Applying Migration using Different DBContext

In case you are using several DbContext classes in Entity Framework Core, at that time, you may have to create migrations for different contexts individually. This helps in making a right check against each context’s schema into each respective database.

Here’s how to apply migrations for different DbContexts:

• In Visual Studio > Package Manager Console

• Add-Migration InitialCreate -Context AppDbContext

• Add-Migration AuditLogCreate -Context AuditDbContext

• Using .NET CLI

• dotnet ef database update --context AppDbContext

• dotnet ef database update --context AuditDbContext

• In Visual Studio > Package Manager Console

• Update-Database -Context AppDbContext

• Update-Database -Context AuditDbContext

• Using .NET CLI

• dotnet ef database update --context AppDbContext

• dotnet ef database update --context AuditDbContext

By following these steps you are able to manage and apply migrations for any number of DbContext classes in project to Entity Framework Core at a different section of your application’s data model.
