CLI Commands (InstallerBundle)

oro:install

The oro:install command is the application installer. It installs the application with all schema and data migrations, prepares assets and application caches.

php bin/console oro:install

The --application-url option can be used to specify the URL at which the management console (back-office) of the application will be available. Please make sure that you web-server is configured properly.

php bin/console oro:install --application-url=<url>
php bin/console oro:install --application-url='http://example.com/'

It is also possible to modify the application URL after the installation:

php oro:config:update oro_ui.application_url 'http://example.com/'

The --organization-name option can be used to specify your company name:

php bin/console oro:install --organization-name=<company>
php bin/console oro:install --organization-name="Acme Inc."

The --user-name, --user-email, --user-firstname, --user-lastname and --user-password options allow to configure the admin user account details:

php bin/console oro:install --user-name=<username> --user-email=<email> --user-firstname=<firstname> --user-lastname=<lastname> --user-password=<password>

The –sample-data option can be used specify whether the demo sample data should be loaded after the installation:

php bin/console oro:install --sample-data=y
php bin/console oro:install --sample-data=n

The --language and --formatting code options should be used to specify the localization language and the localization formatting setting that are used by the application:

php bin/console oro:install --language=<language-code> --formatting-code=<formatting-code>
php bin/console oro:install --language=en --formatting-code=en_US

The --skip-assets option can be used to skip install and build of the frontend assets:

php bin/console oro:install --skip-assets

The --symlink option tells the asset installer to create symlinks instead of copying the assets (it may be useful during development):

php bin/console oro:install --symlink

The –skip-download-translations and –skip-translations options can be used to skip the step of downloading translations (already downloaded translations will be applied if present), or skip applying the translations completely:

php bin/console oro:install --skip-download-translations
php bin/console oro:install --skip-translations

The --drop-database option should be provided when reinstalling the application from scratch on top of the existing database that needs to be wiped out first, or otherwise the installation will fail:

php bin/console oro:install --drop-database

Please see below an example with the most commonly used options:

php bin/console oro:install \
  -vvv \
  --env=prod \
  --timeout=600 \
  --language=en \
  --formatting-code=en_US \
  --organization-name='Acme Inc.' \
  --user-name=admin \
  --user-email=admin@example.com \
  --user-firstname=John \
  --user-lastname=Doe \
  --user-password='PleaseReplaceWithSomeStrongPassword' \
  --application-url='http://example.com/' \
  --sample-data=y

Or, as a one-liner:

php bin/console oro:install -vvv --env=prod --timeout=600 --language=en --formatting-code=en_US --organization-name='Acme Inc.' --user-name=admin --user-email=admin@example.com --user-firstname=John --user-lastname=Doe --user-password='PleaseReplaceWithSomeStrongPassword' --application-url='http://example.com/' --sample-data=y

The --force-debug option will launch the child commands in the debug mode (be default they are launched with –no-debug):

php bin/console oro:install --force-debug other options

The --timeout option can be used to limit execution time of the child commands:

php bin/console oro:install --timeout=<seconds> other options

oro:platform:run-script

Runs OroScript files in the application scope:

php bin/console oro:platform:run-script

oro:platform:update

The oro:platform:update command executes the application update commands to update the application state and to (re-)build the application assets.

php bin/console oro:platform:update

The --force option is just a safety switch. The command will exit after checking the system requirements if this option is not used.

php bin/console oro:platform:update --force

The --skip-assets option can be used to skip install and build of the frontend assets:

php bin/console oro:platform:update --force --skip-assets
