EF Core Example

Simple EF Core Example with Migrations

Requirements

• SQL Server Installed
• EF Core Tools installed: `dotnet tool install --global dotnet-ef`` -- NB! This updates to latest EF Core, you may need to specify version depending on version of EF Core you are using.

How to run

1. Clone the repo
2. Update `appsettings.json``, specifying connection string to an empty database you have created in SQL Server e.g.

   {
       ...
       "ConnectionStrings": {
           "DefaultConnection": "Server=(localdb)\\ProjectModels;Database=MyDatabaseName;Trusted_Connection=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=true"
       },
       ...
   }
   

3. dotnet ef database update to apply the migration
4. Run the project

Note

• Includes an example of using Option<T> as a model property with Configurations, see UserConfiguration.cs
• Registers OptionJsonConverter<T> in Program.cs to handle serialization/deserialization of Option<T> in JSON
• Still need to register OptionJsonConverter<T> in Program.cs for Swagger
