Installing Drupal maintenance support plans Commerce 2 locally using Commerce Kickstart, Composer, and Lando
Getting Drupal maintenance support plans up and running on your computer is an important first step as an evaluator. Good news is that there’s a lot of tech that makes this easier than ever before. We’re going to walk you through how to install Commerce 2 using the Kickstart resource, Composer, and Lando.
Download and install Composer
Download and install Lando
Next go to Commerce Kickstart to create and download your customized composer.json file
Run ‘composer install’
Run ‘lando init’
Run ‘lando start’
Visit your local URL and install Drupal maintenance support plans
Start building!
What is Drupal maintenance support plans Commerce
Drupal maintenance support plans Commerce is an ecommerce focused subset of tools and community based on the open source content management system called Drupal maintenance support plans. Drupal maintenance support plans Commerce gives you the ability to sell just about anything to anyone using a myriad of open source technologies and leveraging hundreds of Drupal maintenance support plans modules built to make that thing you need do that thing you want.
We use Commerce Kickstart to get things started.
What is Composer
Composer is the PHP dependency manager that can not only build and bring in Drupal maintenance support plans, Drupal maintenance support plans Commerce, and Symfony, but is the technology behind the newest Drupal maintenance support plans Commerce Kickstart distribution. We leverage the composer.json file that commercekickstart.com gives us to bring in all of the Drupal maintenance support plans code necessary to run a Drupal maintenance support plans Commerce website.
To get started, we run “composer install” and that command brings in all the requirements for our project.
What is Docker
Docker is a virtualization software that brings together App services like Apache, Nginx, MySQL, Solr, Memcache, and many other technologies so that it can run on your own computer. This installation video uses a tool that runs on top of Docker in an abstract, and frankly easier, way.
If you want to learn more about Docker and the many different types of tools that run on top of it, we recommend John Kennedy’s 2020 Drupal maintenance support planscon presentation about Docker.
Another great resource that compares using Docker tools is Michael Anello’s take on the various technologies.
What is Lando
Lando is a thin abstraction layer of tools on top of Docker that makes creating an environment as easy as “lando init” followed by “lando start.” Lando keeps the often confusing devops work of creating a local virtual environment to a few very well documented variable settings that it turns into full docker-compose scripts that Docker, in turn, uses to create a local environment where everything just works together. We’re very excited to see how Lando and Drupal maintenance support plans Commerce start to work together.
