Returns

ReferenceNavigationBuilder

An object that can be used to configure the relationship.

Remarks

Note that calling this method with no parameters will explicitly configure this side of the relationship to use no navigation property, even if such a property exists on the entity type. If the navigation property is to be used, then it must be specified.

After calling this method, you should chain a call to WithMany(string?) or WithOne(string?) to fully configure the relationship. Calling just this method without the chained call will not produce a valid relationship.

HasOne(Type, string?)

Configures a relationship where this entity type has a reference that points to a single instance of the other type in the relationship.

public virtual ReferenceNavigationBuilder HasOne(Type relatedType, string? navigationName = null)

Parameters

Remarks

Note that calling this method with no parameters will explicitly configure this side of the relationship to use no navigation property, even if such a property exists on the entity type. If the navigation property is to be used, then it must be specified.

After calling this method, you should chain a call to WithMany(string?) or WithOne(string?) to fully configure the relationship. Calling just this method without the chained call will not produce a valid relationship.

The name of the property to be removed from the entity type.

Returns

OwnedNavigationBuilder

The name of the property to be configured.

Returns

PrimitiveCollectionBuilder

An object that can be used to configure the property.

Remarks

When adding a new property with this overload the property name must match the name of a CLR property or field on the entity type. This overload cannot be used to add a new shadow state property.

UpdateBuilder<T>(Func<T>)

This is an internal API that supports the Entity Framework Core infrastructure and not subject to the same compatibility standards as public APIs. It may be changed or removed without notice in any release. You should only use it directly in your code with extreme caution and knowing that doing so can result in application failures when updating to a new Entity Framework Core release.

[EntityFrameworkInternal]
protected virtual T UpdateBuilder<T>(Func<T> configure)

Parameters

configure Func<T>

Returns

T

Type Parameters

T

UsePropertyAccessMode(PropertyAccessMode)

Sets the PropertyAccessMode to use for all properties of this entity type.

public virtual OwnedNavigationBuilder UsePropertyAccessMode(PropertyAccessMode propertyAccessMode)

Parameters

The PropertyAccessMode to use for properties of this entity type.

Returns

OwnedNavigationBuilder

The same builder instance so that multiple configuration calls can be chained.

Remarks

By default, the backing field, if one is found by convention or has been specified, is used when new objects are constructed, typically when entities are queried from the database. Properties are used for all other accesses. Calling this method will change that behavior for all properties of this entity type as described in the PropertyAccessMode enum.

Calling this method overrides for all properties of this entity type any access mode that was set on the model.

WithOwner(string?)

Configures the relationship to the owner.

public virtual OwnershipBuilder WithOwner(string? ownerReference = null)

Parameters

ownerReference string

The name of the reference navigation property pointing to the owner. If null or not specified, there is no navigation property pointing to the owner.

Returns

OwnershipBuilder

An object that can be used to configure the relationship.

Remarks

Note that calling this method with no parameters will explicitly configure this side of the relationship to use no navigation property, even if such a property exists on the entity type. If the navigation property is to be used, then it must be specified.
