[EF Core Power Tools] Support for MySQL, Oracle and others

[AllanTee]

See PR #645 for an example of how this could be done.

Requires:

• DDEX provider + full .NET Framework ADO.NET provider.
• EF Core 2.x provider that implements IDesignTimeServices

Not at the moment, no. Command line ? (if it is an available feature in your MySql provider)

Looks like the building blocks are present, let me know if you would be able to help test this?

Hi Erik,

The Pomelo thing works. At least it connected to external MySQL database and did the "Scaffold-DbContext" miracle, which I needed. Thank You very much!!!
Consider to develop MySQL support to your tool as well. :-)
