To clarify my question some more here is my code:

<!--this is the MainLayout.razor page -->
@inherits LayoutComponentBase
@inject Blazored.LocalStorage.ILocalStorageService localStorage
<PageTitle>T</PageTitle>
<MudLayout>
        
    <MudAppBar Elevation="1" Dense="false" Color="Color.Primary">
        <MudIconButton Icon="@Icons.Material.Filled.Menu" Color="Color.Secondary" Edge="Edge.Start" OnClick="@((e) => DrawerToggle())" />
     </MudAppBar>
     <MudDrawer @bind-Open="_drawerOpen" ClipMode="DrawerClipMode.Always" Elevation="2" Color="Color.Secondary">
        <NavMenu></NavMenu>
     </MudDrawer>
     <MudMainContent> 
         @text 
         @Body
    </MudMainContent>
</MudLayout>

@code {
    public bool Authed { get; set;} = false;
    bool _drawerOpen = false;
    public string text { get; set;} = "";

    protected override void OnInitialized()
    {
        base.OnInitialized();
        AutoInitLocalStorage();

    }

    void DrawerToggle()
    {
        _drawerOpen = !_drawerOpen;
    }

    private async void AutoInitLocalStorage()
    {
         bool authed = await localStorage.GetItemAsync<bool>("authorized");
         Authed = authed;
         text = Authed.ToString();
    }
}

when I run this nothing happens until I click on my top bar button, once I do the field @text shows up above the @body and is true, why is this? how can I make it run immediately? I tried to set @text to anything above the async local storage call and it shows up immediately.

CodePudding user response：

The page is loaded before the 'authed' is retrieved from localStorage because of the await statement without returning a task that OnInitialized (s/b OnInitializedAsync) waits for.

Try the following:

Replace OnInitialized with:

protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
{
    await AutoInitLocalStorage();
}

and change AutoInitLocalStorage to (note the 'Task' return type):

async Task AutoInitLocalStorage()
{
     bool authed = await localStorage.GetItemAsync<bool>("authorized");
     Authed = authed;
     text = Authed.ToString();
}
