One of the key challenges encountered during the migration process from Shopware 5 to Shopware 6 is the absence of the product downloads feature in Shopware 6. This gap in migration leaves the process incomplete. In this blog post, we will outline a straightforward step-by-step guide to successfully migrating product downloads from Shopware 5 to Shopware 6.
In Shopware 5, product downloads are stored as part of product media. Therefore, when we utilize the Migration Assistant plugin, all product downloads will be automatically migrated to Shopware 6 media. The remaining steps involve assigning these migrated downloads to the correct products and configuring them for display in the frontend of your Shopware 6 store.
Step 1. Create custom fields for downloads and show them on the product detail page.
We are developing a plugin that includes the creation of custom fields and the extension of product detail page Twig templates. These custom fields will be used to store and display product downloads. Our goal is to showcase these downloads in a new tab near the reviews section. Below, you will find an example of how to add custom field creation code within the class file of the newly created plugin.
| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 | public function install(InstallContext $installContext): void { /** * @var EntityRepositoryInterface $customFieldSetRepository */ $customFieldSetRepository = $this->container->get('custom_field_set.repository'); $customFieldSetRepository->create($this->getCustomFieldSet(), $installContext->getContext()); } |
| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 | protected function getCustomFieldSet(): array { return [ [ 'name' => 'hatslogic_product_downloads', 'config' => [ 'label' => [ 'de-DE' => 'Downloads', 'en-GB' => 'Downloads', ], ], 'customFields' => [ [ 'name' => 'hatslogic_product_download_1', 'type' => 'media', 'config' => [ 'customFieldPosition' => 1, 'componentName' => 'sw-media-field', 'customFieldType' => 'media', 'label' => [ 'de-DE' => 'Download 1', 'en-GB' => 'Download 1', ], ], ], 'relations' => [ [ 'entityName' => $this->container->get(ProductDefinition::class)->getEntityName() ] ] ] ]; } |
In the services.xml file, please include the following two services:
| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 | <service id="HatsLogicProductDownloadsSubscriberPageSubscriber"> <argument type="service" id="ShopwareCoreSystemSystemConfigSystemConfigService" /> <argument type="service" id="HatsLogicProductDownloadsServiceProductDownloadsService" /> <tag name="kernel.event_subscriber" /> </service> <service id="HatsLogicProductDownloadsServiceProductDownloadsService"> <argument type="service" id="media.repository"/> <argument type="service" id="custom_field.repository"/> </service> |
In the Product Downloads Service class, add a function to get the download file.Â
