Hi All,
Could you please help me getting a way to support multiple
databases with rails application. I found that with ruby application we
can connect only one database at a time by either specifying database
information in database.yml file or overrriding it in activerecord
subclasses.
My requirement is:
Suppose I have three databases: db1, db2, db3. All these three databases
have same database schema (structure). When a user logs in to the
application he will be asked to which database he wants to connect. And
the application will be connected to selected database accordingly.
I am able to connect to databases dynamically using activerecord
establish_connection method. But the problem is When user1 logs in and
opt to connect to db1, he finds everything working properly. Now if
user2 logs in and connects to database db2, user2 will find everything
fine but now user1 also finds himself connected to db2 instead of db1.
i.e. rails application connects to only one database at a time.
Is there a way to connect to multiple databases based on different user
sessions.
Please suggest me method to do so.
Thanks
Nitin
