documentation here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/mvc/controllers/filters?view=aspnetcore-3.1 it explains the filter lifecycle and basically - by the time you arrive to action filters, it's too late. You need an authorization filter or a resource filter so you can short-circuit the request.

            Each filter type is executed at a different stage in the filter pipeline:

            Authorization Filters

            • Authorization filters run first and are used to determine whether the user is authorized for the request.
            • Authorization filters short-circuit the pipeline if the request is not authorized.

            Resource filters

            • Run after authorization.
            • OnResourceExecuting runs code before the rest of the filter pipeline. For example, OnResourceExecuting runs code before model binding.
            • OnResourceExecuted runs code after the rest of the pipeline has completed.

            The example below is taken from the documentation, it's an implementation of a Resource Filter. Presumably, a similar implementation is possible with an Authorization Filter but I believe returning a valid Http Status Code after failing an Authorization Filter may be a bit of an anti-pattern.

            ANSWER

            Answered 2020-Mar-22 at 14:46
            Overview

            The following script will read the robots.txt file from top to bottom splitting on newline. Most likely you won't be reading robots.txt from a string, but something more like an iterator.

            When the User-agent label is found, start creating a list of user agents. Multiple user agents share a set of Disallowed/Allowed permissions.

            When an Allowed or Disallowed label is identified, emit that permission for each user-agent associated with the permission block.

            Emitting the data in this manner will allow you to sort or aggregate the data for whichever use case you need.

            • Group by User-agent
            • Group by permission: Allowed / Disallowed
            • build a dictionary of paths and associated permission or user-agent

            Allow script tags in .Net Core Prerender.io middlewear
            Asked 2019-Dec-26 at 16:21

            I'm running .Net Core middleware and an AngularJS front-end. On my main page, I have google analytics script tags, and other script tags necessary for verifying with third-party providers. Prerender.io removes these by default, however, there's a plugin "removeScriptTags". Does anyone have experience turning this off with the .Net Core Middleware?

            A better solution may be to blacklist the crawlers you don't want seeing cached content, though I'm not sure this is configurable. In my case, it looks like all the user-agents below are accessing Prerender.io cached content.

            Here is my "crawlerUserAgentPattern" which are the crawlers that should be allowed to access the cached content. I don't see the ones above on this list so I'm confused as to why they're allowed to access.

            No Laravel Sessions for Bots
            Asked 2018-Oct-30 at 14:33

            I'm having problems with a big Laravel project and the Redis storage. We store our sessions in Redis. We already have 28GB of RAM there. However, it still runs relatively fast to the limit, because we have very many hits (more than 250,000 per day) from search engine bots.

            Is there any elegant way to completely disable sessions for bots? I have already implemented my own session middleware, which looks like this:

            ANSWER

            Answered 2018-Jul-04 at 16:33

            Your problem could be that you're not identifying robots correctly, so it would be helpful to provide the code for that.

            Specific to writing middleware that disables sessions, you're much better off changing the session driver to the array driver as that driver does not persist sessions, instead of changing the configuration of the real session driver at runtime.

            Facebook Debugger: Change Canonical URL value after Reverse Proxy Rewrite
            Asked 2018-May-28 at 11:51

            I've created a simple app that server renders some basic SPA content based on the user agent.

            For example, if an AngularJS website link is shared on Facebook i have a Apache rewrite rule to redirect that link to the rendering app. The rendering app then checks the URL that was passed as a query parameter and returns the specified rendered content.

            Everything works as expected, but there's a problem with the rendered result. The canonical link showed in the Facebook post is the rendering app's link. Here's what's happening:

            Shared Link: www.example.com/the-shared-link

            Facebook's post result:

            Instead of displaying the shared link (www.example.com/the-shared-link) the rendering app is shown instead (rendering.app.com). But if i click on the Facebook post, it opens the correct website page.

            Facebook Debugger result:

            All the needed meta tags are added to the rendered result page:

            Solved my issue!

            The rendering.app.com domain had a rewrite rule to force https. This causes a 301 HTTP Redirect (just as the Facebook Debugger showed). Using https://rendeting.app.com solved my issue. Another way of solving the 301 HTTP Redirect would be removing the https rewrite rule in the target domain.

            You may want to use stristr or a regex instead of strpos. As it is right now, your code won't match FacebookExternalHit, because it contains Capital Letters and strpos function is CaseSenSiTive.
