### Configuration and User Secrets

If you have an ASP.NET Core project, you can use the `Name=<connection-string>` syntax to read the connection string from configuration.
If you have a .NET application that uses the hosting model and configuration system, such as an ASP.NET Core project, then you can use the `Name=<connection-string>` syntax to read the connection string from configuration.

This works well with the [Secret Manager tool](/aspnet/core/security/app-secrets#secret-manager) to keep your database password separate from your codebase.

```dotnetcli
dotnet user-secrets init
dotnet user-secrets set ConnectionStrings:Chinook "Data Source=(localdb)\MSSQLLocalDB;Initial Catalog=Chinook"
dotnet ef dbcontext scaffold Name=ConnectionStrings:Chinook Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer
```
