Informations about the package laravel-db-switch
Database Switch for Laravel and Lumen
Composer package for Laravel that enables easy replacement of database instance. The package is highly suitable for similar databases that run different copies of a same program.
This package is being developed and tested under Laravel 5.3, Laravel 5.4 and Lumen 5.4. However it should be compatible with the older releases of Laravel, expecting at least as versions 5.0.
Prerequisites
Composer
You will need composer to setup your project. You can skip this point most-likely, since it is a must for your Laravel or Lumen project, but if for some reason you are new to it you will find the official composer website very useful. You will find detailed documentation, use-cases and scenarios plus full instruction set about the downloading and installing composer, including all the download files needed.
Laravel/Lumen Project
We assume you have prepared and installed already your Laravel or Lumen project and you have navigated to its folder with your console/terminal application.
Installation
The package is installed in the traditional way through composer. You can do this by executing the following command in the folder of your Laravel project:
or if you have no global composer installation exists with your project, but simply composer.phar file:
The above should add the package with your project directly.
Alternatively, you can manually add rolice/laravel-db-switch in your composer.json file in the require section and then you will be able to install it with:
or again if no global composer installation exists:
Note: That you will have to replace /path/to/composer.phar in the examples above with the actual path where you have downloaded a copy of the official composer.phar. More information could be found on the previous section with the Prerequisites.
After you are ready with the package installation we have to enable the service provider inside the application config.
For Laravel: Just open the {your/project/folder}/config/app.php file of your application (by default should be located there).
Add the service provider inside the providers section (array):
Preferably under the comment like:
For Lumen: You should register the service provider inside bootstrap/app.php like:
For Laravel: Now you can register the facade in the section below named aliases (array), in the same file config/app.php by
adding the following like there:
For Lumen: You can enable facades and pass it along with:
...or you can directly enable it the same way, but with raw code, an example:
Now the package should be available and running with your project.
Usage
You can use the package service either through the facade DbSwitch or through the singleton instance inside the IoC
service container of Laravel:
That is the whole scope of this package.
Enjoy switching your databases! :P
