This template builds the Akeneo PIM system for Platform.sh. By default it uses the "minimal" install profile. It requires at least a Medium plan as it uses a Worker instance for queue processing.
Akeneo is a Product Information Management (PIM) tool, which acts as a central store for product information, catalog information, and inventory management.
- PHP 7.4
- MySQL 8.0
- Elasticsearch 7.7
-
The first time the site is deployed, Akeneo's command line installer will run and initialize the database. It will not run again unless the
installer/.platform.installedis removed. (Do not remove that file unless you want the installer to run on the next deploy!) -
The installer will create an administrator account with username/password
admin/admin. You need to change this password immediately. Not doing so is a security risk.
The following changes have been made relative to Akeneo as it is downloaded from Akeneo.com. If using this project as a reference for your own existing project, replicate the changes below to your project.
- The
.platform.app.yaml,.platform/services.yaml, and.platform/routes.yamlfiles have been added. These provide Platform.sh-specific configuration and are present in all projects on Platform.sh. You may customize them as you see fit. - The
.environmentfile maps the Platform.sh environment variables to those expected by Akeneo. You can add additional environment setup there as needed but do not remove the lines that already exist.
