Live coding 4th session – Implementing backend with WebApi2 and EF Code First

/0 Comments/in /by

Implemented the backend as a RESTful service using WebApi2 and persistent storage to a SQL database with Entity Framework Code First. In the next session I’ll implement support for multiple users and authentication with facebook.

POST SCREENCAST EDIT

Forgot to setup automatic upgrading on application startup since I was using the package manager console in the screencast to setup the database. I added the following piece of code in commit 8be3b31:

Database.SetInitializer(new MigrateDatabaseToLatestVersion<AppDbContext, Configuration>());

 

Until next time, have a nice day!
