How to use multiple databases in Laravel
(7 answers)
Closed last month.
I'm developing a project where I need to use multiple databases in Laravel. The first database works like a charm (MySQL) but I can't get the framework to recognize the SQLite DB. The error that shows up is this:
Illuminate \ Database \ QueryException
Database (sqlite) does not exist. (SQL: PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON;)
Here is my .env
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=sitio1
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=
DB_CONNECTION_SECOND=sqlite
DB_DATABASE_SECOND=/Users/imac/CleverOctopusBDD/database/Sitio2.sqlite
DB_USERNAME_SECOND=root
DB_PASSWORD_SECOND=
and here is my database.php
'default' => env('DB_CONNECTION', 'mysql'),
'connections' => [
'sqlite' => [
'driver' => 'sqlite',
'url' => env('DATABASE_URL'),
'database' => env('DB_CONNECTION_SECOND', database_path('Sitio2.sqlite')),
'prefix' => '',
'foreign_key_constraints' => env('DB_FOREIGN_KEYS', true),
],
'mysql' => [
'driver' => 'mysql',
'url' => env('DATABASE_URL'),
'host' => env('DB_HOST', '127.0.0.1'),
'port' => env('DB_PORT', '3306'),
'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', 'sitiocentral'),
'username' => env('DB_USERNAME', 'root'),
'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD', ''),
]) : [],
],
And the location of my .sqlite file is this -> database -> Sitio2.sqlite
I've doing some research and I don't really know what am I doing wrong. If you are wondering, this is how one of my sqlite db model looks...
class Client2 extends Model
{
protected $connection = 'sqlite';
protected $fillable = [
'name', 'email', 'phone', 'address'
];
protected $table = 'Client2';
protected $primaryKey = 'idClient';
public $timestamps = false;
}
I hope you can help me out here because I have found information about multiple MySQL connections but not with SQLite, I appreciate any tips given.
EDIT: I just needed to pass the full path to 'database' => env('DB_DATABASE_SECOND', database_path('Sitio2.sqlite')),

Answer 1

does it work if you put the full path to your sqlite file in the database config like this?
'sqlite' => [
'driver' => 'sqlite',
'url' => env('DATABASE_URL'),
'database' => '/Users/imac/CleverOctopusBDD/database/Sitio2.sqlite',
'prefix' => '',
'foreign_key_constraints' => env('DB_FOREIGN_KEYS', true),
],
