Smartstore 5 is a port ofSmartstore.NET 4 - based on the classic .NET Framework 4.7.2 – to the newASP.NET Core 7 platform. Smartstore instances based on classicASP.NET MVC can be upgraded seamlessly. Toupgrade, all you need to do is replace the application files on your server - except for theApp_Data directory - andall your data will automatically be transferred to the new system.See the documentation for detailed information on installing or upgrading your store.

ℹ️ Upgrading from versions older than 4.2 is not possible. Therefore, you should migrate Smartstore.NET to version 4.2 first and then upgrade to Smartstore 5.

• Clone the repository using the commandgit clone https://github.com/smartstore/Smartstore.git and checkout themain branch.
• Download Visual Studio 2022 (any edition) fromhttps://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/
• OpenSmartstore.sln and wait for Visual Studio to restore all NuGet packages
• Make sureSmartstore.Web is the startup project and run it

• Smartstore contains common low-level application-agnostic stuff like bootstrapper, modularity engine, caching, pub/sub, imaging, type conversion, IO, templating, scheduling, various utilities, common extension methods etc.
• Smartstore.Data contains database providers
• Smartstore.Core contains application specific modules like catalog, checkout, identity, security, localization, logging, messaging, rules engine, search engine, theme engine, migrations etc.
• Smartstore.Web.Common contains common web features like custom MVC infrastructure, bundling, TagHelpers, HtmlHelpers etc.
• Smartstore.Modules contains all module/plugin projects
• Smartstore.Web is the entry host project that contains controllers, model classes, themes, static assets etc.

1. Open the Smartstore solution in Visual Studio 2022
2. UseRelease configuration
3. (Re)build the solution
4. Publish host projectSmartstore.Web

Run the build script corresponding to your target platform in thebuild directory:build.{Platform}.cmd. The resulting build will be placed in thebuild/artifacts/Community.{Version}.{Platform} directory. A zip archive inbuild/artifacts/ is created automatically.

By default, the build script produces a platform-specific, self-contained application that includes the ASP.NET runtime and libraries, the Smartstore application and its dependencies. You can run it on any machine that doesn't have the .NET runtime installed.

Smartstore uses Nuke (https://nuke.build/) as its build automation solution, which makes it easy to customize the build process by editingsrc/Smartstore.Build/Smartstore.Build/Build.cs.

While building the solution, all modules insrc/Smartstore.Modules/ are detected, compiled and placed in thesrc/Smartstore.Web/Modules/ directory. The application runtime uses this directory as a source from which modules areloaded dynamically. During development, however, the "Modules" directory is irrelevant. You can safely delete it at any time.

To create a Docker image, runbuild/dockerize.{Platform}[.nobuild].sh.

Creates a Debian Linux base image including the complete ASP.NET runtime, builds the solution and publishes a framework-dependent application inside the Linux container. It also installs the nativewkhtmltopdf library needed to generate PDF files.

Much faster, but requires that the application has already been built and is located inbuild/artifacts/Community.{Version}.linux-x64. Creates a Debian Linux base image with only the ASP.NET runtime dependencies and copies the build artifact. It also installs the nativewkhtmltopdf library needed to generate PDF files.

Creates a Windows Nano Server base image with only the ASP.NET runtime dependencies and copies the build artifact. Requires that the application has already been built and is located inbuild/artifacts/Community.{Version}.win-x64. It also requires that the Docker engine is running a Windows image.

To create a ready-to-run Docker container with a database server runcompose.{DbSystem}.sh.

Creates a composite Docker container containing thesmartstore application image and the latestMySql image.

Creates a composite Docker container containing thesmartstore application image and the latestMS SQL Server image.

We have set up a live online demo for you to test Smartstore without a local installation. Get a first impression and test all available features in the frontend and backend. Please note that the backend demo is shared and other testers can modify data at the same time.
