Migrating DbConnectionFactory from .net to.net core

Question

I'm trying to migrate a small .net framework project to .net core one. But I've spent a couple of hours searching how to adopt the code below to .net core 2.0. But I was unlucky, because it seems that System.Data.Common functionality was cut for some reason. So, I've 2 problems here:

1. How to get provider name from connection string? Do we have ConnectionStringSettings for .net core 2.0

2. How can we get a factory base only on provider name string? Any other thought how to perform loosely coupled db connection factory

   public class ConnectionFactory
   {
       protected readonly DbProviderFactory Factory;
   
       protected readonly string ConnectionString;
   
       public ConnectionFactory(string connectionStringName)
       {
           var settings = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings[connectionStringName];
           this.Factory = DbProviderFactories.GetFactory(settings.ProviderName);
           this.ConnectionString = settings.ConnectionString;
       }
   
       public DbConnection Connection
       {
           get
           {
               var con = Factory.CreateConnection();
               con.ConnectionString = this.ConnectionString;
               return con;
           }
       }
   }
   

Answer 1

DbProviderFactories will be available in .net core 2.1 (2Q 2018).
