Smartstore 5 is a port of Smartstore.NET 4 - which is built on classic .NET Framework 4.7.2 – to the new ASP.NET Core 6
platform. Smartstore instances based on classic ASP.NET MVC
can be upgraded seamlessly. To perform the upgrade, only the app files need to be replaced on your server - except for the App_Data
directory - and all data will be automatically transferred to the new system. Check the docs for detailed information about installing or upgrading your shop.
ℹ️ Upgrading from versions older than 4.2 is not possible. Therefore, you should first migrate Smartstore.NET to version 4.2 and then upgrade to Smartstore 5.
- Clone the repository using the command
git clone https://github.com/smartstore/Smartstore.git
and checkout themain
branch. - Download Visual Studio 2022 (any edition) from https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/
- Open
Smartstore.sln
and wait for Visual Studio to restore all NuGet packages - Ensure
Smartstore.Web
is the startup project and run it
Smartstore
contains common low-level application-agnostic stuff like bootstrapper, modularity engine, caching, pub/sub, imaging, type conversion, IO, templating, scheduling, various utilities, common extension methods etc.Smartstore.Data
contains database providersSmartstore.Core
contains application specific modules like catalog, checkout, identity, security, localization, logging, messaging, rules engine, search engine, theme engine, migrations etc.Smartstore.Web.Common
contains common web features like custom MVC infrastructure, bundling, TagHelpers, HtmlHelpers etc.Smartstore.Modules
contains all module/plugin projectsSmartstore.Web
is the entry host project that contains controllers, model classes, themes, static assets etc.
- Open the Smartstore solution in Visual Studio 2022
- Use Release configuration
- (Re)build the solution
- Publish host project Smartstore.Web
Run the build script corresponding to your target platform in the directory build: build.{Platform}.cmd
. The result build will be placed in the directory build/artifacts/Community.{Version}.{Platform}
. Also, a zip archive is created automatically in build/artifacts/.
By default, the build script produces a platform-dependent, self-contained application that includes the ASP.NET runtime and libraries, the Smartstore application and its dependencies. You can run it on any machine that doesn't have the .NET runtime installed.
Smartstore uses Nuke (https://nuke.build/) as build automation solution, which makes it easy to customize the build process by editing the file src/Smartstore.Build/Smartstore.Build/Build.cs
.
While building the solution, all modules in src/Smartstore.Modules/
are discovered, compiled and placed in the src/Smartstore.Web/Modules/
directory. The application runtime uses this directory as a source from which modules are dynamically
loaded from. However, during development, the "Modules" directory is irrelevant. You can safely delete it at any time.
To create a Docker image run build/dockerize.{Platform}[.nobuild].sh
.
Creates a Debian Linux base image including the complete ASP.NET runtime, builds the solution and publishes a framework-dependent application within the Linux container. Also installs wkhtmltopdf native library which is required to generate PDF files.
Much faster, but requires that the application was previously built and is located in build/artifacts/Community.{Version}.linux-x64
. Creates a Debian Linux base image including the ASP.NET runtime dependencies only and copies the build artifact. Also installs wkhtmltopdf native library which is required to generate PDF files.
Creates a Windows Nano Server base image including the ASP.NET runtime dependencies only and copies the build artifact. Requires that the application was previously built and is located in build/artifacts/Community.{Version}.win-x64
. Also requires that the Docker engine is running a Windows image.
To create a ready-to-run Docker container including a database server run compose.{DbSystem}.sh
.
Creates a composite Docker container containing the smartstore application image and the latest MySql image.
Creates a composite Docker container containing the smartstore application image and the latest MS SQL Server image.
