Magento 2 Builder tool

Tool to automatically build Magento2 projects and sync data from remote servers.

Installation

Demo

Introduction

magento2-builder-tool is a tool to setup local environments for your Magento2 projects by executing one command. No Docker, no Vagrant needed but it is also compatible inside those virtualised setups. Database, Apache/Nginx configuration and everything else are created automatically for each project. You can even use sync mode to get server data copied locally.

Do you know Laravel Valet? That is quite the same but for Magento2.

This tool is also meant for CI environments to automate the step of creating the build. You can use it to get your project generated before executing the tests.

What this tool does for you:

1. Create Magento Database
2. Create Integration Test Database
3. Magento Install
4. Sync Data From Server
5. Update core_core_data for your environment
6. setup:upgrade
7. clean cache
8. Setup Apache/Nginx configuration

Only manual step is to edit your /etc/hosts

DnsMasq on MAC

On OS X you can even skip the manual step of editing the etc/hosts by using dnsmasq. You can configure it to automatically load all *.dev or *.lo urls (*.local does not work).

• Never Touch Your Local /etc/hosts File in OS X Again

NOTE: When adding a new dnsmasq, you need to reload the dnsmasq daemon:

sudo launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/homebrew.mxcl.dnsmasq.plist
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/homebrew.mxcl.dnsmasq.plist

Setup

Config Folder

cp -r <vendor_path>/staempfli/magento2-builder-tool/config.sample/ config

• Set the project custom core_config_data on config/mg2-builder/magento/config.yaml
• Set the project servers settings on config.sample/mg2-builder/server/config.yaml

NOTE: You only need to replace parameters between <> with your corresponding values. All other placehoders like ${} or {{}} will be automatically replaced during the tool execution

Create logs folder

mkdir logs
vim logs/.gitignore
# Ignore everything in this directory
*
# Except this file
!.gitignore

Custom Properties

You can customise all properties according to your needs:

• Properties added in config/mg2-builder/project.properties have the highest priority and will overwrite default ones
• Check all properties that can be customised here:
  • build/config/default.properties

Usage

• List available targets:

  • bin/mg2-builder -l

• Project install:

  • bin/mg2-builder install

• Sync data from server:

  • bin/mg2-builder sync

TIPS

Local settings

If you do not want to input over and over again the properties required, you can setup your default environment parameters as follows:

1. Create folder _conf at one level higher than your project root.

2. Add a new file environment.properties inside that folder.

3. Inside this file you can specify your environment properties as follows:

project.environment=<your_environment_type> (usually Local)
database.admin.username=<your_database_admin_user>
environment.server.type=<your_server_type> (apache, nginx or none)
environment.vhosts.dir=<your_preferred_vhost.d_path>

SSH without password

To skip entering the ssh password every time, you can use ssh-copy-id to automatically set the public-private keys on the server. Simply execute:

ssh-copy-id user@server-domain

Custom scripts

If you need additional scripts to build your projects, you can add them here:

• config/mg2-builder/xmlscripts/custom.xml

You can also define targets that will be automatically executed during the build process. This tool contains customHooks that can be listened to dispatch other targets. You can set inside config/mg2-builder/project.properties the targets to be executed by these hooks:

vim config/mg2-builder/xmlscripts/custom.xml
before-magento-install = <your-custom-target>
after-sync = <your-custom-target>
after-tests-setup-integration = <your-custom-target>
after-util-db-clean = <your-custom-target>

Disclaimer

In order to use sync functionalities, n98-magenrun2 must be available on the remote server. The easiest way is to add it as part as your project dependencies:

composer require "n98/magerun2":"^1.4"

If you install n98-magerun2 in your server in another way, be sure to configure the parameter sync.bin.n98-magerun2 accordingly:

• build/config/default.properties#L26

Troubleshooting

MySQL server has gone away

• Problem: On Mac computers, MySQL crashes sometime when creating, importing or updating the Magento database.

• Solution: Kill MySQL process, start MySQL and try again:

  1. killall -9 mysqld
  2. mysql.server start or mysql.server restart
  3. Try again: mg2-builder install

Prerequisites

• PHP >= 7.0.*
• Mysql >= 5.7.*
