Is it possible to set a unique constraint using Entity Framework Code First?

Question

I want to enforce Unique constraint in a table & I am using Entity Framework Code-First.

Is it possible to add a unique constraint using EF 6 as i believe in earlier versions it was not possible.

Answer 1

It appears that the unique constraint feature that was scheduled to release with Version 6 got pushed to 6.1.

With EF 6.1, you can define a constraint using the Index attribute as shown below:

[Index("IX_FirstAndSecond", 1, IsUnique = true)] public int FirstColumn { get; set; }  [Index("IX_FirstAndSecond", 2, IsUnique = true)] public int SecondColumn { get; set; } 

OR

You can use Fluent API as shown here in MSDN
