commands must be run from the project root directory (where the
Program.cs file is).
If you open up the Data/Migrations directory, you'll see a few files:
53
Create a migration
The first migration file (with a name like 00_CreateIdentitySchema.cs )
was created and applied for you way back when you ran dotnet new .
Your new AddItem migration is prefixed with a timestamp when you
create it.
You can see a list of migrations with dotnet ef migrations list .
If you open your migration file, you'll see two methods called Up and
Down :
Data/Migrations/_AddItems.cs
protected override void Up(MigrationBuilder migrationBuilder)
{
// (... some code)
migrationBuilder.CreateTable(
name: "Items",
columns: table => new
{
Id = table.Column<Guid>(nullable: false),
DueAt = table.Column<DateTimeOffset>(nullable: true),
IsDone = table.Column<bool>(nullable: false),
Title = table.Column<string>(nullable: true)
},
constraints: table =>
{
table.PrimaryKey("PK_Items", x => x.Id);
});
// (some code...)
}
protected override void Down(MigrationBuilder migrationBuilder)
{
// (... some code)
migrationBuilder.DropTable(
name: "Items");
// (some code...)
}
54
Create a migration
The Up method runs when you apply the migration to the database.
Since you added a DbSet<TodoItem> to the database context, Entity
Framework Core will create an Items table (with columns that match a
TodoItem ) when you apply the migration.
The Down method does the opposite: if you need to undo (roll back) the
migration, the Items table will be dropped.
Workaround for SQLite limitations
There are some limitations of SQLite that get in the way if you try to run
the migration as-is. Until this problem is fixed, use this workaround:
Comment out or remove the migrationBuilder.AddForeignKey lines
