Installation

Note: Laravel 11 has a different folder structure than Laravel 10. An updated installation guide is coming soon. For now you can see this discussion.

Laravel 6.0 or higher is needed.

Require the package using composer:

composer require stancl/tenancy

Then run the following command:

php artisan tenancy:install

It will create:

• migrations
• a config file (config/tenancy.php),
• a routes file (routes/tenant.php),
• and a service provider file app/Providers/TenancyServiceProvider.php

Then add the service provider to your config/app.php file:

/*
 * Application Service Providers...
 */
App\Providers\AppServiceProvider::class,
App\Providers\AuthServiceProvider::class,
// App\Providers\BroadcastServiceProvider::class,
App\Providers\EventServiceProvider::class,
App\Providers\RouteServiceProvider::class,
App\Providers\TenancyServiceProvider::class, // <-- here

And finally, if you want to use a different central database than the one defined by DB_CONNECTION in the file .env, name your central connection (in config/database.php) central — or however else you want, but make sure it's the same name as the tenancy.central_connection config.
