Installing an existing database

• Uncomment and complete the code here to have the script import an existing Magento 2 database.
• Replace staging-domain.com in the file with your Magento 2 url, this will be replaced with the current gitpod workspace URL before import.
• Compress your .sql file and place into the gitpod folder as magento-db.sql.zip
• Set INSTALL_MAGENTO = No in the .gitpod.Dockerfile

Road Map

• [x] Run Magento fully installed on load
• [x] Have no files marked as changed in GIT.
• [x] Install Magento SQL once on first load, delete flag to reinstall
• [x] Import staging SQL file replacing urls
• [x] Improve config to simplify configuring the build components
• [x] Add MailPit SMTP mail catcher with zero config
• [x] Magento 2.4.6 and PHP8.2 support
• [x] Add additional SQL and config updates, Magento config for SMTP details, Algolia indexing etc.
• [x] Accept values for Magento configuration through Gitpod ENV
