ProviderConventionSetBuilder Class

Definition

A service on the EF internal service provider that creates the ConventionSet for the current database provider. This is combined with IConventionSetPlugin instances to produce the full convention set exposed by the IConventionSetBuilder service.

This type is typically used by database providers (and other extensions). It is generally not used in application code.

Remarks

Database providers should implement this service by inheriting from either this class (for non-relational providers) or `RelationalConventionSetBuilder` (for relational providers).

The service lifetime is Scoped. This means that each DbContext instance will use its own instance of this service. The implementation may depend on other services registered with any lifetime. The implementation does not need to be thread-safe.

See Model building conventions for more information and examples.
