Reverse engineering for EF Core is supported via
Entity Developer shipped with the dotConnect for PostgreSQL installation. You can run it in the following way: right click your project in Solution Explorer > Add > New Item > Data > Devart EF Core Model, then follow the wizard steps to create a model. Does this help?
Generating a model via
Package Manager Console is currently not supported.

It does not help me right now. Could you tell me when I can use scaffold with EF Core and dotConnect for PostgreSQL?

Could you please specify the exact problem you have encountered with Entity Developer?
We recommend you to use Entity Developer (Devart Entity Model, *.edml) instead of EDM Designer (ADO.NET Entity Data Model, *.edmx) because it is adjusted for working with PostgreSQL and has an advanced functionality:

how do I map the associations (navigation properties) using the entity developer?
Also, always I get the error below, using the develepor entity.

1. Please specify the DDL script of test tables for reproducing the error.
2. Tell us your current version (x.x.x) of dotConnect for PostgreSQL. You can check it via Tools > PostgreSQL > About.
3. What version (x.x.x) and capacity (32-bit or 64-bit) of PostgreSQL Server are you working with?

Thank you for the DDL script. I have added all database objects to *.efml (Devart EF Core Model) via Create Model Wizard: all associations are valid (just some tables do not have primary keys). Please specify the exact steps we should follow to reproduce the "operator is not unique: smallint[] @> smallint[]" error in our environment.

Gif with steps to reproduce the problem.
I used the same database I sent to you.

I found the cause of the error. The error occurs if, in the database, the extension intarray is installed.

What have I do to use Entity Developer with extension intarray installed?
