OXID eShop Admin-Tools Module

This module adds admin tools to the OXID eShop Admin Backoffice, allowing admins to select and clear specific or all subshop caches via a dropdown in the header.

Features

• Provides an admin toolbar dropdown for cache management.
• Allows selective or complete cache removal.
• Optionally integrates with OXAPI GraphQL for cache clearing via API.
• Includes ShopController as a service for better modularity.

Branch Compatibility

• v1.1.0 (or b-7.4.x branch) is compatible with latest shop compilation 7.4.x resp. b-7.4.x shop compilation branches
• v1.0.0 (or b-7.3.x branch) is compatible with latest shop compilation 7.3.x resp. b-7.3.x shop compilation branches

Install and activate

# Install desired version of oxid-esales/admin-tools, in this case - latest released 1.x version for OXID 7.4.
$ composer require oxid-esales/admin-tools ^1.1.0

You should run migrations both after installing the module and after each module update:

$ ./vendor/bin/oe-eshop-doctrine_migration migrations:migrate oe_admintools

# Activate the module
# 
$ ./vendor/bin/oe-console oe:module:activate oe_admintools

Cache Clearing Options

This module provides multiple cache clearing mechanisms.
The available options can be accessed via Admin UI or OXAPI GraphQL.

Available Cache Removal Types

Cache Type	Description
Template Cache	Removes compiled Twig template files.
Internal Cache	Clears OXID eShop’s internal caching mechanism.
Container Cache	Clears the dependency injection container cache (Symfony-based).
Module Caches	Clears caches related to installed modules.
All Caches	Performs a complete cache reset (combining all above caches).

Usage

This assumes you have OXID eShop (at least OXID-eSales/oxideshop_ce: v7.4.0 component, which is part of the 7.4.0 compilation) up and running.

Admin Panel Usage

• Go to the Admin Backoffice.
• Locate the Cache Clear Dropdown in the header.
• Select the cache type you want to clear.
• Click Clear Cache.

OXAPI Integration

The module extends GraphQL API (OXAPI), allowing cache clearing via API.

# Install and activate compatible version of oxid-esales/graphql-base, in this case - latest released 12.x version for OXID 7.4.
#
$ composer require oxid-esales/graphql-base ^12.0.0
$ ./vendor/bin/oe-eshop-doctrine_migration migrations:migrate oe_graphql_base
$ ./vendor/bin/oe-console oe:module:activate oe_graphql_base

Available GraphQL Queries

Query Name	Functionality
clearTemplateCache	Clears template-related cache.
clearInternalCache	Clears internal system cache.
clearContainerCache	Clears DI container cache.
clearModuleCaches	Clears module-related cache.
clearCaches	Clears all caches at once.

OXAPI Authentication Requirements

To clear caches via GraphQL API, a user must be authenticated and have the required permissions.

Authentication Details

• Requires a valid OXAPI JWT token in the Authorization header.
• The user must belong to the "gqladmintoolscache" user group.

Example GraphQL Request

Here’s how to clear all caches using GraphQL.

GraphQL Query

query {
  clearCaches
}

Only a logged in user with sufficient OXAPI permission will be permitted to call these queries. 'Logged in' means valid OXAPI JWT with sufficient permissions is sent in Authorization Bearer Header. User in question must be a member of 'gqladmintoolscache' usergroup.

Controller as a Service

The module provides ShopController as a service, making it extendable, testable, and reusable.

Example: ShopController

The ShopController is now registered as a service in Shop/Controller/services.yaml:

services:
  OxidEsales\AdminTools\CacheClear\Shop\Controller\ShopController:
    tags:
      - { name: 'oxid.controller', controller_key: 'admintoolscacheclear' }
    public: true

Development installation on OXID eShop SDK

The installation instructions below are shown for the current SDK for shop 7.4. Make sure your system meets the requirements of the SDK.

0. Ensure all docker containers are down to avoid port conflicts

1. Clone the SDK for the new project

echo MyProject && git clone https://github.com/OXID-eSales/docker-eshop-sdk.git $_ && cd $_

2. Clone the repository to the source directory

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/OXID-eSales/admin-tools-module.git --branch=b-7.4.x ./source

3. Run the recipe to setup the development environment

./source/recipes/setup-development.sh

You should be able to access the shop via

• Frontend http://localhost.local
• Admin Panel: http://localhost.local/admin
  • (credentials: noreply@oxid-esales.com / admin)

Running tests locally

Check the "scripts" section in the composer.json file for the available commands. Those commands can be executed by connecting to the php container and running the command from there, example:

make php
composer tests-coverage

Commands can be also triggered directly on the container with docker compose, example:

docker compose exec -T php composer tests-coverage
