Entity Framework Core Tools

.NET Core CLI

# test if Entity Framework Core Tools has been installed
dotnet ef
# be sure to run the previous command in the folder of the project where EF has been added

# dotnet ef must be installed as a global or local tool
dotnet tool install --global dotnet-ef
# installed in ~/.dotnet/tools
# Add ~/.dotnet/tools to PATH

# update
dotnet tool update dotnet-ef --global
# --version 7.0.14

Package Manager Console in Visual Studio

Visual Studio
  • View → Other Windows → Package Manager Console
  • Default Project = the one containing the entity configurations
  • Startup Project = the one containing the sql server configuration

Data Providers

Provider Package NuGet Connection String
SQL Server Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer Server=(localdb)\\MSSQLLocalDB;Database=MyDb;Integrated Security=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=True;
Server=localhost;Database=MyDb;User=sa;Password=pwd;
MySQL / MariaDB Pomelo.EntityFrameworkCore.MySql server=localhost;database=MyDb;user=root;password=pwd
PostgreSQL Npgsql.EntityFrameworkCore.PostgreSQL Host=localhost;Database=MyDb;Username=root;Password=pwd
InMemory Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.InMemory databaseName: "test_database"
Sqlite Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite Data Source=/tmp/file.db

Connection string

  • The connection string could be stored in the secret store in dev environnement
  • It could also be stored in appsettings.Development.json in dev environnement
appsettings.json 
{
  "ConnectionStrings": {
    "MariaDb": "server=localhost;database=test;user=test;password=***"
  }
}

Dependency injection (ASP.Net Core)

By default the DbContext is registered as a scoped service: a new DbContext is created on a new thread for each API request.

MariaDb / MySql

Program.cs 
var connectionString = builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("MariaDb");  // get the connection string from the appsettings.json or the secret store
var serverVersion = new MariaDbServerVersion(new Version(10, 11, 4));

builder.Services.AddDbContext<MyAppContext>(
    dbContextOptions => dbContextOptions
        .UseMySql(connectionString, serverVersion));

SSL Authentication Error

On Windows, if named pipe authentication is used you may have this issue.
Disable SSL in the connection string to workaround it: sslmode=none

SQL Server

SqlConnectionStringBuilder

Program.cs 
var connectionStringWithoutPassword = builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("SqlServer");
var connectionStringBuilder = new SqlConnectionStringBuilder(connectionStringWithoutPassword);  // Package: System.Data.SqlClient
connectionStringBuilder.Password = builder.Configuration["SqlServerPassword"];
var connectionString = connectionStringBuilder.ConnectionString;

DbContext OnConfiguring

DataAccess/MyAppContext.cs 
public class MyAppContext : DbContext
{
    protected override void OnConfiguring(DbContextOptionsBuilder optionsBuilder)
    {
        optionsBuilder.UseSqlServer("server=localhost;database=test;user=test;password=***"); // hard-coded connection string
        optionsBuilder.UseMySql("name=ConnectionStrings:MariaDb", ServerVersion.Parse("10.11.4-mariadb")); // get it from the appsettings.json or the secret storage
        optionsBuilder.UseSqlServer(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["SqlServerConnectionString"].ConnectionString); // WPF

Log underlying SQL query

Program.cs 
builder.Services.AddDbContext<AppContext>(
    options => options
        .LogTo(Console.WriteLine, LogLevel.Information)  // simple logging
        .UseLoggerFactory(LoggerFactory.Create(loggingBuilder =>
            loggingBuilder
                .AddConfiguration(builder.Configuration.GetSection("Logging"))  // log the configuration
                .AddConsole()  // log into the console if there is one
                .AddDebug()))  // log into VS output Window and Linux journal
        .EnableSensitiveDataLogging(  // include the values of data in exception messages
            builder.Configuration.GetValue<bool>("DbContextLogOptions:EnableSensitiveDataLogging", false))
        .EnableDetailedErrors(        // wrap each call to read a value in a try-catch block
            builder.Configuration.GetValue<bool>("DbContextLogOptions:EnableDetailedErrors", false))
        .UseMySql(connectionString, serverVersion)
);
appsettings.json 
"DbContextLogOptions": {
  "EnableSensitiveDataLogging": true,
  "EnableDetailedErrors":  true
},

