prestashop-update-check

Requirements

Ask the user:

• What is the path to the module autoupgrade from the store. It may be in a Docker container or behind a SSH session.
• What is the admin folder name if you don't know it. It will be needed to run commands.

Usage:

• The commands of Update Assistant are run with [module_path]/bin/console,
• Commands details are provided by adding --help at the end.
• The param -q avoids unecessary contents to be displayed. If you need to access the logs after a backup, an update or a restore, you can find them in [admin_path]/autoupgrade/logs/ with files in the format [year]-[month]-[day]-[time]-[action].txt.

Steps

• Run update:check-new-version and display available versions (GATE). 3 channels may appear: online_recommended (default), online or local. online_recommended and online may not always appear. local requires the zip and xml files of the newer version of PrestaShop to be present in [shop_admin]/autoupgrade/download/. Ask the user to select the channel that will be used during the next steps
• Check the compatibility of the store with update:check-requirements. Additional checks can be done when specific feedback is displayed:
  • If the core files are modified (except index.php files and modules), you can assess how the changes are critical to the merchants by diffing from the original file on GitHub with the URL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop/refs/tags/[prestashop_source_version]/[path_to_file_from_root_store] (the placeholders have to be replaced with actual values). If the changes are critical for the business, recommend to move them in a module to avoid loosing them, or as last resort an override.
  • If theme files are modified (except index.php files), you can assess how the changes are critical to merchants by diffing from the original file on GitHub with the URL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PrestaShop/[theme_name]/refs/tags/[version_in_config/theme.yml_of_the_theme]/[path_to_file_from_root_store] (the placeholders have to be replaced with actual values). If the changes are critical for the business, recommend to move them in a child theme to avoid loosing them. This is only when assessing changes from default PrestaShop themes: classic, and hummingbird.
• Check the posts related to the current version of Update Assistant on https://github.com/PrestaShop/autoupgrade/discussions/categories/known-issues?discussions_q=is%3Aopen+category%3A%22Known+issues%22+label%3A%22Impacts%3A+[version]%22 by replacing [version] with the current major.minor version of the module. It can be found by running [module_path]/bin/console without any parameter.
• If there are errors, explain each one and suggest fixes — but do not fix anything automatically.
• Conclude with a clear go / no-go recommendation with a summary of errors / warnings / successes using the Severity levels below.

Severity levels

Marker	Severity	Meaning
🔴	Error	An issue that must be fixed before updating
🟡	Warning	Minor issue, worth fixing but not blocking
🟢	OK	A check that did not returned anything to fix or confirmed the readyness
