The README.md

MX Helper Bar

The MX Helper Bar for Magento 2 is intended to help store admins and operators by:, (*1)

  • showing at a glance which environment(Pipeline instance) they are using so they won't inadvertently make the changes to the wrong environment.
  • acting as a super shortcut bar which allows you to quickly search and perform a list of common tasks, such as clearing cache types, without having to navigate away from the page.
  • New Feature: Customizable Commands- easily add your own shortcuts for your customers, or yourself to speed up M2

Commands

What follows is a list of the commands currently available. This list will grow and get better with time (like wine!)., (*3)

Clear Cache (cc)

This command will allow you to refresh cache types as if you were doing it from the Magento Cache Management page., (*4)

Start typing 'cc' in the Helper Bar textbox to see the list of available commmands. All the following are valid commands:, (*5)

  > cc
  > cc configuration
  > cc database ddl operations

Template Path and Block Hints (tph)

This command allow you to enable or disable template path hints as you were doing it from Stores -> Configuration -> Advanced -> Developer -> Debug, (*6)

For instance choose tph front en and this will set: Enabled Template Path Hints for Storefront and Add Block Names to Hints to 'Yes', (*7)

instead, if you choose tph en this will enable the template hints on the storefront and in the adminhtml site area, (*8)

The navigation shortcut commands allow you to quickly navigate to other magento pages. For instance choose nav cms block to be redirected to the Cms Blocks page., (*9)

If you want to contribute adding more shortcuts you can easily do so by editing the etc/di.xml file., (*10)

Add a new virtualType_ (see as an example _navigation_redirect_cms_page) and inject it as a new argument in the type MX\HelperBar\Model\NavigationRedirectRepository, (*11)

Installing

Then add the module to the require section of the composer file:, (*12)

  $ ./php composer.phar require "mx/module-helper-bar": "~1.0.1"

This command will add:, (*13)

  "require": {
    "mx/module-helper-bar": "~1.0.1"
  }

Enable

Once the module is added as dependency, run the Magento setup module, clear the cache and make sure the module status is enabled., (*14)

  $ bin/magento setup:upgrade
  $ bin/magento c:c
  $ bin/magento module:status MX_HelperBar

Now that the module is enabled, you need to make the Helper Bar visible., (*15)

video of how to install , (*16)

Navigate to: Stores -> Configuration -> Advanced -> Developer -> Debug and select "Yes" for the option with label "Enabled Helper Bar for Admin", (*17)

Then refresh the page and you will see the Helper Bar at the bottom of the screen. If you wish, you can temporarily hide it by pressing the 'X' or using CTRL + ` as a keyboard shortcut., (*18)
