## At a glance

- **Vendor**: mageme (https://packagento.com/mageme.md)
- **Latest version**: 2.0.1 — released 2026-06-14
- **Pricing**: Free
- **Package type**: Magento 2 module
- **Status**: active, accepting new buyers

## Installation

Packagento is licence-gated, so even free packages need a licence on a project before Composer can resolve them.

1. **Sign in or create an account** at https://packagento.com/customer/account/.

2. **Add the package to your account.** Open https://packagento.com/mageme/module-core and complete the free checkout. A licence is minted automatically.

3. **Create or pick a project, then activate the licence on it.**
   - Projects represent the Magento installs you deploy to. Manage them at https://packagento.com/projects/.
   - Activate the new licence on the project you'll deploy this package to. Activation is what generates the Composer credentials scoped to that project.

4. **Add the project credentials to your Magento codebase.**

   Grab the project's public + private key from https://packagento.com/projects/ (open the project, then its Credentials tab), and add them to `auth.json`:

   ```json
   {
     "http-basic": {
       "packagento.com": {
         "username": "ppk_live_...",
         "password": "psk_live_..."
       }
     }
   }
   ```

   Add the Packagento Composer repository to `composer.json`:

   ```json
   {
     "repositories": [
       { "type": "composer", "url": "https://packagento.com" }
     ]
   }
   ```

5. **Install and apply.**

   ```bash
   composer require mageme/module-core:*
   bin/magento setup:upgrade
   bin/magento setup:di:compile
   bin/magento cache:flush
   ```

Foundation module for all [MageMe extensions](https://mageme.com) for Magento 2. Provides the shared infrastructure used across the MageMe product family: license activation, the admin module ecosystem panel, news feed integration, and shared utility libraries.

`mageme/module-core` is normally installed automatically as a dependency when you add any other MageMe extension. You rarely need to install it on its own.

### What it provides

- **License management** — activate, deactivate, and verify MageMe extension licenses against `license.mageme.com` from each module's admin configuration section. Status updates live on page load without blocking the admin UI.
- **Module ecosystem panel** — admin block injected into every MageMe module's configuration page. Shows the product family overview, installed add-ons, available updates, license status, and quick links to Renew, Get Pro, or Buy.
- **News feed** — surfaces MageMe announcements in the Magento admin notifications inbox through Magento's standard `AdminNotification` infrastructure.
- **Shared utilities** — locale-aware date and time formatting, client IP detection through proxies, static asset content inlining, area detection helpers, and a self-sizing admin multiselect form field.
- **Bundled JS libraries** — SweetAlert2 and Tingle modal, shared by other MageMe modules' storefront UI to avoid duplication.

### Requirements

- Magento 2.4.x (Open Source or Commerce)
- PHP 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4, or 8.5
- PHP `curl`, `intl`, and `json` extensions

### Installation

In most cases `mageme/module-core` is pulled in automatically as a dependency of another MageMe extension. To install it standalone:

```
composer require mageme/module-core
bin/magento setup:upgrade
bin/magento cache:flush
```

## Quality

Latest release (2.0.1) fails the Packagento QA pipeline. Verdicts below are per-cell (Magento line × PHP version) for the matrixed tools, and run-once for the static / security tiers.


### Compatibility

Each Magento line is installed on its supported PHP versions, then the module is built (DI compile + static-content deploy). Cells show passed / failed / untested; staircase gaps render as `–`.

| Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.7 | Pass | Pass | – | – |
| 2.4.8 | – | Pass | Pass | – |
| 2.4.9 | – | – | Pass | Pass |


### Code Quality

Advisory checks against the module's source. Never affect the Compatibility verdict — a phpcs finding can't make a module incompatible.

#### Static Analysis

Coding standards (phpcs), mess detection (phpmd), copy-pasted code (cpd), PHP cross-version compatibility, composer.json validity. Each runs once for the whole module.

| Tool | Status | Findings | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|
| PHPCS | Warning | 155 | 155 warnings (ruleset: Magento2) — 17 auto-fixable with phpcbf |
| PHPMD | Warning | 18 | 18 rule violations (MissingImport:4, CyclomaticComplexity:4, NPathComplexity:4, UnusedFormalParameter:3, ExcessiveParameterList:2) |
| Cpd | Warning | 1 | 1 duplicated chunk spanning 55 total lines (min-lines=5, min-tokens=70) |
| Composer validate | Info | 7 | valid; 7 advisory notes (composer validate --strict) |

#### PHPStan

Type-checks the module against a real Magento install. Re-runs per Magento + PHP version because resolvable symbols differ between releases.

| Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.7 | 20 | 20 | – | – |
| 2.4.8 | – | 20 | 20 | – |
| 2.4.9 | – | – | 18 | 18 |


### Tests

Unit and integration suites run per Magento + PHP cell. Test failures speak to the module's behaviour, not its compatibility with a line, so they're reported here separately.

#### Unit Tests

| Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.7 | N/A | N/A | – | – |
| 2.4.8 | – | N/A | N/A | – |
| 2.4.9 | – | – | N/A | N/A |

#### Integration Tests

| Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.7 | N/A | N/A | – | – |
| 2.4.8 | – | N/A | N/A | – |
| 2.4.9 | – | – | N/A | N/A |


### Security

Dependency-advisory audit (composer audit) plus a source malware scan. A malware detection fails the version outright.

| Tool | Status | Findings | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|
| Composer audit | Pass | 0 |  |
| Malware scan | Pass | 0 |  |

## Licence and pricing

Free. A licence is still minted on checkout and bound to your project for Composer access — no payment step.

Refundable within 14 days of first purchase via https://packagento.com/account/refunds/.

## Install via Claude Code or any MCP client

The Packagento MCP server can run the licence + project + Composer steps above in one tool call:

```
purchase_and_install_packages(
  composer_names=["mageme/module-core"],
  project_id="proj_xxx"
)
```

This handles cart, checkout, licence minting, project activation, and writes auth.json credentials. Connect a client with `claude mcp add packagento https://mcp.packagento.com`. Full setup at https://packagento.com/docs/mcp-setup.
