1. Getting Started

Requirements

Magento 2.4.0 CE or higher
A valid license for Hyvä Themes, please view https://hyva.io/license
For licensees: A Private Packagist Key
For partners: Access to Hyvä Gitlab

System Requirements

The system requirements depend on the versions of Magento and TailwindCSS in use.

At the time of writing, a node version >= 12.13.0 is required on development instances to run the tailwind compiler.
We recommend creating the bundle on development or staging instance, not on production.

The system requirements for Magento can be found in the devdocs.

Open Source Modules

All Hyvä open source modules (for example hyva-themes/magento2-graphql-token) are available via public packagist without configuring a composer repository.

For Licensees

Getting Started

You need a valid license and a Private Packagist key.

You should have received the instruction below when purchasing your license:

# this command adds your key to your projects auth.json file
# replace yourLicenseAuthentificationKey with your own key
composer config --auth http-basic.hyva-themes.repo.packagist.com token yourLicenseAuthentificationKey
# replace yourProjectName with your project name
composer config repositories.private-packagist composer https://hyva-themes.repo.packagist.com/yourProjectName/

Then, install the theme package and its dependencies:

composer require hyva-themes/magento2-default-theme

Next, run the Magento installer:

bin/magento setup:upgrade

Navigate to the Content > Design > Configuration admin section and activate the hyva/default theme.

In developer mode, you should now be able to see the theme in action on the frontend. A cache flush might be required.

In deploy mode production, running bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy is required.

In deploy mode default the newly installed modules will not be automatically enabled. You should however never operate a Magento store in default mode.

To create your child theme, continue with: Building your Theme

Additional Steps

Disabling unsupported bundled extensions

Since Magento 2.4.4

Before version 2.4.4 Magento came bundled with some third-party modules.
Since release 2.4.4 Magento no longer contains any bundled extensions, so this step is no longer applicable.

Some bundled extensions are not supported (yet). For installations before version 2.4.4 you may want to disable them, or even completely replace them with composer.

To disable (Magento 2.4.0 - 2.4.2):

bin/magento module:disable Dotdigitalgroup_Email Dotdigitalgroup_Chat Dotdigitalgroup_Sms

To disable (Magento 2.4.3 - 2.4.3-p2):

bin/magento module:disable Dotdigitalgroup_Email Dotdigitalgroup_Chat Dotdigitalgroup_ChatGraphQl Dotdigitalgroup_EmailGraphQl Dotdigitalgroup_Sms

Adobe Commerce

If you are running the Adobe Commerce before version 2.4.4, also disable: Dotdigitalgroup_Enterprise Dotdigitalgroup_B2b

Disabling Magento Captcha

Captcha Support

We currently don’t support the old Magento captcha implementation, which is enabled by default.

Instead, use one of the three Google ReCaptcha versions supported by Magento:
ReCaptcha V3 invisible, V2 invisible and v2 "I'm not a robot".

Please disable the default Magento Captcha for forms to work:

bin/magento config:set customer/captcha/enable 0

Ensure required GraphQL modules are enabled

By default all Magento GraphQL modules are enabled.

However, often unused GraphQL modules are disabled in Magento stores using the Luma theme.

Hyvä makes use of the Magento GraphQL API. Because of this these modules need to be enabled if they have been disabled:

Module	composer package name
Magento_BundleGraphQl	magento/module-bundle-graph-ql
Magento_CatalogCustomerGraphQl	magento/module-catalog-customer-graph-ql
Magento_CatalogGraphQl	magento/module-catalog-graph-ql

For Contributions and for Technology Partners

Getting Started

You need access to all Hyvä repositories at gitlab.hyva.io

You can configure the git repositories in your root composer.json and use the repositories directly as git repo’s beneath your vendor directory. You can check out tags and branches, make commits and push contributions to gitlab.hyva.io.

Tip

Ensure your SSH key is set in your Hyvä Gitlab account, as well as on github.com. If you use Docker, check that you use the SSH key available in the PHP container running Composer.

To configure and install Hyvä directly from gitlab with composer, run these commands:

# hosted on private gitlab:
composer config repositories.hyva-themes/magento2-theme-module git git@gitlab.hyva.io:hyva-themes/magento2-theme-module.git
composer config repositories.hyva-themes/magento2-reset-theme git git@gitlab.hyva.io:hyva-themes/magento2-reset-theme.git
composer config repositories.hyva-themes/magento2-email-module git git@gitlab.hyva.io:hyva-themes/magento2-email-module.git
composer config repositories.hyva-themes/magento2-default-theme git git@gitlab.hyva.io:hyva-themes/magento2-default-theme.git

composer require hyva-themes/magento2-default-theme --prefer-source

Next, run bin/magento setup:upgrade from your project’s root.

Do not use ssh-key authentication in CI/CD

We do not guarantee uptime for gitlab, so always use packagist.com for build pipelines and for production.
