Installation
To install the Aimeos shop application, you need composer 2.1+. On the CLI, execute this command for a complete installation including a working setup:
wget https://getcomposer.org/download/latest-stable/composer.phar -O composer
php composer create-project aimeos/aimeos myshop
You will be asked for the parameters of your database and mail server as well as an e-mail and password used for creating the administration account.
In a local environment, you can use the integrated PHP web server to test your new Aimeos installation. Simply execute the following command to start the web server:
cd myshop
php artisan serve
Note: In an hosting environment, the document root of your virtual host must point to
the /.../myshop/public/ directory and you have to change the APP_URL setting in your .env
file to your domain without port, e.g.:
APP_URL=http://myhostingdomain.com
Frontend
After the installation, you can test the Aimeos shop frontend by calling the URL of your VHost in your browser. If you use the integrated PHP web server, you should browse this URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000
Backend
The Aimeos administration interface will be available at /admin in your VHost. When using
the integrated PHP web server, call this URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin
Customize
Laravel and the Aimeos e-commerce package are extremely flexible and highly customizable. A lot of documentation for the Laravel framework and the Aimeos e-commerce framework exists. If you have questions about Aimeos, don't hesitate to ask in our Aimeos forum.
For more details about Aimeos Laravel integration, please have a look at its repository.
Multi-language
For shops which offers multiple languages, just add this line to your ./myshop/.env file:
SHOP_MULTILOCALE=true
Then, the language will be added to the routes automatically. You can set up the available languages in the "Locale > Locale" panel of the Aimeos admin backend.
Multi-vendor
To enable multi-vendor features, add this settings to the ./myshop/.env file:
SHOP_MULTISHOP=true
If you want to allow vendors to register themselves as sellers, set this option in the
./myshop/.env file too:
SHOP_REGISTRATION=true
By default, newly registered sellers have administrator privileges in the backend for
their own site. For a more limited access to the backend, you can change the permission
level to "editor" in the ./myshop/.env file:
SHOP_PERMISSION=editor
You can change the permissions associated to "admin" or "editor" by adding your own version
of the JQAdm resource configuration
to the "admin" section of your ./config/shop.php file.
