The 14 best Oxid modules for affiliate, payment, SEO and more

There are basically two ways in which you can install Oxid modules: Via Composer or manually. Using our Mollie module as an example, we will show you both ways.

Installing Oxid modules via Composer

Step 1: Create a Mollie account

Create a Mollie account or log in to your existing Mollie account.

Step 2: Log in to the web server

Connect to your web server via SSH and navigate to the root directory of your Oxid installation (where the composer.json is located).

Step 3: Install the Oxid module

Now install the Mollie plugin for Oxid with the following command:

composer require mollie/mollie-oxid

Installing Oxid modules manually

Step 1: Create a Mollie account

If you do not yet have a Mollie account, first create an account for your company.

Step 2: Download zip file with Oxid module

Download the current release from GitHub.

Step 3: Create a folder on the web server

Log in to your web server and create the "mollie" folder in the "source/modules" folder. Then create the subfolder "molliepayment" in the folder you have just created.

Step 4: Upload module content

Now upload the content of the zip file downloaded in step 2 to the "sources/modules/mollie/molliepayment" folder.

Step 5: Edit Composer.json

Now add the following code to the autoload configuration of the "composer.json" file in the root directory of your Oxid installation:

"autoload": {
  "psr-4": {
    "Mollie\\Payment\\": "./source/modules/mollie/molliepayment",
    "Mollie\\Api\\": "./source/modules/mollie/molliepayment/lib/mollie-api-php/src/"
  }
},

Then execute the composer dump-autoload command via the console in the root directory.

Step 6: Import module configuration

Navigate via SSH to the folder containing the Source and Vendor folders. Execute the following commands there:

vendor/bin/oe-console oe:module:install-configuration source/modules/mollie/molliepayment/

vendor/bin/oe-console oe:module:apply-configuration

You will then receive the message "Module configuration has been installed" and "Applying modules configuration for the store with id 1: Applying configuration for module with id molliepayment"

You can now continue with the plugin configuration to finish setting up the Mollie Oxid module.
