Migrations are enabled by default in EF Core. They are managed by executing commands. If you have Visual Studio, you can use the Package Manager Console (PMC) to manage migrations. Alternatively, you can use a command line tool to execute Entity Framework CLI commands to create a migration.
Entity Framework can be useful for getting up and running quickly with a database application, but when it comes to deployment, EF's built-in data migration feature doesn't inspire confidence.
There are a couple options:
dotnet ef migrations script and run it on your production database.dbContext.Database.Migrate() at runtime during application startup (but be careful when running multiple apps/database clients)Also, in the next release (1.0.0-preview3) of Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools, we'll be shipping ef.exe which you can point directly to assemblies (instead of project.json files) to perform migrations.
