I have not found any clea

Answer 1

So we do something similar in our samples package in the following way (To seed the db with our admin user)

public class ApplicationDbContext : IdentityDbContext
{
    public ApplicationDbContext()
        : base("DefaultConnection", throwIfV1Schema: false)
    {
    }

    static ApplicationDbContext()
    {
        // Set the database intializer which is run once during application start
        // This seeds the database with admin user credentials and admin role
        Database.SetInitializer(new ApplicationDbInitializer());
    }

    public static ApplicationDbContext Create()
    {
        return new ApplicationDbContext();
    }
}

// This is useful if you do not want to tear down the database each time you run the application.
// public class ApplicationDbInitializer : DropCreateDatabaseAlways
// This example shows you how to create a new database if the Model changes
public class ApplicationDbInitializer : DropCreateDatabaseIfModelChanges 
{
    protected override void Seed(ApplicationDbContext context) {
        DoYourSeedingHere(context);
        base.Seed(context);
    }

}