Database first: scaffold database to model entities

# generate entity classes and context class
dotnet ef dbcontext scaffold
  "Server=localhost;Database=MyDb;User=sa;Password=***;"  # an harcoded connection string
  "Name=ConnectionStrings:SqlServer"                      # get the connection string from the appsettings.json or the secret storage
  Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer  # the database provider
  --output-dir DataAccess/Entities  # output folder for entities
  --context-dir DataAccess          # output folder for DbContext
  --context "MyDbContext"           # default context name: DbNameContext
  --force                           # overwrite all the class files
  --table table1 --table table2     # scaffold only table1 and table2

Visual Studio

  • Ensure Entity Framework Core Tools have been installed
  • View → Other Windows → Package Manager Console
  • Default Project = the one containing the entity configurations ?
  • Startup Project = the one containing the sql server configuration ?

Repository Pattern

  • 1 Repository per resource: ItemRepository
  • 1 DbContext for the whole application
Repositories/ItemRepository.cs 
public class ItemRepository : IItemRepository
{
    private readonly MyAppContext context;

    public ItemRepository(MyAppContext context)
    {
        this.context = context;
    }

    public async Task<IReadOnlyCollection<Item>> GetAllItemsAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        var items = await context.Items
            .Include(x => x.NavigationProperty)
            .AsNoTracking()
            .ToListAsync(cancellationToken);
        return items;
    }

    public async Task<Item?> GetItemByIdAsync(int id, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        var item = await context.Items
            .AsNoTracking()
            .SingleOrDefaultAsync(x => x.Id == id, cancellationToken);
        return item;
    }

    public async Task<IReadOnlyCollection<Item>> GetItemsByNameAsync(string name, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        var items = await context.Items
            .Where(x => EF.Functions.Like(x.Name, $"%{name}%"))
            .AsNoTracking()
            .ToListAsync(cancellationToken);
        return items;
    }

    public async Task<Item> CreateItemAsync(Item item, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        await context.AddAsync(item, cancellationToken);
        await context.SaveChangesAsync(cancellationToken);
        return item; // it now contains its id
    }

    public async Task<bool> UpdateItemAsync(int id, Item item, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        ArgumentNullException.ThrowIfNull(item);

        var itemToUpdate = await context.Items.SingleOrDefaultAsync(x => x.Id == id, cancellationToken);

        if (itemToUpdate is null)
        {
            return false; // send not found from controller then
        }

        itemToUpdate.Name = item.Name;
        await context.SaveChangesAsync();
        return true;
    }

    public async Task<bool> DeleteItemAsync(int id, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        var nbAffectedRows = await context.Items.Where(x => x.Id == id).ExecuteDeleteAsync(cancellationToken);
        return nbAffectedRows == 1;
    }

Generic repository

RepositoryBase.cs 
public abstract class RepositoryBase<TEntity, TCreateUpdateQuery> where TEntity : class, new()
{
    private readonly AppContext context;

    private DbSet<TEntity> dbEntities { get; }

    protected RepositoryBase(BourseContext context)
    {
        this.context = context ?? throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(context));
        dbEntities = this.context.Set<TEntity>();
    }

    protected async Task<IReadOnlyCollection<TResult>> GetAsync<TResult>(
        Expression<Func<TEntity, TResult>> selector,
        Func<IQueryable<TEntity>, IIncludableQueryable<TEntity, object>>? include = null,
        Expression<Func<TEntity, bool>>? predicate = null,
        Func<IQueryable<TEntity>, IOrderedQueryable<TEntity>>? orderBy = null,
        Func<IQueryable<TEntity>, IQueryable<TEntity>>? skipTake = null,
        bool disableTracking = true,
        CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
        where TResult : class
    {
        IQueryable<TEntity> query = dbEntities;

