SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the complexities of building and maintaining multi-tenant Ruby on Rails applications, ensuring data isolation and efficient resource management across different tenants.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Path-Based Tenancy: Implements middleware to extract tenant information from URL paths, simplifying local development and avoiding DNS/SSL complexities.
  • Context Preservation: Utilizes ActiveSupport::CurrentAttributes to manage tenant context across requests and background jobs.
  • Background Job Integration: Ensures tenant context is automatically preserved and restored in ActiveJob.
  • Session Scoping: Manages session cookies with path scoping to allow simultaneous logins to multiple tenants.
  • Test Utilities: Provides setup for testing path-based tenancy and middleware in isolation.

Quick Start

Implement path-based tenancy by inserting the AccountSlug::Extractor middleware into your Rails application's Rack stack.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I implement path-based multi-tenancy in a Rails application?▼

Path-based multi-tenancy in Rails is implemented by inserting a middleware extractor into your Rack stack to capture tenant information from URL paths, simplifying local development without DNS complexities. This isolates tenant data efficiently.

How does ActiveSupport::CurrentAttributes manage tenant context across background jobs?▼

ActiveSupport::CurrentAttributes manages tenant context by preserving and automatically restoring the tenant state during ActiveJob execution. This ensures background jobs process with the correct multi-tenancy isolation.

Can I scope session cookies to allow simultaneous logins to multiple tenants in Rails?▼

Yes, you can scope session cookies in Rails using path scoping to allow simultaneous logins to multiple tenants. This manages authentication securely across different tenant paths within the same application.

What is the best way to test path-based tenancy middleware in isolation?▼

The best way to test path-based tenancy middleware in isolation is using provided testing utilities that verify middleware extraction independently. This ensures secure tenant context handling without full application integration.

Why choose path-based URL routing over subdomain routing for Rails multi-tenancy?▼

Choose path-based URL routing for Rails multi-tenancy to avoid DNS and SSL configuration complexities. Extracting tenant details from URL paths via middleware simplifies local development and routing setup.
