Eox-tenant is a multi-tenancy Django app for `edx-platform`_. It is built as an `openedx plugin`_ so even as a Django app it will autoinstall in the larger edx-platform core code once installed in the same Python environment.

The code is written and maintained by `eduNEXT`_ and it is what we use to support our own multi-tenant services. It was initially created as an extension of the `microsites` and `site_configurations` features of the Open edX platform, but it has grown to completely replace them in order to support more robust multi tenancy model.

Caveats
-------

- SSO that uses the LMS while authenticating does so with server-to-server communication. Therefore, when the `AvailableScreenMiddleware` gets the current domain, it finds that `lms:8000` as in `SOCIAL_AUTH_EDX_OAUTH2_URL_ROOT` which does not exist, then raises 404 exception. In order to avoid this error, set in your LMS settings file:
