Shopware CLI Tools

The shopware CLI tools are your console helpers for all kind of Shopware tasks. They will allow you to:

  • setup Shopware from VCS
  • setup Shopware from a release tag
  • create Shopware plugins
  • define a bunch of plugin repositories you use
  • install plugins from the repositories and activate them in shopware
  • zip plugins in the way the Shopware store or the Shopware plugin manager expect it to be

The shopware CLI tools come with a slim extension interface, so you can extend it for your needs.
This is an early development preview – so don’t expect it to be stable. Please wait for a 1.0.0 stable release before using this tools for production deployments
Pull requests are very welcome as well as ideas for possible extensions.

Support
