In a .NET 5 web application, we use code such as the following in startup.cs to initialize the DB using Entity Framework:
using (var serviceScope = app.ApplicationServices.GetService<IServiceScopeFactory>().CreateScope())
{
var context = serviceScope.ServiceProvider.GetRequiredService<ApplicationDbContext>();
context.Database.EnsureCreated();
}
In .NET 6 though, I get the error that there is no ApplicationServices. I tried the solution proposed here, but then I get a runtime error: 'Cannot resolve scoped service 'WebApplication1.DataAccess.SchoolDbContext' from root provider'. The complete code in my program.cs is as follows:
using WebApplication1.DataAccess;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
WebApplicationBuilder builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
builder.Configuration.AddJsonFile("appsettings.json");
builder.Services.AddRazorPages();
// Setup EF connection

builder.Services.AddDbContext<SchoolDbContext>(options =>
options.UseSqlServer(builder.Configuration["Data:SchoolLocal:ConnectionString"]));
WebApplication app = builder.Build();
// https://stackoverflow.com/a/71258326/1385857
SchoolDbContext dbcontext = app.Services.GetRequiredService<SchoolDbContext>();
dbcontext.Database.EnsureCreated();
...
Help would be great.
CodePudding user response:
WebApplication
returned by builder.Build()
has Services
property which allows to create a scope:
using(var scope = app.Services.CreateScope())
{
var dbContext = scope.ServiceProvider.GetRequiredService<SchoolDbContext>();
// use context
}
