Remarks

The service lifetime is Scoped. This means that each DbContext instance will use its own instance of this service. The implementation may depend on other services registered with any lifetime. The implementation does not need to be thread-safe.

See Modeling entity types and relationships for more information and examples.

Properties

Item[String]	Gets the value of the annotation with the given name, returning `null` if it does not exist. (Inherited from IReadOnlyAnnotatable)
ModelDependencies	The runtime service dependencies.
ModelId	This is an internal API that supports the Entity Framework Core infrastructure and not subject to the same compatibility standards as public APIs. It may be changed or removed without notice in any release. You should only use it directly in your code with extreme caution and knowing that doing so can result in application failures when updating to a new Entity Framework Core release. (Inherited from IReadOnlyModel)
