Magento 2 Installation Guide

Installation guide for the Hello Retail business Magento 2 extension.
Our Magento 2 extension is developed for Magento 2.2 and higher but should be compatible with 2.0 and 2.1 as long as PHP 7 is used in your environment.
Our category feed is dependent on API features released in Magento 2.2 and so will not work in 2.0 or 2.1.
Installation via Magento marketplace:
Our Magento extension can easily be installed via the web setup wizard and Magento marketplace.
In order to do so you will need to follow these steps:
- Go to marketplace.magento.com and login to you account.
- Locate the search bar and type in "addwish" - click the one for M2.
- Click the "add to cart" button and proceed to checkout - once the purchase is complete you can leave the site.
- Go to your magento 2 backend and find system -> web setup wizard and click it.
- Enter the extension manager - Make sure that you are connected to the Magento Marketplace Account on which you have purchased the addwish extension.
- Click the "Review and install" button under the headline "extensions ready to install".
- if you are connected to a magento marketplace account that has purchased the addwish extension, you should be able to locate the adddwish extension in the list - do so and click "Install".
- We encourage that you check with your developer on whether to do a backup or not.
- Click the "Install" button - As a default your shop will go in maintenance mode while installing the extension, so we recommend that you do this when there is little traffic on your site.
- If everything went smooth you should get a success notification. If errors occur please forward them to support@helloretail.com and possibly also have your developer look at it.
-
Final step is to locate addwish > Module Configuration in your left menu - click it.
Now you must insert your addwish partner ID (you find this in the setup flow or by logging in to your addwish business account and navigate to Settings > Tracking script).
On this page, you can also control the settings of the extension.
Installation via manual upload:
If you are comfortable with ftp and have shell access, then you can download and install our extension manually.
- Click here: to download version 1.1.20
- Navigate to <magento_main_dir>/app/code/ (if code folder ins't there you create it) and create a folder named Addwish. Inside the Addwish folder you create another folder called Awext, so you end up with a folder structure like this: <magento_main_dir>/app/code/Addwish/Awext
- Unpack the zip file and copy all the files inside the folder (not the folder itself, just the files inside) to the location we just created: <magento_main_dir>/app/code/Addwish/Awext
-
Run these commands in your shell:
php bin/magento module:enable Addwish_Awext
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:di:compile
- Once the extension has been installed, navigate to addwish > Module Configuration.
Here you must insert your addwish partner ID (you find this in the setup flow or by logging in to your addwish business account and navigate to Settings > Tracking script).
On this page, you can also control the settings of the extension.
Installation via composer:
The addwish extension is in the magento repo at repo.magento.com - in order to access this you need to make sure that this repo is in your magento's composer.json file (it should be as a default)
You may also want to add your magento marketplace private and public key to your magento's auth.json file
Next you need to follow steps 1-3 in the above guide "Installation via magento marketplace"
When this is done you should be able to install with the following commands:
composer require addwish/awext
php bin/magento module:enable Addwish_Awext
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:di:compile
Once the extension has been installed, navigate to addwish > Module Configuration.
Here you must insert your addwish partner ID (you find this in the setup flow or by logging in to your addwish business account and navigate to Settings > Tracking script).
On this page, you can also control the settings of the extension.
