Is the MigrationsAssembly() statement required when using a separate migration project if you aren't migrating in your app
I was looking through the documentation for moving migrations to another project so that I can build my project without the migrations and speed up my builds when I don't need to run migrations.
However the documentation instructs you to add the migration project as a dependency and reference it when constructing your dbcontext with x.MigrationsAssembly("WebApplication1.Migrations").
My question is:
Is it really required to add x.MigrationsAssembly("WebApplication1.Migrations") if I'm not going to run the migrations in my app? From what I can tell the queries seem to run fine without this but I don't want to assume anything.
My plan is to build a separate project that I can run my migrations from so I only need to build the migrations when I go to use them.
It seems others have been successful at doing this: https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues/2174#issuecomment-1483833787
Note from triage: putting on the backlog to see if we can make this better.
@MikaelEliasson Regarding your comment: https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues/2174#issuecomment-1483833787 I'm curious how your approach has held up over time? Have you ran into any issues or has it been smooth sailing?
Only smooth sailing so far except some Devs not unloading that project and still wasting time.
We also generate and apply migrations through yarn commands so we almost never need to load the project.
