Description
Today i wanted to start with a simple blazor app. However it seems that the syntax for loading the connection string has been changed in .NET 6.
The current way is:
However this seems to generate a CS0103 The name 'Configuration' does not exist in the current context
. The namespace Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration
is imported.
In .NET 6 the code seems to be the following instead of the current sample. However this generates the error.
builder.Services.AddDbContext<AppDbContext>(options =>
{
options.UseSqlServer(Configuration.GetConnectionString("BloggingDatabase"));
});
Steps to reproduce.
- In VS2022 create a new "Blazor server app" or "Blazor webassembly app" (when creating a "Blazor webassembly app" be shure to select the "ASP.NET Core hosted" checkbox)
- Set the framework to .NET 6.0
- Open "Program.cs"
- Try to set the connection string.
Update: If you use the "Individual accounts" template the correct syntax is generated
var connectionString = builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("DefaultConnection");
builder.Services.AddDbContext<ApplicationDbContext>(options =>
options.UseSqlServer(connectionString));
