Introduction

Vendure is an open-source eCommerce platform built with TypeScript and Node.js. It is fast, flexible, and scalable, making it an ideal choice for businesses of all sizes. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Vendure on a Fedora Server latest.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, you need a few things:

• Fedora Server latest
• Node.js installed
• PostgreSQL installed

Step 1 - Install Vendure

To install Vendure, you need to use npm (Node package manager). Open your terminal and type the following command:

npm install --save @vendure/core @vendure/admin-ui @vendure/storefront-api

This command will install Vendure and its dependencies.

Step 2 - Configure Vendure

After installing Vendure, you need to configure it. Create a new file named vendure-config.ts in the root directory of your project and add the following code:

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { DefaultJobQueuePlugin, EventBusModule, PluginCommonModule } from '@vendure/core';
import { AdminUiPlugin } from '@vendure/admin-ui-plugin';
import { VendureConfig } from '@vendure/core';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    EventBusModule.forRoot(),
    PluginCommonModule,
    AdminUiPlugin.forRoot({
      // The default user credentials. These can be changed in the admin panel.
      superadminCredentials: {
        username: 'admin',
        password: 'admin',
      },
    }),
    DefaultJobQueuePlugin,
  ],
})
export class VendurePluginModule {}

export const config: VendureConfig = {
  apiOptions: {
    port: 3000,
    adminApiPath: 'admin-api',
  },
  authOptions: {
    sessionSecret: 'mysessionsecret',
    tokenMethod: 'bearer',
    requireVerification: true,
  },
  dbConnectionOptions: {
    type: 'postgres',
    synchronize: true,
    logging: false,
    database: 'vendure',
    host: 'localhost',
    port: 5432,
    username: 'postgres',
    password: 'mypass',
  },
  workerOptions: {
    runInMainProcess: true,
  },
  customFields: {},
  plugins: [VendurePluginModule],
};

In the code above, replace port, host, database, username, and password with your PostgreSQL database credentials.

Step 3 - Create the Database

Before we run the Vendure server, we need to create the database. Open the terminal and run:

createdb vendure

This command will create a new database named vendure.

Step 4 - Start the Server

To start the Vendure server, go to your project's root directory and type the following command in the terminal:

npx vendure-cli dev

This command will start the Vendure server in development mode.
