Have model contain field without adding it to the database? [closed]
Just decorate your field/property with [NotMapped].
For example:
public class MyModel{ public int Id { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } [NotMapped] public string Type { get; set; }}
That depends what framework you are using to access your data. I assume it's Entity Framework. Well, you can create partial class with the property that you wanty to not be mapped to your database.
something like
public class Class1{ string Text { get; set; } int Number { get; set; }}public partial class Class1{ bool IsSomething { get; set; }}but that is not advised. More:Entity Framework: add property that don't map to database
