Pomelo.EntityFrameworkCore.MySql is an Entity Framework Core provider built on top of MySqlConnector. It enables use the Entity Framework Core ORM with MySQL. Async functions in this library properly implement Async I/O at the lowest level, unlike providers based on Oracle's MySql.Data library which uses Sync I/O at the lowest level.

Nightly Builds

To add a NuGet.config file in your solution root, then you can use the unstable packages:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <packageSources>
    <add key="Pomelo" value="https://www.myget.org/F/pomelo/api/v3/index.json" />
    <add key="nuget.org" value="https://www.nuget.org/api/v2" />
  </packageSources>
</configuration>

Getting Started

Here is a console application sample for accessing a MySQL database using Entity Framework:

① We recommand you to set utf8 as your MySQL database default charset. The following statement will check your DB charset.

show variables like 'character_set_database';

② Put Pomelo.EntityFrameworkCore.MySql into your project's .csproj file

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>netcoreapp2.0</TargetFramework>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools" Version="2.0.0-preview2-*" />
    <PackageReference Include="Pomelo.EntityFrameworkCore.MySql" Version="2.0.0-preview2-*" />
  </ItemGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <DotNetCliToolReference Include="Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools.DotNet" Version="2.0.0-preview2-*" />
  </ItemGroup>
  
</Project>

③ Implement some models, DbContext in Program.cs. Then overriding the OnConfiguring of DbContext to use MySQL database. Besides, you can define a JsonObject field if you are using MySQL Server 5.7. Finally to invoking MySQL with EF Core in your Main() method.

                };
                context.Add(blog2);
                context.SaveChanges();

                var ret = context.Blogs
                    .Where(x => x.Tags.Object.Contains("Pomelo"))
                    .ToList();

            Console.Read();
