Rask.SqlServer

SQL Server for a Rask app. UseRaskSqlServer(...) is a drop-in replacement for UseSqlServer that also wires a ConnectionOpened interceptor applying the production session settings — SET LOCK_TIMEOUT, SET XACT_ABORT ON — to every connection the context opens, sets a client command timeout, and turns on transient-failure retrying.

SQLite remains Rask's default, and for most single-developer products it is the right answer for a long time. This package is for the case where SQL Server is already the house database.

Install

dotnet add package Rask.SqlServer

Or scaffold a project that already uses it:

rask new Shop --data --database sqlserver

Use

builder.Services.AddDbContextFactory<AppDb>(o =>
    o.UseRaskSqlServer(builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("App")!));

Override any default via the optional configure delegate:

o.UseRaskSqlServer(connectionString, p =>
{
    p.CommandTimeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10);
    p.LockTimeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(3);
    p.AbortOnError = false;
});

What the defaults do

Setting Default Why
CommandTimeout 30s SQL Server has no server-side statement timeout, so this client-side ceiling is the only bound on a runaway query.
LockTimeout 10s The analogue of SQLite's busy_timeout. Without it, a statement stuck behind a lock waits out the command timeout and surfaces as a slow query — so you go reading query plans instead of finding what holds the lock.
AbortOnError true SET XACT_ABORT ON. With it off, a statement error inside an explicit transaction leaves that transaction open and holding locks until something rolls it back — and on a web app the connection returns to the pool in that state.
MaxRetryCount / MaxRetryDelay 6 / 30s SQL Server's own EnableRetryOnFailure, which already knows the transient error numbers including the Azure SQL failover set.

LockTimeout is validated to sit below CommandTimeout; above it the client gives up first and the lock signal is lost. Set LockTimeout to TimeSpan.Zero to wait indefinitely (the server default).

Not a mirror of Rask.Postgres

Deliberately. SQL Server has no server-side statement timeout and nothing corresponding to idle_in_transaction_session_timeout, so neither is invented here; what it does have, and PostgreSQL does not need, is XACT_ABORT. The two packages match in shape, not in knobs.

What stays behind

Litestream continuous backup and file snapshots (Rask.SQLite.Litestream, Rask.SQLite.Snapshots) are SQLite-only by definition — they replicate and copy a file. On SQL Server, backup is BACKUP DATABASE or your provider's snapshots; rask db backup will tell you so rather than pretend. rask db add / rask db update work unchanged, because they forward to dotnet ef.

See docs/databases.md for the full picture, including what changes when you run more than one instance.
