  • Laravel Version: 5.4.*
  • Voyager Version: ^0.11.14

I do have multiple databases which works quite well within a Laravel App.

How can I configure Voyager to use them?

Is it possible to switch between connections?

Kind Regards

Steps To Reproduce:

  • new laravel project and installation of voyager with all required steps

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate Voyager's configuration files to see if it supports multiple database connections. Look for any existing documentation or issue discussions on multi database setups. Consider modifying the Voyager config to specify a connection name, and ensure that all Voyager models use that connection. Test with a separate database connection defined in config/database.php.
