Shopware 6 Additional Dev Tools

A small stack of dev tools to make your life as a starting Shopware 6 developer a little easier

Assumptions

This plugin is build upon a few assumptions:

  • You have Shopware 6 already installed manually
  • shopware/platform is installed by composer

Features

  • Enable and Disable twig caching
  • Fix hot proxy
  • Create Shorthand for ./psh.phar
  • Works on three types of Shopware installation:
    • Composer platform installation: ./vendor/shopware/platform
    • Composer production template installation: ./vendor/shopware/core etc.
    • Installed following the Shopware installation guidelines by using git

Installation

Composer / packagist

composer require mmeester/shopware6-dev-tools --dev

That's it, follow the next steps in the activate plugin section.

Manual

  • Download the zipfile of this repo
  • Unzip the zip
  • Rename the folder to DevTools or whatevever your flavor is
  • Move the folder in your Shopware 6 Custom plugin directory, ex: custom/plugins

Activate plugin

In your CLI run the following inside the root of your Shopware project:

  • Detect new plugins: bin/console plugin:refresh 👉 Look for the new plugin
  • Install & activate the plugin: bin/console plugin:install --activate DevTools

Commands

Enable or disable Twig Caching

Before you can start developing you need to disable twig caching so development goes faster (and your installation a little slower), to disable the cache run:

bin/console dev:twig-cache disable

to enable the cache:

bin/console dev:twig-cache enable

Add shorthand command to CLI

Typing ./psh.phar are way too much characters when typing it more than twice a day 😊, so make your life a little easier and add a shorthand to your cli, run the following command once and follow the instructions in your cli:

bin/console dev:create-alias

Now you are able to run all your known Shopware Commands like this:

sw cache
sw update

sw storefront:build
sw storefront:dev
sw storefront:hot-proxy

...

NOTE: You only need to run this command once per machine, each time you run this command an additional alias will be written to your profile.

Hot proxy fix

This is a fix for Shopware 6 users that aren't able or don't want to use Docker to run their installation locally.

This solves the problem in Valet+ that it isn't accepting port :80 forwarding with hot proxy!

  • Run the new command to fix the hot-proxy: bin/console dev:hot-proxy-fix
  • Try the hot-proxy again by running the standard Shopware command: ./psh.phar storefront:hot-proxy
