Currently, I'm using ASP Identity with MVC 5.I want to remove phone number field from the AspNetUsers table, but when I use add-migration command it causes the following error.
You cannot use Ignore method on the property 'PhoneNumber' on type 'Models.DbModel.User' because this type inherits from the type 'Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework.IdentityUser`
I have already read tons of questions on here, but all of them said you have to ignore property in your base class, however, I don't have any access to the base in this case.
How can I solve this problem?
Update: when I used fluent API inside the OnModelCreating method it worked, I don't want to use it this way so I separated the config class for each entity.
Below is my code:
Derived Entity Class
public class User: IdentityUser
{
public ICollection<Comment> Comments { get; set; }
}
Config class
public sealed class UserConfig : EntityTypeConfiguration<User>
{
public UserConfig()
{
ToTable("dbo", "Users");
Ignore(x => x.PhoneNumber);
Ignore(x => x.PhoneNumberConfirmed);
}
}
Context Class
public class WebsiteContext : IdentityDbContext
{
public WebsiteContext()
: base("XYZ")
{
}
public DbSet<Comment> Comment { get; set; }
//public DbSet<User> User { get; set; }
public static WebsiteContext Create()
{
return new WebsiteContext();
}
protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);
modelBuilder.Configurations.Add(new CommentConfig());
modelBuilder.Configurations.Add(new UserConfig());
}
}
Try the [NotMapped] attribute from System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.Schema This might get you around that limitation , it has been used to ignore Enums in the mapping, this might not be exactly what you want
