Console commands

The package comes with some useful artisan commands.

Tenant-aware commands run for all tenants by default. The commands also have the --tenants option which lets you specify IDs of the tenants for which the command will run.

Note: To include multiple tenants using CLI, you can use multiple --tenants=<...> options. If you're calling the command using Artisan::call(), --tenants has to be an array.

Migrate (tenant-aware)

The tenants:migrate command migrates databases of your tenants.

php artisan tenants:migrate --tenants=8075a580-1cb8-11e9-8822-49c5d8f8ff23

Note: By default, the migrations should be in database/migrations/tenant. If you wish to use a different path, you may use the --path option. You can also specify the default parameters for the command in the tenancy config

Rollback & seed (tenant-aware)

  • Rollback: tenants:rollback
  • Seed: tenants:seed

Note: You can configure the default parameters for tenants:seed (e.g. use a custom tenant seeder) in the tenancy config

Migrate fresh (tenant-aware)

This package also offers a simplified, tenant-aware version of migrate:fresh. It runs db:wipe and tenants:migrate on the tenant's database.

You may use it like this:

php artisan tenants:migrate-fresh --tenants=8075a580-1cb8-11e9-8822-49c5d8f8ff23

Run (tenant-aware)

You can use the tenants:run command to run your own commands for tenants.

If your command's signature were email:send {--queue} {--subject=} {body}, you would run this command like this:

php artisan tenants:run email:send --tenants=8075a580-1cb8-11e9-8822-49c5d8f8ff23 --option="queue=1" --option="subject=New Feature" --argument="body=We have launched a new feature. ..."

or using Artisan::call():

Artisan::call('tenants:run', [
    'commandname' => 'email:send', // String
    '--tenants' => ['8075a580-1cb8-11e9-8822-49c5d8f8ff23'] // Array
    '--option' => ['queue=1', 'subject=New Feature'] // Array
    '--argument' => ['body=We have launched a new feature.'] // Array
])

List

The tenants:list command lists all existing tenants.

php artisan tenants:list
Listing all tenants.
[Tenant] id: dbe0b330-1a6e-11e9-b4c3-354da4b4f339 @ localhost
[Tenant] id: 49670df0-1a87-11e9-b7ba-cf5353777957 @ dev.localhost

Selectively clearing tenant cache

You can delete specific tenants' cache by using the --tags option on cache:clear:

php artisan cache:clear --tags=tenantdbe0b330-1a6e-11e9-b4c3-354da4b4f339

The tag is derived from config('tenancy.cache.tag_base') . $id.
