Installation¶

The Sylius main application can serve as end-user app, as well as a foundation for your custom e-commerce application.

This article assumes you’re familiar with Composer, a dependency manager for PHP. It also assumes you have Composer installed globally.

Примечание

If you downloaded the Composer phar archive, you should use php composer.phar where this guide uses composer.

It can be installed using two different approaches, depending on your use case.

Install to Contribute¶

To install Sylius main application from our main repository and contribute, run the following command:

$ composer create-project -s dev sylius/sylius

This will create a new sylius project in sylius. When all the dependencies are installed, you’ll be asked to fill the parameters.yml file via interactive script. Please follow the steps. After everything is in place, run the following commands:

# Move to the newly created directory
$ cd sylius
$ php app/console sylius:install

This package contains our main Sylius development repository, with all the components and bundles in the src/ folder.

For the contributing process questions, please refer to the [Contributing Guide].

Bootstrap A New Sylius Project¶

To create a new project using Sylius Standard Edition, run this command:

$ composer create-project -s dev sylius/sylius-standard acme

This will create a new Symfony project in acme directory. When all the dependencies are installed, you’ll be asked to fill the parameters.yml file via interactive script. Please follow the steps. After everything is in place, run the following commands:

# Move to the newly created directory
$ cd acme
$ php app/console sylius:install

This package has the whole sylius/sylius package in vendors, so you can easily updated it and focus on your custom development.
