The Channable Connect extension makes it effortless to connect your Magento® 2 catalog with the Channable platform.

Installation

To make the integration process as easy as possible for you, we have developed various plugins for your webshop software package. This is the manual for installing the Magento® 2 Plugin. Before you start up the installation process, we recommend that you make a backup of your webshop files, as well as the database.

There are 2 different methods to install the Magento® 2 extension.

Install by using Composer
Install by using the Magento® Marketplace

Installation using Composer

Magento® 2 use the Composer to manage the module package and the library. Composer is a dependency manager for PHP. Composer declare the libraries your project depends on and it will manage (install/update) them for you.

Check if your server has composer installed by running the following command:

composer –v

If your server doesn’t have composer installed, you can easily install it by using this manual: https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md

Step-by-step to install the Magento® 2 extension through Composer:

Connect to your server running Magento® 2 using SSH or other method (make sure you have access to the command line).
Locate your Magento® 2 project root.
Install the Magento® 2 extension through composer and wait till it's completed:

composer require magmodules/magento2-channable

Once completed run the Magento® module enable command:

bin/magento module:enable Magmodules_Channable

After that run the Magento® upgrade and clean the caches:

php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento cache:flush

If Magento® is running in production mode you also need to redeploy the static content:

php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

After the installation: Go to your Magento® admin portal and open ‘Stores’ > ‘Configuration’ > ‘Magmodules’ > ‘Channable’.
