EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite.Legacy.Ef31
EF Core 3.1 (netstandard2.0) package for legacy encrypted SQLite integration through the bridge host.
Install
dotnet add package EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite.Legacy.Ef31
When this package is the right choice
Use this package when you are maintaining legacy/mid-life systems that still run EF Core 3.1 and cannot migrate framework/runtime immediately.
Typical scenarios:
- long-lived enterprise applications
- large-scale on-prem modules with frozen runtime constraints
- systems with old encrypted
.db3files (RC4/RSA legacy profiles)
If you are already on .NET 10 + EF Core 10, use:
EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite.Legacy
Basic usage
using EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite.Legacy;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
var options = new DbContextOptionsBuilder<MyDbContext>()
.UseSqliteLegacy(@"C:\data\legacy.db3", "legacy-password")
.Options;
Host bootstrap (recommended)
SqliteLegacyDbContextOptionsExtensions.SetupBridgeHost();
Default host release source:
https://github.com/matheushoske/Sqlite.LegacyBridge.Host/releases/latest/download/Sqlite.LegacyBridge.Host.zip
Architecture summary
EF Core 3.1 → ADO bridge → Named pipes → Sqlite.LegacyBridge.Host (net462) → System.Data.SQLite
Production notes
- Keep host/native binaries together in
legacy/ - Validate original encryption mode and password provisioning
- Use baseline-first migration strategy in legacy DBs
- Prefer explicit SQL for provider-incompatible migration operations
