I am trying EntityFrameworkCore in Visual Studio Code and I want to run "Update-Database" and "Add-Migration' commands, but there is no Package Manager Console in VSCode. what to do?
Yes, you can always do this with vscode
.
Install the dotnet ef tool
by running the preceding command.
dotnet tool install --global dotnet-ef
You should get a message in the command prompt as below.
You can invoke the tool using the following command: dotnet-ef Tool 'dotnet-ef' (version '5.0.3') was successfully installed.
Now you should be able to run any ef
commands. For example,
dotnet ef database update
That will give you a response as below.
Build started...
Build succeeded.
Done.
Just sharing this, as some people might have not installed the ef
tools.
