Yireo DevHacks

Magento version PHP version License Latest Version

Magento 2 module with development hacks, that came in handy for myself.

Installation

Use the following commands to install:

composer require yireo/magento2-devhacks:@dev --dev

Enable this module:

./bin/magento module:enable Yireo_DevHacks
./bin/magento setup:upgrade

Skip template path validation

The core checks whether PHTML templates are in the path of the Magento core. When using the composer feature path to symlink a local repository to Magento, while the path is outside of Magento, this throws an exception. This module simply skips the entire logic. No configuration needed. Bam.

Toggle TESTS_CLEANUP in integration tests configuration

Moved to separate Yireo_IntegrationTestHelper module instead.
