Question
I am using Entity Framework 7 on the nightly build channel (right now I'm using version EntityFramework.7.0.0-beta2-11524) and I'm trying to log the queries that EF generates just out of curiosity.
I'm writing a simple console program, I tried using the same logging technic that EF6 uses, but DbContext.Database.Logis not available on Entity Framework 7. Is there a way to log or just take a peek at the SQL generated by EF7?
Accepted Answer
For those using EF7 none of the above worked for me. But this is how i got it working. (from @avi cherry's comment)
In your Startup.cs you proably have a Configure method with a bunch of configurations in it. It should look like below (in addition to your stuff).
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, ILoggerFactory loggerFactory)
{
//this is the magic line
loggerFactory.AddDebug(LogLevel.Debug); // formerly LogLevel.Verbose
//your other stuff
}

You can log to the console using this code, I am sure it will be wrapped in a simpler api later:
using System;
using Microsoft.Data.Entity.Infrastructure;
using Microsoft.Data.Entity.Utilities;
using Microsoft.Framework.Logging;
public static class SqlCeDbContextExtensions
{
public static void LogToConsole(this DbContext context)
{
var loggerFactory = ((IAccessor<IServiceProvider>)context).GetService<ILoggerFactory>();
loggerFactory.AddProvider(new DbLoggerProvider());
}
}
And the DbLoggerProvider is implemented here: https://github.com/ErikEJ/EntityFramework7.SqlServerCompact/tree/master/src/Provider40/Extensions/Logging
