Using Guid Column as Primary Key - schotime/NPoco GitHub Wiki

• Property type should be System.Guid
  • public Guid UserId { get; set; }
• AutoIncrement should be set to true
  • [PrimaryKey("UserId", AutoIncrement = true)]
• You do not need to initialize the property in the constructor
  • //// Not necessary - this.UserId = Guid.NewGuid();

Example

[TableName("Users")]
[PrimaryKey("UserId", AutoIncrement = true)]
public class User
{
    public Guid UserId { get;set; }

    [Column("emailAddress")]
    public string Email { get;set; }

    [ResultColumn]
    public string ExtraInfo { get;set; }

    [Ignore]
    public int Temp { get;set; }
}

Table Design

To create the column in SQL Server, ensure the following settings:

• Data Type: uniqueidentifier
• Allow Nulls: false
• RowGuid: Yes
• Default Value or Binding: (newid())
