It looks like the `--use-database-names` option isn't being recognized in your `Scaffold-DbContext` command. This issue can sometimes occur due to the version of Entity Framework Core tools you're using or how the command is structured. | |
Here are a few steps to troubleshoot and resolve this: | |
1. **Ensure you have the latest version of EF Core tools**: | |
```powershell | |
dotnet tool update --global dotnet-ef | |
``` | |
2. **Use the `dotnet ef` CLI command instead of the Package Manager Console**: | |
Open a command prompt or terminal in the root of your project and run: | |
```bash | |
dotnet ef dbcontext scaffold "Server=DESKTOP-test;Database=ReadCsv;User Id=test;Password=test;TrustServerCertificate=True;" Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer --output-dir Models --use-database-names --table Users --table blabla --project //project-path.csproj | |
``` | |
3. **Check your EF Core tools version**: | |
Make sure your project is using a compatible version of EF Core tools. You can specify the version in your `.csproj` file: | |
```xml | |
<ItemGroup> | |
<DotNetCliToolReference Include="Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools.DotNet" Version="5.0.0" /> | |
</ItemGroup> | |
``` | |
4. **Verify the command syntax**: | |
Sometimes, using single quotes around the connection string can help: | |
```powershell | |
Scaffold-DbContext 'Server=DESKTOP-test;Database=ReadCsv;User Id=sa;Password=test;TrustServerCertificate=True;' Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer -OutputDir Models --use-database-names | |
``` | |
If these steps don't resolve the issue, you might want to check for any specific version-related issues or updates in the official EF Core documentation. | |
