This provides lots of power for automated build and deployment processes. Also, bin/magento is a CLI tool that can provide a wealth of functionality, like: completely installing/uninstalling Magento, managing the cache and indexes, setting store configuration values, and more. You can install and manage modules with Composer. Magento 2 is pushing heavily toward command-line management tools of all shapes and sizes. Each layout handle gets its own file, but the concepts are pretty much the same.
There are a variety of other config types, and you can add your own too, if needed.Īlong the same lines, layout XML files are also strictly defined now and the way they’re written and combined has changed a lot since Magento 1. Settings are defined in etc/adminhtml/system.xml, and their defaults (and nothing else) are in etc/config.xml. Everything related to a module is now contained within that module’s directory: app/code/ /events.xml).
Code pools (app/code/core, community, local) are also no more. If you know Magento 1, you know modules were spread all over the place: code here, templates there, and JS and other resources in any of several places. I’ll walk you through some of what’s new: 1. But, if you already know Magento 1, there are a lot of similarities. It uses new tech all over in order to become the best platform it can be for the next ten years. There’s no avoiding it: Magento 2 will be intimidating at first look, if not downright scary. I’ve been following Magento 2 for a while and I’d like to share some of what you can expect as a developer going through the transition. I don’t have all of the answers, but the year is 2017, the flying cars are conspicuously missing, and Magento 2 is the future. If you haven’t heard the news, the Magento 2 is here, and Magento 1 will, in time, be on the way out.
