How to set up shopware 5 project using ddev Local system?

What is DDEV-Local?

– DDEV-Local is a Docker-based local development environment.

– It’s aimed at web developers, especially PHP developers.

– Developers run a website on their own local computer with almost no configuration of the computer.

– Developers can run multiple websites at the same time.

– Because Docker does all the heavy lifting, you don’t have to have even PHP or composer on your host computer.

– Has had first-class windows, macOS, and Linux support for ages.

DDEV-Local step-by-step

Step 1. Install Homebrew

Step 2. Install DDEV

Step 3. Install Docker

Step 4. Install Docker Compose

Step 5. Docker Post Installation Steps

Step 6. Set up a Shopware 5 via DDEV

Step 1. Install Homebrew

  • The recommended installation of DDEV is with Homebrew.
  • Homebrew is a package manager that simplifies the whole process. It is also known as Linuxbrew. (The Missing Package Manager for macOS (or Linux))
  • Run command in terminal

sh -c “$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Linuxbrew/install/master/install.sh)”

  • The system will finish with the installation of Homebrew. It will also prompt you about adding the script to your $PATH, in other words making it executable by typing the command brew in your terminal.
  • Type these terminal commands one by one:

test -d ~/.linuxbrew && eval $(~/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)

test -d /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew && eval $(/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)

test -r ~/.profile && echo “eval \$($(brew –prefix)/bin/brew shellenv)” >>~/.profile

echo “eval \$($(brew –prefix)/bin/brew shellenv)” >>~/.profile

NOTE : If your system is based on RedHat, CentOS, or Fedora, replace .profile with .bash_profile.

Step 2. Install DDEV

  • Once Homebrew is in the $PATH, you can use it by typing the command brew:

brew tap drud/ddev && brew install ddev

  • This will install DDEV and other required dependencies.
  • Once DDEV is installed, you need to run the installation command for mkcert, a tool that provides valid SSL certificates for your local development environment. A site domain with a valid SSL certificate starts with https:// instead of https://
  • Type: mkcert -install
  • Check the system logs and resolve all missing dependencies if the installation was not successful and try again.

Step 3. Install Docker

  • Remove any old Docker installation on your system if available.
  • Type: sudo apt-get remove docker docker-engine docker.io containerd runc

sudo apt-get remove docker docker-engine docker.io containerd runc

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl gnupg-agent software-properties-common

  • Type Y and hit Enter to proceed with the installation
  • The system will install all the needed packages. You can now add the Docker repository key to your system. :
    • curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add –
    • sudo apt-key fingerprint 0EBFCD88 (Check that both fingerprints are equal)
    • sudo add-apt-repository “deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable”
    • sudo apt-get update
  • Type: sudo apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io

Step 4. Install Docker Compose

  • Compose is a Docker tool which lets you define and execute multiple applications within the software containers.
  • Type:
    • sudo curl -L “https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.24.1/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)” -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
    • sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose (in order to make the script executable)
  • Check the Docker and Docker Compose installed versions with docker-compose –version and docker –version.
  • The system will install all the needed packages. You can now add the Docker repository key to your system. :
    • curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add –
    • sudo apt-key fingerprint 0EBFCD88 (Check that both fingerprints are equal)
    • sudo add-apt-repository “deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable”
    • sudo apt-get update
  • Type: sudo apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io

Step 5. Docker Post Installation Steps

  • Now it is time to check if Docker is working properly.
  • Type: sudo docker run hello-world
  • As you can notice, you can run Docker only with root privileges. To manage Docker as a non-root user, it is necessary to create a docker group and add users to it.
  • Type:
    • sudo groupadd docker
    • sudo usermod -a -G docker $USER
    • newgrp docker
    • docker run hello-world

Step 6. Set up a Shopware 5 via DDEV

  • You can set up a Shopware 5 many ways, but this shows you one recommended technique
  • Create directory like ‘mkdir -p workspace/’
  • Clone shopware 5 via git repo.
  • Fire
    • ddev start
    • composer install
    • cp .env.ddev .env
  • On first start up import database: ddev import-db –src=.ddev/dump.sql
  • After big database changes renew the db dump (ddev export-db –gzip=false > .ddev/dump.sql)
  • Have fun: https://shopware.ddev.site/
