I'm working on my first application in .Net Core.
I'm getting this build error for some reason:
Error CS7036 There is no argument given that corresponds to the required formal parameter 'options' of 'LakeViewContext.LakeViewContext(DbContextOptions<LakeViewContext>)' LakeView
I wasn't able to find a solution through Google Search or MS documentation.
My Context class:
using LakeView.Models;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
namespace LakeView
{
public class LakeViewContext : DbContext
{
public LakeViewContext(DbContextOptions<LakeViewContext> options) : base(options)
{
}
public DbSet<HTMLElement> HTMLElements { get; set; }
public DbSet<CustomizedElement> CustomizedElements { get; set; }
public DbSet<TemplateFileType> TemplateFileTypes { get; set; }
public DbSet<StyleFile> StyleFiles { get; set; }
public DbSet<Template> Templates { get; set; }
public DbSet<Course> Courses { get; set; }
public DbSet<Page> Pages { get; set; }
public DbSet<HTML> HTMLs { get; set; }
public DbSet<Comment> Comments { get; set; }
protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
modelBuilder.Entity<CustomizedElementTemplate>()
.HasKey(s => new { s.CustomizedElementId, s.TemplateId });
base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);
}
}
}
Controller class:
using LakeView.Models;
using LakeView.Models.ViewModels;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
namespace LakeView.Controllers
{
public class CoursesController : Controller
{
private LakeViewContext db = new LakeViewContext();
public IActionResult Index()
{
ICollection<Course> courses = db.Courses.ToList();
return View(courses);
}
[HttpGet]
public IActionResult CreateCourse()
{
return View("CreateCourse");
}
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public IActionResult CreateCourse(CreateCourseViewModel courseVM)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
Course newCourse = new Course()
{
CourseCode = courseVM.CourseCode,
CourseTitle = courseVM.CourseTitle,
MasterOU = int.Parse(courseVM.MasterOU)
};
db.Courses.Add(newCourse);
db.SaveChanges();
return RedirectToAction("Index");
}
return View("CreateCourse", courseVM);
}
}
}
(bold text is underlined in Visual Studio with the same error
"private LakeViewContext db = new LakeViewContext();"
Startup class:
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging;
using LakeView.Models;
namespace LakeView
{
public class Startup
{
// This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to add services to the container.

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services.AddMvc();
var connection = @"Data Source = (localdb)\MSSQLLocalDB; Database = LakeViewData; Trusted_Connection = True;";
services.AddDbContext<LakeViewContext>(options => options.UseSqlServer(connection));
}
// This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to configure the HTTP request pipeline.
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env, ILoggerFactory loggerFactory)
{
//loggerFactory.AddConsole();
if (env.IsDevelopment())
{
app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
}
app.UseStaticFiles();
app.UseMvcWithDefaultRoute();
}
}
}
LakeViewContext
expects a DbContextOptions<LakeViewContext>
to be passed into its constructor. However, you are calling the constructor without providing anything:
private LakeViewContext db = new LakeViewContext();
To fix the issue, you can just plug into the Dependency Injection system that you've set up. To do this, change your controller as follows:
public class CoursesController : Controller
{
private readonly LakeViewContext db;
public CoursesController(LakeVieContext db)
{
this.db = db;
}
...
The ASP.NET Core Dependency Injection system will provide you with a LakeViewContext
in the constructor - Just use that.
