Thread: Asp.net 5 and EF6
Hi I am trying to use certain features of Asp.net 5 using postgresql using EF6.
I have downloaded the latest unstable version of npgsql and tried to connect to my db.
But no luck.
I have posted a request to stackoverflow.com but haven’t had any response at all.
It is easy to connect to Sql Server using EF6 under asp.net 5.
So I would have thought as an interim measure until EF7 is ready which will be quite some time to come,
it should be possible to connect to postgresql using EF6.
Any ideas how?
Many thanks.

I have looked the Npgsql website and downloaded the EF7 files. Of course the full .net core. The problem *seems* to be that there are two separate libraries that need to be added. One is EF related and the other is the Npgsql wrapper. Unfortunately the Nuget installer is not working correctly either. The main error seems to be in the submitted version of the libraries and build version. The error is NU1007 Dependency specified was EntityFramework7.Npgsql >=1.0.0 but ended with EntityFramework7.Npgsql 1.0.0 Npgsql namespace is installed but not the entity framework. It looks as if EF7 will be released much later than asp.net 5. So a lot of time could be lost in the middle. Current suggested workaround for all DB's solution is to use EF6 under a separate .net project. Any suggestion? -----Original Message----- From: Adrian Klaver [mailto:adrian.klaver@aklaver.com] Sent: 04 February 2016 17:00 To: FarjadFarid(ChkNet); pgsql-general@postgresql.org Subject: Re: [GENERAL] Asp.net 5 and EF6 On 02/04/2016 08:46 AM, FarjadFarid(ChkNet) wrote: > Hi I am trying to use certain features of Asp.net 5 using postgresql > using EF6. > > I have downloaded the latest unstable version of npgsql and tried to > connect to my db. > > But no luck.

It is actually EF6 under full .net 5 Your previous post seemed to be referring to these instructions: http://www.npgsql.org/doc/ef7.html which would indicate you are using EF7, and as John pointed out, so does the error message.

The people I know who do develop software for .NET generally try and stay with the lowest common denominator, so are mostly still at framework 3.5, so their software runs on as many platforms as possible. Enterprise deployments are generally very leary of bleeding edge software. -- john r pierce, recycling bits in santa cruz

I think you can use EF6, but not with .NET Core. It's possible to use

I think you can use the stable version. EF6 support is very stable.

Just use this dependency in your project.json and "restore packages":
"dependencies": {
"EntityFramework6.Npgsql": "3.0.5",
...
}
The rest should be exactly the same as with SQL server.

Hi Arjen,
Currently one can only add a reference to asp.net5 that is rebuilt with asp.net5 library.
In the case of EF6 with full .net library and not the core.
The problem seems to be the build versioning of the npgsql library for the full .net library.
It is emitting one thing but expecting another.
At least this is one of the problems.
