As soon as you log in as a customer employee, the B2B-Platform opens - that's what we call this Vue-Js interface.

But before you can start developing you have to start the Vue.js Watcher. In your local installation (we recommend DOCKWARE.IO) in the Shopware root folder you can use the following command to start the Vue.js Watcher:

Tip: When executing the watch command, the command goes through all folders and indexes the main.js files. So if you are developing an extension, start the watcher only after creating the main.js file in the "{pluginRoot}/src/Resources/app/b2b_platform/" folder.

Console command:

bin/console b2b:platform:watch <email>

Command example for Henk Becker (Employee at Ektek GmbH - Testdata)

bin/console b2b:platform:watch [e-mail] 

Command example for Markus Bauer (Sales Representative at Shopowner - Testdata)

bin/console b2b:platform:watch [e-mail]

After entering the command you get prompted to select the wanted sales channel and domain (if multiple are available).

Please select a sales channel:
  [0] Storefront | 3599498813f14f1a8abe0deb0e12d18
  [1] Headless | 98432def39fc4624b33213a56b8c944d
