Shopware CLI

Shopware CLI is the open-source command-line interface for working with Shopware 6. It's a standalone developer tool that you install and configure separately from your Shopware instance. Once set up, it helps you automate and speed up common tasks such as:

• managing and configuring Shopware projects
• starting and operating an integrated Docker-based development environment
• building, validating, and packaging extensions
• uploading and maintaining extensions in the Shopware Store
• running CI/CD pipelines for Shopware-based solutions

For GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and Docker examples, see CI/CD and development environments.

Shopware CLI runs on macOS, Linux, and via Docker. For workstation hardware requirements, see the System Requirements. For PHP and stack requirements — including memory_limit ≥ 512M — see the recommended stack. Windows users should use WSL 2 or Docker. (See Installation Options page for Windows details.)

When you use the Docker-based development environment, run Composer and PHP tools inside the web container rather than on the host. See Running Composer, PHP, and npm.
