Ozcorps.UuidV8.EntityFrameworkCore

Entity Framework Core integration for Ozcorps.UuidV8. Provides a ValueGenerator and IServiceCollection extensions for RFC 9562 UUIDv8 primary keys.

Installation

dotnet add package Ozcorps.UuidV8.EntityFrameworkCore

Usage

Just call HasUuidV8ValueGenerator() in your model configuration — no other setup required:

public class AppDbContext : DbContext
{
    protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
    {
        modelBuilder.Entity<Order>(e =>
            e.Property(o => o.Id).HasUuidV8ValueGenerator());
    }
}

Your entity just needs a Guid primary key — EF Core will generate it automatically on insert:

public class Order
{
    public Guid Id { get; set; }
    public string Description { get; set; } = "";
}

NodeId (optional)

NodeId is a 10-bit value (0–1023) that guarantees cross-machine uniqueness. When omitted (default), those bits are filled with random data — safe for single-node or low-collision scenarios.

To set a NodeId, call AddUuidV8 once at startup:

builder.Services.AddUuidV8(o => o.WithNodeId(1));

Why UUIDv8?

  • Time-ordered — sequential inserts, no index fragmentation
  • Monotonic — strict ordering within the same millisecond via a 12-bit sequence counter
  • Random tailRandomNumberGenerator-backed, no MAC address leakage
  • Standard — RFC 9562 compliant, works with any UUID-aware system
