Windows Install

1. run cygwin setup and add mysql

2. create a file at ~/.my.cnf containing:

    [client] 
    user=root 
    host=127.0.0.1 
    password= 
   

3. edit /etc/opencart-install.conf

4. Find your cygwin folder (C:/cygwin , C:/cygwin64, …)

5. create folder <cygwin_folder>/home/username/Projects/opencart/ if doesn’t exist alternatively create folder <cygwin_folder>/home/username/Projects/opencart/ if doesn’t exist

6. copy paste opencart versions u work with in there so you end up with

    <cygwin_folder>/home/username/Projects/opencart/opencart/upload/…
             and optionally
    <cygwin_folder>/usr/local/src/opencart/opencart/upload/…
   

7. Copy the working templates into a folder structure like below in this case stable is the branch this will change with release ex u could target 1.5.5.1 by adding a 1.5.5.1 dir under the theme name

    <cygwin_folder>/home/username/Projects/opencart/theme/Journal/stable/upload….
            and optionally
    <cygwin_folder>/usr/local/src/opencart/theme/Journal/stable/upload….
   

8. Copy paste base folder of working extensions

    <cygwin_folder>/home/username/Projects/opencart/extension/extension-name/stable/upload….
            and optionally
    <cygwin_folder>/usr/local/src/opencart/extension/extension-name/stable/upload….
   

9. Copy install_opencart into <cygwin_folder>/usr/local/bin

10. Run:

         ln -s /usr/local/bin/install_opencart.sh /usr/local/bin/opencart-install
    

Usage

-h sets the hostname of the store, ie cheetasoft.gr

1. navigate to the folder you wish to install opencart

2. run:

        opencart-install -n <project_name> -u <user_name> -d <database_name> -m <domain_url> -h <host_url> -t <theme1,theme2,theme3> -e <extension1,extension2,extension3> -v <version> -o <overwrite database>
   

versions: stable = fetch the latest stable branch via wget | origin = clone the latest from your git repo | upstream = clone the main opencart git repo

1.5.5.1 = fetch a local branch located in ~./Projects/opencart/opencart-VERSION

you can change the location of opencart base in /etc/opencart-install.conf

extensions and modules: these files follow a common naming convention see source for more info

3. Base opencart should be installed and accessible through <domain_url> & <domain_url>/admin with admin:admin123

4. Database <user_name>_<database_name> should have been created in mysql server specified inside install_opencart.sh

5. Sync Online-Production (git & git-ftp)

---

Connect to production with ssh install opencart online setup git-ftp

	git config git-ftp.production.url <production_path>
	git config git-ftp.production.user <user>
	git config git-ftp.production.password <password>
	or
	git config git-ftp.production.key <path to key>

eg for cheetasoft (change user & project_name)  

	git config git-ftp.production.url sftp://cheetasoft.gr/home/<user>/public_html/<project_name>
	git config git-ftp.production.user panospcm
	git config git-ftp.production.password <password>
	git config git-ftp.production.key ~/.ssh/id_rsa

create file .git-ftp.log and write inside the commit hash from local folder (enter following command to add it to clipboard)

	git log --pretty=oneline | awk 'NR==1{print $1}' | clip

if ssh keys are installed in local machine, you can use scp to upload .git-ftp.log with one command (change user & project_name):

	git log --pretty=oneline | awk 'NR==1{print $1}' >> .git-ftp.log && scp .git-ftp.log root@cheetasoft.gr:/home/<user>/public_html/<project_name> && rm .git-ftp.log
