Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require jgamboa/nile-laravel-server

You can publish and run the migrations with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="nile-laravel-server-migrations"
php artisan migrate

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="nile-laravel-server-config"

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [
];

or use the command install from the package: will copy config(beta), copy migrations and ask to run it:

php artisan nile-server:install

Optionally, you can publish the views using

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="nile-laravel-server-views"

Usage

1. Tenant Context Middleware: NileContextMiddleware

This middleware reads the x-nile-tenant-id header and injects it into Laravel's application container using App::instance('tenant_id', $id).

Usage:

use JGamboa\NileLaravelServer\Http\Middleware\NileContextMiddleware;

Route::middleware([NileContextMiddleware::class])->group(function () {
    // Routes protected by tenant context
});

2. Execute Queries in Tenant Context: TenantDB::run()

Use the TenantDB service to run queries that depend on the current tenant ID.

Usage:

use JGamboa\NileLaravelServer\Services\TenantDB;

TenantDB::run(function ($db) {
    return $db->table('users')->get();
});

This internally sets the tenant ID using: set local nile.tenant_id = ?.

3. Multi-tenant Models: BelongsToTenant Trait

Apply the BelongsToTenant trait to models that need to be scoped to a tenant.

Usage:

use JGamboa\NileLaravelServer\Traits\BelongsToTenant;

class BranchOffice extends Model
{
    use BelongsToTenant;
}

This trait adds a global scope and automatically fills the tenant_id field during creation.

4. Tenant Model: Extend NileTenantModel

You must create a model named Tenant that extends NileTenantModel. This provides support for UUIDs and custom timestamps.

Usage:

use JGamboa\NileLaravelServer\Models\NileTenantModel;

class Tenant extends NileTenantModel
{
    protected $table = 'tenants';
}

The base model includes:

• Automatic UUIDs
• Soft deletes
• Custom timestamp fields (created, modified, deleted)

4. User Model: Extend NileUserModel

You must modify laravel base User Model to extends NileUserModel. This provides support for UUIDs and custom timestamps.

Usage:

use JGamboa\NileLaravelServer\Models\NileUserModel;

class User extends NileUserModel
{
    // aquí puedes extender comportamiento o relaciones
}

The base model includes:

• Automatic UUIDs
• Soft deletes
• Custom timestamp fields (created, modified, deleted)
• hasVerifiedEmail() and markEmailAsVerified() functions adapted for Nile's email_verified column
