Laravel Aurora Connector 📮

This library creates a new database driver for Laravel dedicated to connect to Aurora. It gives us an opportunity to properly configure the READ COMMITTED isolation as well as load the database password from AWS Secrets.

Installation

composer require customergauge/aurora

Usage

In the database.php, we define a connection using the aurora driver

        'tenant' => [
            'driver' => 'aurora',
            'host' => env('DB_HOST'),
            'port' => env('DB_PORT),
            'database' => env('DB_DATABASE'),
            'username' => env('DB_USERNAME'),
            'charset' => 'utf8mb4',
            'collation' => 'utf8mb4_unicode_ci',
            'prefix' => '',
            'prefix_indexes' => true,
            'strict' => false,
            'engine' => null,
            'options' => [],
            'aurora' => [
                'secret' => env('AWS_SECRET_NAME'),
            ],
        ],

The new 'aurora' key will allow the confiugration for the AWS Secret manager.
