Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore

Assembly:

Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.InMemory.dll

Package:

Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.InMemory v8.0.0

Overloads

UseInMemoryDatabase(DbContextOptionsBuilder, String, Action<InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>)	Configures the context to connect to a named in-memory database. The in-memory database is shared anywhere the same name is used, but only for a given service provider. To use the same in-memory database across service providers, call UseInMemoryDatabase(DbContextOptionsBuilder, String, InMemoryDatabaseRoot, Action<InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>) passing a shared InMemoryDatabaseRoot on which to root the database.
UseInMemoryDatabase(DbContextOptionsBuilder, String, InMemoryDatabaseRoot, Action<InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>)	Configures the context to connect to a named in-memory database. The in-memory database is shared anywhere the same name is used, but only for a given service provider.
UseInMemoryDatabase<TContext>(DbContextOptionsBuilder<TContext>, String, Action<InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>)	Configures the context to connect to an in-memory database. The in-memory database is shared anywhere the same name is used, but only for a given service provider. To use the same in-memory database across service providers, call UseInMemoryDatabase<TContext>(DbContextOptionsBuilder<TContext>, String, InMemoryDatabaseRoot, Action<InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>) passing a shared InMemoryDatabaseRoot on which to root the database.
UseInMemoryDatabase<TContext>(DbContextOptionsBuilder<TContext>, String, InMemoryDatabaseRoot, Action<InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>)	Configures the context to connect to an in-memory database. The in-memory database is shared anywhere the same name is used, but only for a given service provider.

UseInMemoryDatabase(DbContextOptionsBuilder, String, Action<InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>)

Configures the context to connect to a named in-memory database. The in-memory database is shared anywhere the same name is used, but only for a given service provider. To use the same in-memory database across service providers, call UseInMemoryDatabase(DbContextOptionsBuilder, String, InMemoryDatabaseRoot, Action<InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>) passing a shared InMemoryDatabaseRoot on which to root the database.

static member UseInMemoryDatabase : Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbContextOptionsBuilder * string * Action<Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Infrastructure.InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder> -> Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbContextOptionsBuilder

<Extension()>
Public Function UseInMemoryDatabase (optionsBuilder As DbContextOptionsBuilder, databaseName As String, Optional inMemoryOptionsAction As Action(Of InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder) = Nothing) As DbContextOptionsBuilder

Parameters

optionsBuilder

DbContextOptionsBuilder

The builder being used to configure the context.

databaseName

String

The name of the in-memory database. This allows the scope of the in-memory database to be controlled independently of the context. The in-memory database is shared anywhere the same name is used.

inMemoryOptionsAction

Action<InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>

An optional action to allow additional in-memory specific configuration.

Returns

DbContextOptionsBuilder

The options builder so that further configuration can be chained.

Remarks

See Using DbContextOptions, and The EF Core in-memory database provider for more information and examples.

UseInMemoryDatabase(DbContextOptionsBuilder, String, InMemoryDatabaseRoot, Action<InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>)

Configures the context to connect to a named in-memory database. The in-memory database is shared anywhere the same name is used, but only for a given service provider.

public static Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbContextOptionsBuilder UseInMemoryDatabase (this Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbContextOptionsBuilder optionsBuilder, string databaseName, Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Storage.InMemoryDatabaseRoot? databaseRoot, Action<Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Infrastructure.InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>? inMemoryOptionsAction = default);

static member UseInMemoryDatabase : Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbContextOptionsBuilder * string * Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Storage.InMemoryDatabaseRoot * Action<Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Infrastructure.InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder> -> Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbContextOptionsBuilder

<Extension()>
Public Function UseInMemoryDatabase (optionsBuilder As DbContextOptionsBuilder, databaseName As String, databaseRoot As InMemoryDatabaseRoot, Optional inMemoryOptionsAction As Action(Of InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder) = Nothing) As DbContextOptionsBuilder

Parameters

optionsBuilder

DbContextOptionsBuilder

The builder being used to configure the context.

databaseName

String

The name of the in-memory database. This allows the scope of the in-memory database to be controlled independently of the context. The in-memory database is shared anywhere the same name is used.

databaseRoot

InMemoryDatabaseRoot

All in-memory databases will be rooted in this object, allowing the application to control their lifetime. This is useful when sometimes the context instance is created explicitly with new while at other times it is resolved using dependency injection.

inMemoryOptionsAction

Action<InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>

An optional action to allow additional in-memory specific configuration.

Returns

DbContextOptionsBuilder

The options builder so that further configuration can be chained.

Remarks

See Using DbContextOptions, and The EF Core in-memory database provider for more information and examples.

UseInMemoryDatabase<TContext>(DbContextOptionsBuilder<TContext>, String, Action<InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>)

Configures the context to connect to an in-memory database. The in-memory database is shared anywhere the same name is used, but only for a given service provider. To use the same in-memory database across service providers, call UseInMemoryDatabase<TContext>(DbContextOptionsBuilder<TContext>, String, InMemoryDatabaseRoot, Action<InMemoryDbContextOptionsBuilder>) passing a shared InMemoryDatabaseRoot on which to root the database.

Type Parameters
