Error on MacOS The entity type 'X' requires a primary key to be defined

Asked 2 years ago, Updated 2 years ago, 433 views

I have created a sample app (MvcMovie) according to the official tutorial and
The following command displays a heading error:

 dotnet-aspnet-codegenerator controller-name MoviesController-m Movie-dc MvcMovieContext --relativeFolderPathControllers --useDefaultLayout --referenceScriptLibraries-sqlite
Building project...
Finding the generator 'controller'...
Running the generator 'controller'...
Generating a new DbContext class 'MvcMovieContext'
Attempting to compile the application in memory with the added DbContext.
Attempting to configure out the EntityFramework metadata for the model and DbContext: 'Movie'
The entity type 'Movie' requirements a primary key to be defined. If you extended to use a keyless entity type, call 'HasNoKey' in 'OnModelCreating'.For more information on keyless entity types, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2141943.StackTrace:

Put [Key] over "Id" and then the Scaffolding command
→ It does not resolve and displays the same error as the title

If there is an "Id" in the first place, it is automatically determined as the PrimaryKey, so

The entity type'X' requirements a primary key to be defined
There shouldn't be any errors?

·Models/Movie.cs

using System;
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;

namespace MvcMovie.Models
{
    public class movie
    {
        [Key]
        public int Id {get;set;}
        public string title {get;set;}
        public string Genre {get;set;}
        public decimal price {get;set;}

        DataType (DataType.Date)
        public DateTime ReleaseDate {get;set;}
    }
}

Call "HasNoKey" in OnModelCreating and then the Scaffolding Command
→ It does not resolve and displays the same error as the title

The error states that "OnModelCreating" should call "HasNoKey" but
Am I correct in understanding that the call is MvcMovieContext?

However, the contradiction is that "MvcMovieContext" is a class created upon successful scanning.

I believe that MvcMovieContext must be created before performing the scafolding, since the DBContext Class to be used is also required when performing scafolding from the right-click menu of the controller folder.
Add New Scaffolding

Also, the site I referred to made my own MvcMovieContext before the Scaffolding command.
Note: Tried the ASP.NET Core 5.0 MVC tutorial carefully ( (Add model and create DB)
他 Many other sites have created their own Context class.

However, creating "MvcMovieContext" earlier did not resolve the issue and
A heading error has been displayed.

·Data/MvcMovieContext

using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
using MvcMovie.Models;

namespace MvcMovie.Data
{
    public class MvcMovieContext:DbContext
    {
        public MvcMovieContext(DbContextOptions<MvcMovieContext>options)
            : base(options)
        {
        }
        public DbSet<Movie>Movie {get;set;}

        protected override void OnModelCreating (ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
        {
            modelBuilder.Entity<Movie().HasKey(m=>new{m.Id});
        }
    }
}

            public string title {get;set;}
            public string Genre {get;set;}
            Column (TypeName="decimal(5,2)") // Add
            public decimal price {get;set;}
    
            DataType (DataType.Date)
            public DateTime ReleaseDate {get;set;}
        }
