CoreShop is an e-commerce solution built on the Symfony framework. In this tutorial, we'll guide you through the installation of CoreShop on Void Linux.
Before we start, we need to make sure the following prerequisites are met:
First, we need to download CoreShop from their website. Run the following command in your terminal:
$ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
This command will install the Composer package manager.
Next, create a new directory for your CoreShop installation:
$ mkdir /var/www/myshop
Now, navigate to your new directory:
$ cd /var/www/myshop
And finally, download CoreShop using Composer:
$ php ../composer.phar create-project coreshop/core-shop .
This command will install all the required packages and dependencies for CoreShop.
Next, we need to configure the database for CoreShop. Start by creating a new database:
$ mysql -uroot -p
mysql> CREATE DATABASE coreshop;
mysql> exit;
Next, navigate to your CoreShop directory and copy the .env file:
$ cd /var/www/myshop
$ cp .env.dist .env
Edit the .env file and update the database settings as follows:
DATABASE_URL=mysql://root:password@localhost/coreshop
Replace password with the root password for your MySQL database.
To install CoreShop, run the following command:
$ php bin/console coreshop:install
This command will install CoreShop and configure the necessary settings.
To run CoreShop, start your web server and navigate to http://localhost/myshop. You should see the CoreShop storefront.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured CoreShop on Void 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!
