  • If you're using npgsql then make sure that Install-Package Npgsql.EntityFramework is installed. Commented Feb 4, 2016 at 9:11
  • I install it, but still can`t create edmx file. I can see in this video that it can be done. youtube.com/watch?v=ClLa1zP80Lc Commented Feb 4, 2016 at 9:21
  • Same question here. I know how to generate from MySQL or other database but something seems missing with Postgres. Commented Jun 27, 2016 at 9:24

I had the same issue. I have solved it by installing the Npgsql PostgreSQL Integration extension for Visual Studio.

You can download it directly from Visual Studio Marketplace at this link: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=RojanskyS.NpgsqlPostgreSQLIntegration

After installing it, I can now see the provider for PostgreSQL.

I think you have to install provider for Postgres:

https://github.com/npgsql/npgsql/releases?after=v3.1.2

With this I have:

Provider
