Magento-Peachpie

This project mirrors Magento 1.9.4.1 and tries to make it compile via Peachpie (on GitHub) to .NET.
In the process of doing this, some fixes (in Magento and used libraries) called "core hacks" are necessary to satisfy the static compiler - so be warned!

ToDo

• some messages classified as warnings are rather serious, this should be fixed if possible
  • reduce warnings in general, optimal would be zero
  • some frequently occurring warnings are ignored right now (see NoWarn section in .msbuildproj-file)
• generate a release build
• fix constant Mage_Exception errors

Done

• compiled Magento into a .dll-file
• a minimal webserver exists utilizing Kestrel compiles into a .dll-file too
• webserver runs without startup problems

How to setup

• clone this project
• copy app.config.sample to app.config and enter your values
• create a new db and install the magento 1 sample data (extract the file and import the .sql - file) from https://github.com/peachpiecompiler/peachpie/issues
  • change core_cache_option to disable all caches
  • change core_config_data, enter web/secure/base_url and web/unsecure/base_url
  • you can use INSERT INTO core_config_data (scope,scope_id,path,value) VALUES ('default',0,'web/unsecure/base_url','http://localhost:5004/'), ('default',0,'web/secure/base_url','http://localhost:5004/');
• follow the instructions to get peachpie running: https://github.com/peachpiecompiler/peachpie#how-to-use-peachpie
• change to 'webserver' - dir and run dotnet clean; dotnet build to see if everything is at least working on a basic level
• if yes you can now set breakpoints to e.g. index.php and start debugging by pressing F5

State

• experimental (not even alpha)
• html output is generated, but the update scripts are failing
