Interface IModelRuntimeInitializer

Namespace: Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Infrastructure

Assembly: Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.dll

Initializes a IModel with the runtime dependencies. This is typically implemented by database providers to ensure that any runtime dependencies specific to their database are used.

This interface is typically used by database providers (and other extensions). It is generally not used in application code.

public interface IModelRuntimeInitializer

Remarks

The service lifetime is Singleton. This means a single instance is used by many DbContext instances. The implementation must be thread-safe. This service cannot depend on services registered as Scoped.

See Implementation of database providers and extensions for more information and examples.
