laravel-refreshable-databases
=============================

[](#laravel-refreshable-databases)

A Laravel package that lets you declare **additional database connections** that should be wiped and re-migrated every time `php artisan migrate:fresh` runs.

---

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

PackageVersionPHP^8.1Laravel10, 11, or 12---

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require misakstvanu/laravel-refreshable-databases
```

The service provider is auto-discovered by Laravel — no manual registration is needed.

---

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Add a `refreshable` key to your `config/database.php`:

```
// config/database.php

return [

    // ... your existing connections ...

    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Refreshable Connections
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | List the names of database connections that should also be wiped and
    | re-migrated every time `php artisan migrate:fresh` is executed.
    |
    */
    'refreshable' => [
        'secondary',
        'reporting',
    ],

];
```

> **Note:** The package automatically merges a default `refreshable: []` into the `database` config, so you only need to add the key when you want to specify connections.

---

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Simply run the standard Artisan command:

```
php artisan migrate:fresh
```

In addition to refreshing the default (or `--database`-specified) connection, the command will also:

1. Wipe all tables for every connection listed in `database.refreshable`.
2. Run all migrations for each of those connections.

All options accepted by the built-in `migrate:fresh` command — `--seed`, `--seeder`, `--drop-views`, `--drop-types`, `--path`, `--realpath`, `--schema-path`, `--step`, `--force` — are forwarded to each refreshable connection automatically.

---

How It Works
------------

[](#how-it-works)

The package registers a custom `FreshCommand` (with the same `migrate:fresh`signature) that extends Laravel's built-in command. After the standard fresh- migration cycle completes, it iterates over `config('database.refreshable')` and runs `db:wipe` followed by `migrate` for each listed connection.

Because Laravel loads package service providers after the core providers, the package's command registration cleanly replaces the built-in `migrate:fresh`command with no extra configuration needed.
