Multi-tenancy in Ecto and Phoenix

Creating a new tentant

A new tenant requires a namespace, which is a schema in Postgres, and a prefix in Ecto:

$ psql -U postgres database_x
> create schema aktagon;

Querying data

import Ecto.Query
email = "[email protected]"
q = from(m in User, where: m.email == ^email)
Repo.all(%{q | prefix: "aktagon"})

Documentation: https://hexdocs.pm/ecto/Ecto.Query.html#module-query-prefix

Inserting data

Repo.insert(
  Ecto.put_meta(
   %User{ email: "[email protected]" },
   prefix: "aktagon"
  )
)

Migrations

$ mix ecto.migrate --prefix "aktagon"

Notes

  • (KeyError) key :__meta__ not found

I got this error when passing a changeset to Ecto.put_meta instead of a User struct.
