How to Install CoreShop on Clear Linux Latest

CoreShop is an open-source and comprehensive e-commerce framework powered by Symfony PHP web framework. It is designed to help you create and manage your e-commerce website easily. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install CoreShop on Clear Linux latest version.

Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure you have these requirements:

• A system running Clear Linux latest.
• A root or a user account with sudo privileges.
• A web server installed on your system.
• PHP 7.2 or higher installed on your system.

Step 1: Install Required Packages

The first step is to install the required packages for CoreShop to work properly. You can install them by running the following command as root or user with sudo privileges:

sudo swupd bundle-add php runtime-basic lamp-dev

Step 2: Install Composer

Composer is a package manager for PHP that we need to install CoreShop. Use the following command to download and install Composer:

sudo php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
sudo php composer-setup.php --install-dir=/usr/bin --filename=composer

Step 3: Clone CoreShop

Now, we are going to clone the CoreShop source code from its GitHub repository. Run the following command to create a directory for CoreShop and clone its source code:

sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/coreshop
sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /var/www/html/coreshop
git clone https://github.com/coreshop/CoreShop.git /var/www/html/coreshop
cd /var/www/html/coreshop

Step 4: Install CoreShop Dependencies

Next, we are going to install the CoreShop dependencies using Composer. Run the following command to install them:

composer install

Step 5: Configure Web Server

We need to configure the web server to serve CoreShop. In this tutorial, we will use Apache web server to serve our website.

Create the Apache virtual host configuration file for CoreShop:

sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/coreshop.conf

Add the following content to the file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName your-domain.com
    ServerAlias www.your-domain.com

    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/coreshop/public

    <Directory /var/www/html/coreshop/public>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride All
        Order allow,deny
        allow from all
        Require all granted
    </Directory>

    ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/coreshop_error.log
    CustomLog /var/log/httpd/coreshop_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

Save and close the file.

Step 6: Start Apache web server

Now, start the Apache web server using the following command:

sudo systemctl start httpd
sudo systemctl enable httpd
