Kellerkinder Shopware 6 Development Helper

This plugin provides a safety net for local development environments, marking them clearly as such. It also makes sure your mailer configuration is set to send to a local mail server (like https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog).

Notable Features:

• Adds a notice about being in a development environment in Storefront and Administration.
• Checks for safe mailer configuration (localhost and using the environment variable for configuration)

Installation

Include the plugin in your local Shopware system:

composer req k10r/development --dev

Install the plugin. Make sure to only do this on your local installation and not on a server installation or any shop that should be able to send mails.

bin/console plugin:refresh ; bin/console plugin:install --activate K10rDevelopment

Usage

As long as the plugin is installed and active, it will check for the correct mailer configuration on any request and command execution. If the configuration is not valid, it will throw an exception and block any action in your shop. You may have to deactivate the plugin via the database, change your configuration and reactivate it.

⚠️ Make sure to reactivate the plugin after fixing any configuration issues. Otherwise, its validation is not active, increasing the risk of unwanted email deliveries in local systems.
