⁠Database Migrations (EF Core)

⁠Overview

For migrations, we need to add them initially and update or re-add them each time the context changes. The actual execution of migrations happen on application start and is autonomous.

⁠Lessons Learnt

• In order to create migrations, the DB context has to either
  • Have a default constructor.
  • Have a IDesignTimeDbContextFactory implementation. - This allows for providing the args to the overloaded constructor during design-time as there is no DI available during that time.
  • Migration library has to be a core library and not a standard library.
  • Migration project has to reference 'Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools'.
  • In order to make websockets operational via NGINX, certain proxy headers are required. See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/host-and-deploy/server?view=aspnetcore-3.1⁠

⁠Docker Support

⁠Local

The project supports being run as a container and is in fact indended to. In order to run this service locally, simply run docker-compose up in the directory where the docker-compose.yml file resides. The service will now run on port 8083:HTTPS, 8082:HTTP.

⁠Docker Hub

Automated builds are set up for Docker Hub. To use this service without the source code running, use

• docker pull frostauraconsolidated/events or
• Visit https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/frostauraconsolidated/events⁠.

After the service is running, you can connect another application to it via openid or simply confirm that the service is running correctly by navigating to https://localhost:8083/⁠

NOTE: For the container to work (HTTPS) by itself, we will require a valid SSL cert. You can simply create a dev self-signed cert using dotnet CLI, after which we can map it to the container. See below for local / development. For production you should have a valid cert. See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/security/docker-compose-https?view=aspnetcore-3.1⁠ for more.

Add a docker file share location for '%USERPROFILE%\.aspnet\https\'

dotnet dev-certs https --clean
dotnet dev-certs https -ep %USERPROFILE%\.aspnet\https\aspnetapp.pfx -p Password1234
dotnet dev-certs https --trust
