In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Drupal Commerce on Manjaro Linux. Drupal Commerce is an open-source e-commerce platform that is built on Drupal, a popular content management system. It provides a flexible and customizable e-commerce solution for businesses of all sizes.
Before we begin, make sure that your system meets the following prerequisites:
First, we need to download the latest version of Drupal Commerce from their official website. Open your web browser and navigate to the Drupal Commerce website. Click on the "Download" button and select the latest version.
Once the download is complete, navigate to the directory where the file was downloaded. Right-click on the file and select "Extract Here" from the context menu.
After extracting the Drupal Commerce file, move the extracted folder to the web root directory on your system. The default web root directory is /usr/share/nginx/html/ in Manjaro Linux.
sudo mv /path/to/drupal-commerce /usr/share/nginx/html/
Replace "/path/to/drupal-commerce" with the path to the extracted Drupal Commerce folder.
Next, create a new database for Drupal Commerce. Open a terminal window and enter the following command:
sudo mysql -u root -p
Enter your root MySQL password when prompted. Then, enter the following commands to create a new database and user:
CREATE DATABASE drupal_db;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON drupal_db.* TO 'drupal_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
EXIT;
Replace "drupal_db" with your preferred database name, "drupal_user" with your preferred username, and "password" with your preferred password.
Open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost/drupal-commerce/. You should see the Drupal Commerce installation wizard. Follow the on-screen instructions to install Drupal Commerce.
During the installation, you will be prompted to enter your database credentials, including the database name, username, and password. Enter the database details you created in the previous step.
After the installation is complete, you will be redirected to the Drupal Commerce administration dashboard. From here, you can configure your e-commerce store, add products, and manage orders.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed Drupal Commerce on Manjaro Linux!
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
