In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation of OXID eShop on NixOS Latest.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
First, we need to update the system to ensure that we have the latest packages.
sudo nix-channel --update
sudo nixos-rebuild switch
To install OXID eShop, we will use the nix-env command.
sudo nix-env -i oxid-esales-eshop
OXID eShop needs to be configured before it can be used.
First, we need to create a configuration file for the shop.
sudo mkdir /etc/oxid-esales
sudo touch /etc/oxid-esales/config.inc.php
sudo chmod 777 /etc/oxid-esales/config.inc.php
Next, we need to configure the database for the shop.
sudo oxid-dbconfig-generator /etc/oxid-esales/config.inc.php
Follow the prompts and enter the necessary information for the database.
Finally, we need to configure the shop URL.
sudo echo "\$this->sShopURL = 'http://example.com/oxid';" >> /etc/oxid-esales/config.inc.php
Replace http://example.com/oxid with the URL of your shop.
To start OXID eShop, we need to run the following command:

After starting the shop, navigate to the shop URL in your web browser to access OXID eShop.
