PWA Metapackage for Magento Open Source Extensions

Welcome to PWA metapackage for Magento Open Source extensions. As a metapackage for Magento Open Source, this repo enables PWA extension developers to add any additional Magento Open Source features they need to support their PWA modules.

Current Modules

Development setup

To setup and develop your PWA extension modules locally, use the following instructions:

Installation as a git-based composer package

  1. Clone and/or navigate to your magento2 git repository and check out the latest develop branch, e.g. 2.4-develop. You may also check out and use any 2.4 release tags.

    git clone [email protected]:magento/magento2.git
    cd magento2
  2. Create an ext directory within the root of your magento2 project:

    mkdir ext
  3. Clone the magento2-pwa repository into your vendor directory name:

    git clone [email protected]:magento-commerce/magento2-pwa.git ext/magento/magento2-pwa
  4. Update the magento2/composer.json settings to create a better development workflow for your extension modules:

    • Update the minimum-stability for packages to dev. This allows for the installation of development modules:

      composer config minimum-stability dev
    • To work with stable packages, ensure that the prefer-stable property is true. This property should already be included in the composer.json file, right above the minimum-stability setting.

    • Configure composer to find new extension modules. The following command configures composer to treat any extension code inside the ext directory as a package and creates a symlink to the vendor directory:

      composer config repositories.ext path "./ext/*/*/*"
  5. Install the pwa metapackage:

    composer require magento/pwa

At this point, you should see symlinks for all the pwa modules inside the vendor directory. These symlinks allow you to:

  • Run a Magento installation with additional modules.
  • Develop locally using the standard git workflow.

You may need to ensure that there are no Magento_PWA* modules listed as enabled when you run bin/magento module:status. If there are, follow the docs on how to enable modules.

Setting up the Git workflow

To improve the developer experience even further, you can add these configurations as well:

  1. Exclude all the ext directories in the project's .git configuration:

    echo ext >> ./.git/info/exclude
  2. Skip your project's root directory composer.\* files to avoid committing them by mistake:

    git update-index --skip-worktree composer.json
    git update-index --skip-worktree composer.lock

    NOTE: You can reverse this operation anytime as needed:

    git update-index --no-skip-worktree composer.json
    git update-index --no-skip-worktree composer.lock

Cloud deployment extension installation

  1. Add https://repo.magento.com as a composer repository by adding the following to your cloud instances composer.json file.

    "repositories": {
        "repo": {
            "type": "composer",
            "url": "https://repo.magento.com"
        }
    },
  2. Require in magento/magento2-pwa extension by adding the following to your cloud instances composer.json file.

    "require": {
        "magento/magento2-pwa": "0.0.1"
    },
  3. Ensure your auth.json file has valid credential for repo.magento.com.

  4. Run composer update to update your composer.lock file.

  5. Push the changes and deploy your cloud instance.
