Configure OData property to have type Date instead of DateTime

Question

I'm following this "guide" on how to expose Date (not DateTime) in your ODataController

However I don't quite get how I should implement the .AsDate() extension method

public static class PrimitivePropertyConfigurationExtensions 
{ 
  public static PrimitivePropertyConfiguration AsDate(this PrimitivePropertyConfiguration property)
  {…}

  public static PrimitivePropertyConfiguration AsTimeOfDay(this PrimitivePropertyConfiguration property)
  {…}
} 

What goes in the ... place? Am I missing something obvious?

None of the methods on property seem to make sense.

Answer 1

As per Date & time mapping with EF

2 Fluent API

public static class PrimitivePropertyConfigurationExtensions 
{ 
  public static PrimitivePropertyConfiguration AsDate(this PrimitivePropertyConfiguration property)
  {
    property.HasColumnType("date");
  }

  public static PrimitivePropertyConfiguration AsTimeOfDay(this PrimitivePropertyConfiguration property)
  {
    property.HasColumnType("time");
  }
}
