Upgrade from Smartstore.NET 4.2

Smartstore 5 is a port of Smartstore.NET 4 - based on the classic .NET Framework 4.7.2 – to the new ASP.NET Core 7 platform. Smartstore instances based on classic ASP.NET MVC can be upgraded seamlessly. To upgrade, all you need to do is replace the application files on your server - except for the App_Data directory - and all your data will automatically be transferred to the new system. See the documentation for detailed information on installing or upgrading your store.

:information_source: Upgrading from versions older than 4.2 is not possible. Therefore, you should migrate Smartstore.NET to version 4.2 first and then upgrade to Smartstore 5.

Build Smartstore

Option 1 - by publishing the entry host project

  1. Open the Smartstore solution in Visual Studio 2022
  2. Use Release configuration
  3. (Re)build the solution
  4. Publish host project Smartstore.Web

Option 2 - by running a build script

Run the build script corresponding to your target platform in the build directory: build.{Platform}.cmd. The resulting build will be placed in the build/artifacts/Community.{Version}.{Platform} directory. A zip archive in build/artifacts/ is created automatically.

By default, the build script produces a platform-specific, self-contained application that includes the ASP.NET runtime and libraries, the Smartstore application and its dependencies. You can run it on any machine that doesn't have the .NET runtime installed.

Smartstore uses Nuke (https://nuke.build/) as its build automation solution, which makes it easy to customize the build process by editing src/Smartstore.Build/Smartstore.Build/Build.cs.

About the "src/Smartstore.Web/Modules" directory

While building the solution, all modules in src/Smartstore.Modules/ are detected, compiled and placed in the src/Smartstore.Web/Modules/ directory. The application runtime uses this directory as a source from which modules are loaded dynamically. During development, however, the "Modules" directory is irrelevant. You can safely delete it at any time.

Creating Docker images

To create a Docker image, run build/dockerize.{Platform}[.nobuild].sh.

dockerize.linux.sh

Creates a Debian Linux base image including the complete ASP.NET runtime, builds the solution and publishes a framework-dependent application inside the Linux container. It also installs the native wkhtmltopdf library needed to generate PDF files.

dockerize.linux.nobuild.sh

Much faster, but requires that the application has already been built and is located in build/artifacts/Community.{Version}.linux-x64. Creates a Debian Linux base image with only the ASP.NET runtime dependencies and copies the build artifact. It also installs the native wkhtmltopdf library needed to generate PDF files.

dockerize.windows.nobuild.sh

Creates a Windows Nano Server base image with only the ASP.NET runtime dependencies and copies the build artifact. Requires that the application has already been built and is located in build/artifacts/Community.{Version}.win-x64. It also requires that the Docker engine is running a Windows image.

Creating Docker containers

To create a ready-to-run Docker container with a database server run compose.{DbSystem}.sh.

compose.mysql.sh

Creates a composite Docker container containing the smartstore application image and the latest MySql image.

compose.sqlserver.sh

Creates a composite Docker container containing the smartstore application image and the latest MS SQL Server image.

Try it online

We have set up a live online demo for you to test Smartstore without a local installation. Get a first impression and test all available features in the frontend and backend. Please note that the backend demo is shared and other testers can modify data at the same time.
