ASP.NET 5 MySql Support - mysql

I am developing a Green Field Application in ASP.NET 5 using Visual Studio 2015.
I want to know that if I am running it in Linux environment the database used is MySql Workbench
How we do this?
It is my core problem in doing this business.

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-net/en/connector-net-installation-unix.html
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-net/en/connector-net-installation.html
This page clearly mention that you can use Mysql.Data.dll on any framework. If mysql.data.dll library is not working for you. You can compile it yourself on your linux machine.

MySql support Linux environment also. So You will not face any major problem.
But yes, You will have to write Table & column names in small letter in your queries otherwise it will give error.

Visual Studio 2012 Entity Framework don't have MySQL Data Source Type

I'm using visual studio 2012 and installed MySQL 5.7 and all the developer tools. After I added EF 6.0 etc from Nuget and try to link to my database, MySQL is not part of the available data source as depicted below.
I can however, see the selection when trying to add connection at Server Explorer. May I know if anybody knows how to fix it? What have I missed? Thank you.
Update 1:
These are what I have installed.
After trying with my local PC and my VM, I found out the problem. Since I installed mysql-connector-net-6.10.5.msi, it's not supported. At my VM I had installed the mysql-connector-net-6.9.10.msi instead.
After changing the local PC to mysql-connector-net-6.9.10.msi, I'm able to see the data source. Is MySQL trying to phase out the support in the future?

Visual studio 2012 connect to MySQL server [duplicate]

I've been reading about mySQL DataSource and the ability to use mySQL with Entity Framework, but I can't really generate EF with mySQL without the use of the DataSource Dialog
How can I add mySQL Database to such dialog?
This is what I have done so far:
Installed mySQL Connector v.6.5.4
Restarted n-times my Windows 7 machine
Read all about how well mySQL Connector works on previous versions of Visual Studio
I have just read from mySQL Forums that mySQL will ship Visual Studio 2012 integration with mySQL Connector v.6.5.5
We'll be adding support for VS 2012 in Connector/NET 6.5.5 and later 6.6.x version

Using Visual Studio 2012 Professional
One clarification: Visual Studio Express DOES NOT support MySQL .NET Connector as extension.
You still may use it adding reference to MySql.Data.dll file that you may find in MySQL Connector installation folder (for me it was W:\Program Files\MySQL\Connector NET 6.5.4\Assemblies\v4.0).
After that you may use it like this:
using MySql.Data.MySqlClient;
...
var mycon = new MySqlConnection();
According to this page: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/
"Starting with version 6.7, Connector/Net will no longer include the MySQL for Visual Studio integration. That functionality is now available in a separate product called MySQL for Visual Studio available using the MySQL Installer for Windows (see http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/mysql-installer-for-windows.html)."
Visual Studio 2012 is not yet supported by MySQL Connector v.6.5.4. You can't add a connection to MySQL in the Server Explorer to begin with.
According on this post, support will be added on MySQL Connector v.6.5.5
Connector/NET 6.5.5 does not support VS2012, but Connector/NEt 6.6.x does.
However Visual Studio Express editions are not supported, hence the only way to work in Entity Framework and Visual Studio Express and MySql (or other database different than SQL Server for that matter) is using code first.
It wouldn't matter if you had the MySQL driver showing as far as I can tell. I'm running VS 2012.3 and if I try to create a Data Connection in VS Server Browser, I can get as far as selecting the MySQL driver and no more. If I try typing a servername/username/password (any of the fields), the window just disappears and YES, it's only when the MySQL driver is being used so NO it's not vs (not exclusively) causing the problem. Go ahead and say that it's my environment but you'd not be able to justify that even remotely compared to the FACT of what is happening. ALL my other software/extentions/add-in/libraries work just fine. No surprise either seeing how buggy the "3 minute" Windows Installer was. Had to uninstall/reinstall a server instance to get to the configuration wizard and there is no other apparent way to configure an instance without it. I'd rather have the old setup. /rant

dll files for creating a setup

I 'm working on an application using rad studio 2009 (c++) and mySQL. I want to build a setup so I can set up my application and on other PCs without installing and rad studio. As far as I 've searched, I will need some dlls. Does anyone know what dlls? I couldn't find out...
please help!
For C++ Builder if you don't use runtime packages and you link against the static RTL then you don't need to supply anything beyond the compiled .exe.
I couldn't say what you need for the database connection, but I imagine it is documented and Johan has provided you with an answer that addresses this part of your question.
Dependency Walker can be used to investigate the dependencies.
You need libmySQL.dll
and if you're using dbExpress you'll also need: dbxmys.dll
If you're using ZEOS you'll only need the libMySQL.dll, but AFAIK only ZEOS 7 alpha works in Unicode Delphi/C++ Builder
Be careful to make sure libMySQL.dll is is the exact version that goes with the MySQL server you are connecting against.

Use webdeploy from VS2010 to publish a MySql database

I'm using the WebDeploy tool from Visual Studio 2010 since a few weeks and really like it. I was now trying to deploy my database as well using the 'Package/Publish SQL' tab. However, my current project uses a MySQL database and it seems that web deploy from VS is only compatible using MSSQL (sigh).
So my question is: can I get it to deploy my MySQL database? I know there is a custom 'dbFullMySql' provider, but not sure if this can integrate into VS2010. Thanks.
could this be of help to you http://blogs.iis.net/msdeploy/archive/2009/04/29/changes-to-the-custom-provider-for-mysql-dbfullmysql.aspx
