i tried i was thinking it was not connecting but it actually was but the problem is i cannot send normal post method to database i can send post method but i need to add this to the dbcontext

 protected override void OnConfiguring(DbContextOptionsBuilder optionsbuilder)
{
    optionsbuilder.UseNpgsql("ConnectionString"
        , option =>
    {
        option.EnableRetryOnFailure();
    }
    );

    base.OnConfiguring(optionsbuilder);
}

 protected override void OnConfiguring(DbContextOptionsBuilder optionsbuilder)
{
    optionsbuilder.UseNpgsql("ConnectionString"
        , option =>
    {
        option.EnableRetryOnFailure();
    }
    );

    base.OnConfiguring(optionsbuilder);
}

cs 
option.EnableRetryOnFailure()

cs 
option.EnableRetryOnFailure()

without this code it doesn't work and it gives exception again but it registers the data also i waited like 1 minute to register the data

what exception?

SalightOP•2mo ago

InnerException = {"23505: duplicate key value violates unique constraint \"PK_AspNetUsers\"\r\n\r\nDETAIL: Detail redacted as it may contain sensitive data. Specify 'Include Error Detail' in the connection string to include this information."}

That error has nothing to do with failing to connect. It is telling you that you are breaking a unique constraint on whatever table you are modifying for example, trying to insert the same record twice when you require unique names or something similar

SalightOP•2mo ago

oh okay thank you for the help

Keswiik•2mo ago

you should really pay more attention to errors like this as they are usually pretty helpful

SalightOP•2mo ago

but it is running really slow why is that

Keswiik•2mo ago

not something i can diagnose for you ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ you are interacting with a remotely hosted database so it could be any number of things

SalightOP•2mo ago

maybe it is because of that thank you i will look into that more deeply

Keswiik•2mo ago

- slow network on your side - slow network / networking issues on the provider side - not enough resources given to the database so it takes a long time to process data - etc if this is just for simple development you'd probably be better off hosting a postgres database locally very easy to set one up using docker

SalightOP•2mo ago

can i use that in production ?

Keswiik•2mo ago

no, but they are great for development and you shouldn't be developing / writing your software against your production database anyways nor should you be letting client applications connect directly to the database

SalightOP•2mo ago

damn it is getting more complex why tho

Keswiik•2mo ago

because that means anyone with enough time can figure out your database credentials, log in with them, and do whatever they wanted with the data

SalightOP•2mo ago

then you are saying u have to use public key and url?

Keswiik•2mo ago

no, I'm saying your database access should be hidden behind some service / api layer so that clients are not directly communicating with your database what kind of product are you trying to make? what is accessing your database?

SalightOP•2mo ago

i mean i don't understand i just asked 5 days ago is it secure to keep my database crediantials in appsettings.json they said it is now you confused me is it this thing i am doing is api

Keswiik•2mo ago

then you're fine, I said don't let clients connect directly to the database that is not what your API is i still stand by saying that you should be using different databases for development and production though

SalightOP•2mo ago

we want to publish a website but we don't know which database we have to use we don't have enough budget so the supabase was free we lean to that

Keswiik•2mo ago

you are likely not going to get good performance running with the free tier of any database provider not enough for a serious, released product (this is assuming people are paying for it)

SalightOP•2mo ago

true but lets just make the start so is it secure to connect the database with connection string?

Keswiik•2mo ago

yes, assuming that isn't being exposed to clients if it is all hidden behind your API then you're fine

SalightOP•2mo ago

then also my appsettings json is in secure too right ?

Keswiik•2mo ago

yes, that is normal

SalightOP•2mo ago

okay then i will dig into the first problem thank you a lot bud you helped me a lot
