EF Core Mapping EntityTypeConfiguration

Question

In EF6 we usually able to use this way to configure the Entity.

public class AccountMap : EntityTypeConfiguration
{
    public AccountMap()

In Entity Framework Core 2.0:

I took Cocowalla's answer and adapted it for v2.0:

    public static class ModelBuilderExtenions
    {
        private static IEnumerable GetMappingTypes(this Assembly assembly, Type mappingInterface)
        {
            return assembly.GetTypes().Where(x => !x.IsAbstract && x.GetInterfaces().Any(y => y.GetTypeInfo().IsGenericType && y.GetGenericTypeDefinition() == mappingInterface));
        }

        public static void AddEntityConfigurationsFromAssembly(this ModelBuilder modelBuilder, Assembly assembly)
        {
            // Types that do entity mapping
            var mappingTypes = assembly.GetMappingTypes(typeof(IEntityTypeConfiguration<>));

            // Get the generic Entity method of the ModelBuilder type
            var entityMethod = typeof(ModelBuilder).GetMethods()
                .Single(x => x.Name == "Entity" &&
                        x.IsGenericMethod &&
                        x.ReturnType.Name == "EntityTypeBuilder`1");

            foreach (var mappingType in mappingTypes)
            {
                // Get the type of entity to be mapped
                var genericTypeArg = mappingType.GetInterfaces().Single().GenericTypeArguments.Single();

                // Get the method builder.Entity
                var genericEntityMethod = entityMethod.MakeGenericMethod(genericTypeArg);

                // Invoke builder.Entity to get a builder for the entity to be mapped
                var entityBuilder = genericEntityMethod.Invoke(modelBuilder, null);

                // Create the mapping type and do the mapping
                var mapper = Activator.CreateInstance(mappingType);
                mapper.GetType().GetMethod("Configure").Invoke(mapper, new[] { entityBuilder });
            }
        }


    }

And it's used in the DbContext like this:

    protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
    {
        modelBuilder.AddEntityConfigurationsFromAssembly(GetType().Assembly);
    }

And this is how you create an entity type configuration for an entity:

    public class UserUserRoleEntityTypeConfiguration : IEntityTypeConfiguration
    {
        public void Configure(EntityTypeBuilder builder)
        {
            builder.ToTable("UserUserRole");
            // compound PK
            builder.HasKey(p => new { p.UserId, p.UserRoleId });
        }
    }
