Shells

Croogo now has the ability to install and activate extensions from the command line. To access the shells cd in your app folder and run the commands using: ./Console/cake [shell].

Install Shell

Most extensions you’ll find on Github.com. To install the megamenu plugin extension from github type:

$ ./Console/cake install plugin https://github.com/rchavik/megamenu

Or:

$ ./Console/cake install plugin rchavik megamenu

Themes can also be installed the same way:

$ ./Console/cake install theme https://github.com/fahad19/themes

If you have a zip file located somewhere else, type:

$ ./Console/cake install theme http://example.com/mytheme.zip

Ext Shell

You can activate/deactivate plugins and themes from the console. To activate the Megamenu extension previously installed:

$ ./Console/cake ext activate plugin Megamenu

To deactivate:

$ ./Console/cake ext deactivate plugin Megamenu

Settings Shell

The Settings plugin provides a few utility command to manipulate configuration values:

  • Reading a configuration:

    $ ./Console/cake settings.settings read Site.title

  • Writing a configuration value:

    $ ./Console/cake settings.settings write Site.title "My Awesome Site"

  • Deleting a configuration value:

    $ ./Console/cake settings.settings delete Custom.settingValue

  • Updating version information after an upgrade:

    $ ./Console/cake settings.settings upgrade_version_info

Users Shell

You can reset a user’s password from the shell:

$ ./Console/cake users.users reset admin password
