EF Core AUTO_INCREMENT problem with MySQL database

Question

The only problem i have now that i finished my database design is that the AUTO_INCREMENT is not specified when creating the tables by EF Core.

This is the modelBuilder

modelBuilder.Entity<Conturi>(entity =>
{
    entity.ToTable("conturi");
    entity.HasKey(e => e.IdCont);
    entity.Property(e => e.IdCont)
        .HasColumnName("id_cont")
        .HasColumnType("integer")
        .ValueGeneratedOnAdd();
    entity.Property(e => e.Nume)
        .HasMaxLength(10)
        .HasColumnName("nume")
        .HasColumnType("varchar");
    
    entity.Property(e => e.Prenume)
        .HasMaxLength(20)
        .HasColumnName("prenume")
        .HasColumnType("varchar");
    
    entity.Property(e => e.Gen)
        .HasColumnName("gen")
        .HasColumnType("tinyint");
    entity.Property(e => e.NrTelefon)
        .HasColumnName("nr_telefon")
        .HasColumnType("varchar")
        .HasMaxLength(10);
    entity.Property(e => e.Username)
        .HasColumnName("username")
        .HasColumnType("varchar")
        .HasMaxLength(15)
        .IsRequired();
    
    entity.Property(e => e.Email)
        .HasColumnName("email")
        .HasColumnType("varchar")
        .HasMaxLength(50)
        .IsRequired();
    
    entity.Property(e => e.Parola)
        .HasColumnName("parola")
        .HasColumnType("varchar")
        .HasMaxLength(150)
        .IsRequired();
    entity.Property(e => e.DataCreare)
        .HasColumnName("data_creare")
        .HasColumnType("datetime")
        .HasDefaultValueSql("NOW()");
    
    entity.Property(e => e.CodActivare)
        .HasColumnName("cod_activare")
        .HasColumnType("varchar")
        .HasMaxLength(100)
        .IsRequired();
    
    entity.Property(e => e.Verificat)
        .HasColumnName("verificat")
        .HasColumnType("tinyint")
        .IsRequired();
    
    entity.Property(e => e.Rol)
        .HasColumnName("rol")
        .HasColumnType("varchar")
        .HasMaxLength(15)
        .IsRequired();
    
    entity.HasMany(e => e.AdreseConturi)
        .WithOne(e => e.Cont)
        .HasForeignKey(e => e.IdCont)
        .IsRequired();
});

This is the entity model :

public  class Conturi : ICloneable
{
    [Key]
    [DatabaseGenerated(DatabaseGeneratedOption.Identity)]
    public int IdCont { get; init; } //
    
    [StringLength(10)]
    public string? Nume { get; init; } // 
    
    [StringLength(20)]
    public string? Prenume { get; init; } // 
    
    public bool? Gen { get; init; } //
    
    [StringLength(10)]
    public string? NrTelefon { get; init; } // 
    
    [StringLength(15)]
    public string Username { get; init; } // 
    
    [StringLength(50)]
    public string Email { get; init; }
    
    [StringLength(150)]
    public string Parola { get; init; }
    
    public  DateTime? DataCreare { get; init; }
    
    [StringLength(100)]
    public string CodActivare { get; set; }
    
    public bool Verificat { get; set; }
    
    [StringLength(15)]
    public string Rol { get; init; }
    public  ICollection<Adrese>? AdreseConturi { get;}
    public Conturi()
    {
        
    }
    public Conturi(string? nume, string? prenume, bool? gen, string? nrTelefon, string username, 
                   string email, string parola, DateTime? dataCreare, 
                   string codActivare, bool verificat, string rol , ICollection<Adrese>? adreseConturi)
    {
        Nume = nume;
        Prenume = prenume;
        Gen = gen;
        NrTelefon = nrTelefon;
        Username = username;
        Email = email;
        Parola = parola;
        DataCreare = dataCreare;
        CodActivare = codActivare;
        Verificat = verificat;
        Rol = rol;
        AdreseConturi = adreseConturi == null ? new HashSet<Adrese>() : new HashSet<Adrese>(adreseConturi);
       
    }
    // Copy Constructor
    public Conturi(Conturi other) 
    {
        ArgumentNullException.ThrowIfNull(other);
        
        IdCont = other.IdCont;
        Nume = other.Nume;
        Prenume = other.Prenume;
        Gen = other.Gen;
        NrTelefon = other.NrTelefon;
        Username = other.Username;
        Email = other.Email;
        Parola = other.Parola;
        DataCreare = other.DataCreare;
        CodActivare = other.CodActivare;
        Verificat = other.Verificat;
        Rol = other.Rol;
        AdreseConturi = other.AdreseConturi != null ? new HashSet<Adrese>(other.AdreseConturi) : new HashSet<Adrese>();
    }
    
    public object Clone()
    {
        return new Conturi(this);
    }
}

I got the latest version of Pomelo , EF Core , etc.

and this is how i see it in my DataGrip after running the migrations and updating the database.

Why it is no AUTO_INCREMENT selected there , even tho i specified in my EF Core fluent API , even in my model ?

Hi,@Stefan.

After testing, the following method is feasible. You could refer to it to design your program.

 

Code First Run Results

Related code:

internal class MyDbContext : DbContext

{

    public MyDbContext()

 

    {

 

    }

 

    public MyDbContext(DbContextOptions<MyDbContext> options)

 

        : base(options)

    {

 

    }

 

    public virtual DbSet<Student> Students { get; set; }

 

 

 

 

    protected override void OnConfiguring(DbContextOptionsBuilder optionsBuilder)

 

        => optionsBuilder.UseMySql("Write your database connection string", new MySqlServerVersion("8.0.38"));

 

    protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)

    {

        modelBuilder

            .UseCollation("utf8_unicode_ci")

            .HasCharSet("utf8");

 

        modelBuilder.Entity<Student>(entity =>

        {

            entity.HasKey(e => e.Id).HasName("PRIMARY");

 

            entity.ToTable("student");

 

            entity.Property(e => e.Id).HasColumnType("int(11)");

            entity.Property(e => e.Name).HasMaxLength(255);

        });

    }

}

 

internal class Student

{

        public int Id { get; set; }

 

        public string Name { get; set; }

}
