public virtual Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbContextOptionsBuilder<TContext> UseInternalServiceProvider (IServiceProvider serviceProvider);public virtual Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbContextOptionsBuilder<TContext> UseInternalServiceProvider (IServiceProvider? serviceProvider);override this.UseInternalServiceProvider : IServiceProvider -> Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbContextOptionsBuilder<'Context (requires 'Context :> Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbContext)>Public Overridable Function UseInternalServiceProvider (serviceProvider As IServiceProvider) As DbContextOptionsBuilder(Of TContext)Parameters
- serviceProvider
- IServiceProvider
The service provider to be used.
Returns
The same builder instance so that multiple calls can be chained.
Remarks
The service provider must contain all the services required by Entity Framework (and the database being used). The Entity Framework services can be registered using an extension method on IServiceCollection. For example, the Microsoft SQL Server provider includes an AddEntityFrameworkSqlServer() method to add the required services.
If the IServiceProvider has a DbContextOptions or DbContextOptions<TContext> registered, then this will be used as the options for this context instance.
See Using DbContextOptions for more information and examples.
