Scaffold-DbContext to different output folder

Question

I\'m implementing repository pattern in company solution I work for, separating model classes in a Backend project and database context and migrations in DbContexts project.

Answer 1

It is now possible to redirect the generated context with -ContextDir option:

-ContextDir The directory to put DbContext file in. Paths are relative to the project directory.

So in your case it would be something like this:

Scaffold-DbContext "*connection*" "*provider*" -OutputDir "BackendProject" -ContextDir "DbContexts"
