CoreShop is an ecommerce and CMS solutions that allows developers to build online stores using Symfony framework.
In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps of installing CoreShop on the latest version of POP! OS.
Let's begin by updating your system to ensure you have the latest packages installed.
Open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
CoreShop requires Apache web server and PHP to function. We can install both with the following commands:
sudo apt install apache2 libapache2-mod-php
sudo apt install php php-mysql php-curl php-xml php-mbstring php-zip
After installing Apache and PHP, you should start Apache with the following command:
sudo systemctl start apache2
CoreShop requires a MySQL database server. You can install MySQL with the following command:
sudo apt install mysql-server
During the installation process, you will be prompted to set a password for the MySQL root user. Make sure to keep this password secure.
After installing MySQL, you should start it with the following command:
sudo systemctl start mysql
You can verify that MySQL is running with the following command:
sudo systemctl status mysql
We will now download the latest version of CoreShop from their official website.
cd /var/www/html
sudo wget https://github.com/coreshop/CoreShop/releases/download/2.2.5/coreshop.zip
sudo unzip coreshop.zip
sudo mv coreshop/* .
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data .
sudo chmod -R 777 var/ public/ src/Resources/
We will now configure CoreShop to work with your system.
Copy the example config files to the appropriate files using the following commands:
cp app/config/parameters.yml.dist app/config/parameters.yml
Edit the app/config/parameters.yml file with your database credentials and other configuration options.
You can use the following command to edit it:
sudo nano app/config/parameters.yml
CoreShop installation includes populating the database schema and loading fixtures. You should run the following commands:
php bin/console doctrine:database:create
php bin/console doctrine:schema:update --force
php bin/console doctrine:fixtures:load
To complete the installation, you should navigate to your CoreShop installation URL in your web browser. You should see the CoreShop welcome page.
