nopCommerce 4.30 BETA released. Please share your impressions

I am new to creating a plugin. I see this article that shows how to access data using nopcommerce versions 4.2 and below. I see IDbContext is used, but I don't see IDbContext in nopcommerce 4.3. Does anyone have any example of how to do this with version 4.3?
Thanks!!

public class ProductViewTrackerRecordObjectContext : DbContext, IDbContext

Thanks for the info... looking at some older plugin examples compared to new plugins with 4.3, I notice there are navigation properties that are no longer existing.. for example, customer used to have billing and shipping address, but these are gone now, correct?  Just want to make sure I'm not missing anything.

        public virtual Address BillingAddress { get; set; }
        public virtual Address ShippingAddress { get; set; }

hi primico,

you need a Builder Class for your new data entity, and a SchemaMigration class with 'Up()' method to create table in the db schema (code first)

Have a look at the FixedByWeightByTotal plugin source code as a reference point to see how it hangs together

Best regards
Jon

If you want the Plugin to create the tables when the Plugin installs then you need to create the SchemaMigration. The record builder defines the fields in the db.

As noted above look at the existing pluigns

If you have SSMS you can Generate a script to export the data from the table then run the script later on the newly created table
