Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'd like the ability to use EFCore's Scaffold-DbContext with this package, so that the entities that get created use the right attributes and can be used with the supabase client.
Describe the solution you'd like
A command such as:
dotnet ef dbcontext scaffold --project foo.csproj --startup-project foo.csproj --configuration Debug Host=localhost;Port=5432;Username=supabase_admin;Password=your-super-secret-and-long-postgres-password;Database=postgres Supabase.Postgrest --data-annotations --context MyDbContext --context-dir Context --force --output-dir Entities --schema public
completes successfully, and creates a class for each database table, which use the correct attributes ([Table]
, [PrimaryKey]
, [Column]
, etc)
Actual result:
System.InvalidOperationException: Unable to find expected assembly attribute [DesignTimeProviderServices] in provider assembly 'Supabase.Postgrest'. This attribute is required to identify the class which acts as the design-time service provider factory for the provider.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I can run the scaffold command using the Npgsql.EntityFrameworkCore.PostgreSQL
package, and it creates the right classes for me, but they have the wrong attributes and they don't inherit BaseModel
, which causes the supabase client to error if you try to use them. I would have to manually edit every class to have the right attributes and inheritance.
Additional context
none
This would be very helpful functionality. It looks like this would require writing an extension to the Npgsql.EntityFrameworkCore.PostgreSQL
package and releasing a separate nuget package, wouldn't it? Or am I missing something?
