Send all queued emails
Since Magento CE 1.9.1 all “new order emails” are queued. A new defined cronjob core_email_queue_send_all is now processing the queued emails. During development it’s not very handy to run the job by a minute based scheduler. In this case you can use n98-magerun to start the cronjob manually. $> n98-magerun.phar Read more…

Quick Tip: If you only see some question marks…
… this could be a PHP Unicode setting. Try to turn off detect_unicode in your php.ini. You can simply try this by running n98-magerun like this: $> php -d detect_unicode=Off n98-magerun.phar If question marks are gone the problem is solved. The PHP issue also affects some popular tools like composer Read more…

Add your own check to sys:check command
For two days we published the new n98-magerun version 1.90.0 with a refactored sys:check command.
The command is now modular and all checks are organized in sub-classes.
It’s now possible to add own checks to the command. The blog post shows you how easy it is.
Registration of Check Classes
If you investigate the distribution config of n98-magerun you can see a bunch of new configuration for the command.
The new config node is “checks” which contains the class names of all checks. All classes are organized in check groups.

Quick Tip: Run multiple specific indexers
To reindex all indexers we have the index:reindex:all command.
In some cases it’s only needed to reindex only some indexers.
Since version 1.75.0 you can specify the indexer by code if you run pass index codes direct as argument:
$ n98-magerun.phar index:reindex catalog_product_attribute,tag_summary

Tip: Use aliases to quick reference Magento XML config
Magento’s merged XML config is very huge but not all parts must be referenced during development. Some parts are really important for debugging.
To do this smart n98-magerun offers the “config:dump” command which prints all the merged XML config at once.
As second parameter you can add an XQuery like argument.

Tip: Create a Console Helper
Since version 1.77.0 we provide an easy registration of console helpers.
Console Helpers are way to share functionality with other commands.
I will show you how easy it is to create such a helper.
Out example helper will return the current system time.
Create a new module
Create a new folder in your home directory with the name “.n98-magerun/modules/example-module”.
mkdir -p ~/.n98-magerun/modules/example-module

Quick Tip: Find login issues with sys:check command
Sometimes it’s not possible to login to Magento Admin Panel.
Searching for a solution can be very frustrating.
One of the most common purposes for this is a wrong configuration of the cookie domains.
Another problem is that Magento searches for a dot in the hostname.
Also wrong directory permission can cause this issue.
To prevent manually checks you can use the sys:check command bundled with n98-magerun.
All the sys:check commands are created by netz98 employees who had the same problems over the last month.
