Publishing LocalDb with ASP.NET Core 3.2 Applications Visual Studio 2019 Webdeploy

390 Views Asked by At

I have a test application running on ASP.NET Core 3.2 Blazor.

I need to publish the site to a staging url for first stage testing. For this test I want to keep the application running on the same localdb files uses in development.

the connection string for the database locally is

Server=(localdb)\\mssqllocaldb;Database=MyDatabase;Trusted_Connection=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=true

The files for the database are stored currently in C:\Users\{username}\MyDatabase.mdf (along with the _log.ldf file).

How can I move this into the publish process with Visual Studio please? Do I need to relocate the file to the project directory and publish this way? Equally how do I then setup the server to know the database is stored in the project folder?
