⚠️ Deprecation notice ⚠️

Spree supports multi-store scenarios out of the box. The apartment gem, which this gem depends on is not maintained anymore, hence we won't maintain and support this gem anymore.

Spree Shared

Multiple stores using a single Spree application instance.

Uses request subdomain to swap database, Rails cache (preferences), image paths.

Installation

1. Add to your Gemfile:

   gem 'spree_shared', github: 'spree-contrib/spree_shared', branch: 'master'
   

   Make sure your config/database.yml has valid db connection.

2. Create config/initializers/apartment.rbwith the following command:

   bundle exec rails generate apartment:install
   

3. Search for following line inside config/initializers/apartment.rb:

     config.tenant_names = lambda { ToDo_Tenant_Or_User_Model.pluck :database }
   

   And change it to include two sample subdomains:

     config.tenant_names = %w(store1 store2)
   

4. Bootstrap sample stores:

   bundle exec rake spree_shared:bootstrap['store1']
   bundle exec rake spree_shared:bootstrap['store2']
   

5. Setup local subdomains for sample stores, as spree_shared uses by default subdomain routing you need to confirm some local domains such as:

   store1.spree.dev store2.spree.dev

   This can be done using Pow or editing your local /etc/hosts file.

6. Set namespace for cache engine in development.rb and/or production.rb

   config.cache_store = :memory_store, { namespace: -> { Apartment::Tenant.current } }
   

Setting Store Preferences

If you'd like to set preferences for every store you can do so in your config/initializers/spree.rb initializer by iterating over each store, and then setting it's preference. Since this is multi-tenant with each store having their own database the usual Spree.config block can't be used as it only sets the preference for a single database.

Here is an example:

require 'spree_shared/tenant_decorator'

Apartment::Tenant.each do |tenant_name| # also each_with_default available
  Spree::Config.auto_capture = true
rescue
  puts "  Failed to set up config for store '#{tenant_name}'"
end
