README

Composer plugin that seamlessly applies patches to enable Magewire functionality in Magento 2's backend area. Fully automated patching with no manual intervention required.

⚠️ This plugin is specifically designed for the magewirephp/magewire module. Ensure it's installed before using this patcher.

✅ Installation

Add the Magewire Backend Patcher to your project via Composer:

composer require disrex/magewire-backend-patcher

Note: The patch will be automatically applied during installation or updates if the magewirephp/magewire module is present in the project.

🔧 How It Works

The plugin automatically performs these steps during Composer operations:

• Automatic Detection: Searches for the Magewire module at vendor/magewirephp/magewire
• Patch Application: Applies the backend compatibility patch during post-install and post-update phases
• Validation: Checks if patches are already applied and prevents conflicts
• Safety: Includes safeguards against re-application with user warnings

🚀 Features

• ✅ Fully automated - no manual patching required
• ✅ Enables Magewire in both frontend and backend contexts
• ✅ Includes validation checks and conflict prevention
• ✅ Compatible with standard Composer workflows

📋 Requirements

• PHP: ^8.0

• Magento: Compatible with Magento 2 environments
• Magewire module: magewirephp/magewire must be installed

🛠️ Manual Patch Application

If needed, manually trigger the patch process:

composer run-script post-install-cmd

This will reapply the patch and display the operation status.
