# Installation ## Install Addon Install the addon with Composer: ```bash composer require aerni/snipcart ``` ## Perform Basic Configuration The installation process will automatically publish the addon's config to `config/snipcart.php`. Open the config and perform the following configuration: 1. **Sites:** Add the desired currency, length, and weight units for each of your sites. [Learn more](/getting-started/configuration.md#sites) 2. **Collections & Taxonomies:** Add the collections and taxonomies you want to use for your products. [Learn more](/getting-started/configuration.md#collections-and-taxonomies) ## Run Setup Command After configuring your **Sites** and **Collections & Taxonomies,** you may run the `setup` command. This will create all the necessary collections, taxonomies, and blueprints to get you started. ```bash php please snipcart:setup ``` After running the command, make sure to customize the configuration of the created collections and taxonomies to define the sites, templates, routes, etc. ## Add Snipcart API Keys Add your Snipcart API keys to your `.env` file. You can find them in your [Snipcart dashboard](https://app.snipcart.com/dashboard/account/credentials). ```bash SNIPCART_LIVE_KEY=************************ SNIPCART_LIVE_SECRET=************************ SNIPCART_TEST_KEY=************************ SNIPCART_TEST_SECRET=************************ ``` ## Add Script Tag Add the following tag to your layout view. Snipcart recommends adding it directly after the `` element. ```markup {{ snipcart:script }} ``` ## Add Webhook URL Add the absolute URL of the configured Snipcart webhook to your [Snipcart Dashboard](https://app.snipcart.com/dashboard/webhooks), eg. `https://my-shop.com/webhooks/snipcart` You can [customize the webhook route](https://snipcart.docs.michaelaerni.ch/setup/configuration#snipcart-webhook-route) in the config. The default route is `webhooks/snipcart`. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
