Cannot enable migrations for Entity Framework in class library

Question

I just got on board with EF 5 and am using their code-first migrations tool but I seem to get an error when I try to enable migrations.

I type Enable-Migration

Answer 1

There are actually 3 ways to make Nuget commands run in a specific project:

1. [Package Manager Console] Set the active project in the dropdown at the top of the console toolwindow
2. [Package Manager Console] Look for a parameter to specify the project. For some cmdlets I've seen -ProjectName and some use -Project
3. [Solution Explorer] Right-click the project you want, and use the graphical package manager window (Manage NuGet Packages...).

Answer 2

Oh wow, nevermind. I'm dumb.

In the Nuget package manager console there is a dropdown menu at the top labeled "Default Project:". Make sure you set that to the project you want to run the command against.

Hopefully this helps someone else avoid my embarrassing mistake.
