README

This meta-package for the Shopware ecosystem focuses on supporting Shopware's Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering.

Purpose and Role

As a meta package, paas-meta serves as a collection of dependencies and recipe definitions required for running Shopware on P.SH PaaS environments. It centralizes configuration and platform-specific adjustments needed for smooth deployment and operations, and orchestrates the setup and environment expectations for Shopware running as a service on managed infrastructure. It does not contain application logic itself.

Key Features

• Brings Together Essentials: Pulls in required components via Composer, including Shopware core, deployment helpers, and integration packages necessary for PaaS use cases.
• Configuration Recipes: Provides and updates deployment recipes, including best practices and configuration templates (such as handling environment variables, mounts, deployment hooks) needed for Shopware in PaaS.
• Supports Automated Environments: Serves as the foundation for setting up Shopware stores on cloud platforms where code, infrastructure, and deployment need to be standardized and automated.

Typical Use

• As a Dependency: Add the shopware/paas-meta package to a Shopware project (typically using Composer). This ensures all PaaS-related dependencies and configurations are present.
• Build & Deploy Pipeline: Every push to a repository using this package triggers automated builds and deployments in the cloud PaaS environment, following the configuration provided by this meta-package (see also).

Who Should Use It

• Developers or merchants who want to deploy Shopware on a P.SH platform and need a standardized, officially-supported setup.
• Teams aiming to avoid manual, error-prone configuration.
