Usage
Enable DateOnly and TimeOnly support by calling UseDateOnlyTimeOnly inside UseSqlServer. UseSqlServer is is typically called inside Startup.ConfigureServices or OnConfiguring of your DbContext type.
options.UseSqlServer(
connectionString,
x => x.UseDateOnlyTimeOnly());
Add DateOnly and TimeOnly properties to your entity types. Or reverse engineer a table with date and time columns.
class EventSchedule
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public DateOnly StartDate { get; set; }
public TimeOnly TimeOfDay { get; set; }
}
Insert data.
dbContext.Add(new EventSchedule { StartDate = new DateOnly(2022, 12, 24), TimeOfDay = new TimeOnly(12, 00) });
dbContext.SaveChanges();
Query.
var eventsOfTheDay = from e in dbContext.EventSchedules
where e.StartDate == new DateOnly(2022, 10, 12)
select e;
