BTCPayServer Migrations

Creating Migrations

• Run dotnet ef migrations add <migration-name> to generate the migration.
• Copy the class attributes from the generated .Designer.cs file to the .cs migration file.
• Remove the generated .Designer.cs file.
• Remove the Down() method.
• Do not use migrationBuilder.IsNpgsql(); assume PostgreSQL is used.
• If a migration cannot be generated through dotnet ef migrations, add a migration file prefixed by date in the Migrations folder, for example 20260525115757_passkey.cs, and use migrationBuilder.Sql to run raw SQL.
• Follow postgres naming conventions.
