When querying SQL with EF6 from a WebJob, query fails because it's trying to get a pluralized version of the table - entity-framework-6

Question

My code looks like this:
public static void DoSomething(TextWriter log)
{
log.WriteLine("Hey man! I'm running!");
try
{
using (MyDBContext context = new MyDBContext())
{
MemberMaster mm = context.MemberMaster.SingleOrDefault(m => m.MemberMasterId == 1);
if (mm != null)
{
log.WriteLine(string.Format("MemberMasterId = {0}, Username = {1}", mm.MemberMasterId, mm.UserName));
}
else
{
log.WriteLine("Could not find Member with MembermasterId = 1");
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
log.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}
log.WriteLine("Done!");
}
MyDBContext.cs looks like this:
public class MyDBContext : DbContext
{
public MyDBContext() : this("MyDb")
{
}
public MyDBContext(string connectionName) : base(connectionName) { }
public DbSet<MemberMaster> MemberMaster { get; set; }
}
I've tried to add a modelBuilder to remove Pluralizing names but that simply results in an error about the DB Context having changed....use code first...etc..etc...
Is there a better way to do this? The WebJob is being deployed via AZure with a .ZIP file and resides in the same AppService as my Website.

Answer 1

I turn off plurallizing on Sets and Tables by overriding the OnModelCreating, to keep both named the same, and have had no problem:
public class MyDBContext : DbContext
{
static MyDBContext()
{
Database.SetInitializer<DbContext>(null);
}
public MyDBContext() : this("MyDb")
{
}
public MyDBContext(string connectionName) : base(connectionName) { }
public DbSet<MemberMaster> MemberMaster { get; set; }
protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
modelBuilder.Conventions.Remove<PluralizingEntitySetNameConvention>();
modelBuilder.Conventions.Remove<PluralizingTableNameConvention>();
base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);
}
}