        if (include is not null)
        {
            query = include(query);
        }

        if (predicate is not null)
        {
            query = query.Where(predicate);
        }

        if (orderBy is not null)
        {
            query = orderBy(query);
        }

        if (skipTake is not null)
        {
            query = skipTake(query);
        }

        if (disableTracking)
        {
            query = query.AsNoTracking();
        }

        return await query.Select(selector).ToListAsync(cancellationToken);
    }

    public async Task<TEntity> CreateAsync(
        TEntity entity, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        ArgumentNullException.ThrowIfNull(entity);

        await context.AddAsync(entity, cancellationToken);
        await context.SaveChangesAsync(cancellationToken);
        return entity;
    }

    public async Task<bool> UpdateAsync(
        Expression<Func<TEntity, bool>> filterByIdExpression,
        TCreateUpdateQuery query,
        CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        ArgumentNullException.ThrowIfNull(query);

        var entityToUpdate = await dbEntities
            .FirstOrDefaultAsync(filterByIdExpression, cancellationToken);

        if (entityToUpdate is null)
        {
            return false;
        }

        UpdateEntityFromCreateUpdateQuery(query, entityToUpdate);
        await context.SaveChangesAsync(cancellationToken);
        return true;
    }

    public async Task<bool> DeleteAsync(
        Expression<Func<TEntity, bool>> filterByIdExpression,
        CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        var nbAffectedRows = await dbEntities
            .Where(filterByIdExpression)
            .ExecuteDeleteAsync(cancellationToken);

        return nbAffectedRows > 0;
    }
}

Avoid using AsNoTracking and Include

AsNoTracking is used to improve performances when you don't need the entities to be tracked for changes. But a better way to improve performances is to use projection so you don't return the whole entity but only the needed fields. This way you don't need AsNoTracking because there is no more entities to track.
Include is used to retrieve other entities linked by a foreign key / navigation property. If you use a projection with a navigation property, you don't have to use Include.

Query generation

string contains vs like

context.Items.Where(x => x.Name.Contains("item1"));
SELECT [i].[Id], [i].[Name]
FROM [Items] AS [i]
WHERE (@__query_Name_0 LIKE N'') OR (CHARINDEX(@__query_Name_0, [i].[Name]) > 0)
context.Items.Where(x => EF.Functions.Like(x.Name, "%item1%"));
SELECT [i].[Id], [i].[Name]
FROM [Items] AS [i]
WHERE [i].[Name] LIKE @__Format_1

any

context.Items.Any(x => x.Id == 1);
SELECT EXISTS (
    SELECT 1
    FROM `item` AS `i`
    WHERE `i`.`id` = @__id_0)

left join

// with navigation property
context.Users.Select(u => new { u.Name, u.Group?.Name });

// method syntax
context.Users
    .GroupJoin(
        context.Groups,
        user => user.GroupId,
        group => group.Id,
        (user, grouping) => new { user, grouping }
    )
    .SelectMany(z => z.grouping.DefaultIfEmpty(), (z, grp) => new { userName = z.user.Name, groupName = grp.Name })
    .Select(x => new { x.userName, x.groupName });

// query syntax
from user in context.Users
join group in context.Groups
on user.GroupId equals group.Id into grouping
from grp in grouping.DefaultIfEmpty()
select new { userName = user.Name, groupName = grp.Name };
SELECT u.Name AS userName, g.Name AS groupName 
FROM User AS u
LEFT JOIN Group AS g
ON u.GroupId = g.Id

Pagination

public async Task<IReadOnlyCollection<Item>> GetItemsAsync(ItemQuery query, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
{
    var items = await this.context.Items
        .Skip((query.PageIndex - 1) * query.PageSize)
        .Take(query.PageSize)
        .AsNoTracking()
        .ToListAsync(cancellationToken);
    return items;
}
