Shopware Community Edition is a popular ecommerce solution that provides developers, designers, and store owners with a flexible and extensible platform to build unique and beautiful online stores. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps of installing Shopware Community Edition on EndeavourOS Latest, a lightweight Arch Linux-based operating system.
Before we start, make sure your system meets the following requirements:
First, go to the Shopware Community Edition website and download the latest version of the software:
wget https://www.shopware.com/de/Download/
Then, extract the downloaded archive to your web server's document root directory:
sudo tar -xvf shopware-x.x.x.zip -C /var/www/html/
Replace x.x.x with the version number you downloaded.
Note: If you don't have sudo installed, you can install it by running the following command:
pacman -S sudo
You need to create a virtual host configuration file for Shopware Community Edition. Create a new file called shopware.conf in the /etc/httpd/conf/extra/ directory:
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/extra/shopware.conf
Add the following content to the file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/shopware
<Directory /var/www/html/shopware>
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/shopware_error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/shopware_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Replace example.com with your domain name or IP address.
Next, enable the new virtual host configuration by running:
sudo a2ensite shopware.conf
Finally, restart the Apache service:
sudo systemctl restart httpd
Shopware Community Edition uses Composer to manage its dependencies. To install them, navigate to the Shopware installation directory:
cd /var/www/html/shopware
Then, run the following command:
composer install --no-dev
This will install all the required packages to run Shopware.
Shopware Community Edition also requires Node.js and Yarn to build its frontend assets. First, install the required packages:
sudo pacman -S nodejs yarn
Then, navigate to the Shopware installation directory and run the following commands:
cd /var/www/html/shopware
yarn install
yarn run build
This will install and build all the required frontend dependencies.
Now that all the dependencies are installed, you need to configure Shopware. Navigate to the Shopware installation directory and run the following command:
sudo ./bin/console system:install --basic-setup
This will start the installation wizard, which will guide you through the initial configuration of your Shopware store. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the setup.
Once the installation wizard is complete, you can access your new Shopware store by visiting the domain name or IP address you configured in Step 2.
