Enabling profiler feature on Magento 2:If you wish to enable the profiler feature you need to set the MAGE_PROFILER server variable to MSP\DevTools\Profiler\Driver\Standard\Output\DevTools. You can do it in several ways:Editing index.php:Add the following line at the very beginning on index.php and pub/index.php file:

$_SERVER['MAGE_PROFILER'] = [ 'drivers' => [['output' => 'MSP\DevTools\Profiler\Driver\Standard\Output\DevTools']] ];

1

$_SERVER['MAGE_PROFILER'] = [ 'drivers' => [['output' => 'MSP\DevTools\Profiler\Driver\Standard\Output\DevTools']] ];

Editing .htaccess file

Add the following line to your .htaccess file (at the bottom is okay):

SetEnv MAGE_PROFILER MSP\DevTools\Profiler\Driver\Standard\Output\DevTools

Magento 2 Module Development

Ref: https://www.mageplaza.com/magento-2-module-development/

The module is a directory that contains blocks, controllers, models, helper, etc – that are related to a specific business feature. In Magento 2, modules will be live in app/code directory of a Magento installation, with this format: app/code/<Vendor>/<ModuleName>. I use Magento 2.1.5 CE. Here is the installation steps.

Create Hello World module for Magento 2

Step 1: Create a directory for the module like above format.
Here I use Advcha as a Vendor name and HelloWorld as a ModuleName.
So create a directory: app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld.

Step 2: Declare module by using configuration file module.xml
Create a new file module.xml in app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/etc/ directory. Here is the full path: app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/etc/module.xml
Here is the file content:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Module/etc/module.xsd">
    <module name="Advcha_HelloWorld" setup_version="1.0.0" />
</config>

<?xml version="1.0"?>

</config>

Here I register a module with name Advcha_HelloWorld and the version is 1.0.0.

Step 3: Register module by registration.php
Magento 2 module must be registered in the Magento system through the magento ComponentRegistrar class. This file will be placed in module root directory. Create a new file registration.php (beware the file name case-sensitive, it must be registration.php NOT Registration.php) in app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/ directory. Here is the full path: app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/registration.php
Here is the file content:

<?php
\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::register(
    \Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::MODULE,
    'Advcha_HelloWorld',
    __DIR__
);

<?php

\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::register(

\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::MODULE,

'Advcha_HelloWorld',

__DIR__

);

Step 4: Enable the module
Before enable the module, we must check to make sure Magento has recognize our module or not by enter the following at the command line: php bin/magento module:status

www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento module:status
...
List of disabled modules:
Advcha_HelloWorld

www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento module:status

...

List of disabled modules:

Advcha_HelloWorld

Run this command php bin/magento module:enable Advcha_HelloWorld to enable it:

www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento module:enable Advcha_HelloWorld
The following modules have been enabled:
- Advcha_HelloWorld

To make sure that the enabled modules are properly registered, run 'setup:upgrade'.
Cache cleared successfully.
Generated classes cleared successfully. Please run the 'setup:di:compile' command to generate classes.
Info: Some modules might require static view files to be cleared. To do this, run 'module:enable' with the --clear-static-content option to clear them.

www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento module:enable Advcha_HelloWorld

The following modules have been enabled:

- Advcha_HelloWorld

To make sure that the enabled modules are properly registered, run 'setup:upgrade'.

Cache cleared successfully.

Generated classes cleared successfully. Please run the 'setup:di:compile' command to generate classes.

Info: Some modules might require static view files to be cleared. To do this, run 'module:enable' with the --clear-static-content option to clear them.

Magento require to check and upgrade module database. We need to run this command php bin/magento setup:upgrade.

Cache cleared successfully

Module 'Advcha_HelloWorld':

...

Please re-run Magento compile command

Now you can check under Stores -> Configuration -> Advanced -> Advanced that the module is present.Step 5: Create a Routers for the module.
A request URL has the following format:

http://magentoce215.dev/<router_id>/<controller_name>/<action_name>

1	http://magentoce215.dev/<router_id>/<controller_name>/<action_name>

NOTE: Here I replaced <router_name> to <router_id> after I read this article Magento 2: Advanced Routing.
“The id identifies the route node uniquely in the Magento system, and the frontName defines the first segment of your URL.”
At first I thought it was <router_name> before I found the article. But I confused because this tutorial is working even if I didn’t change the id from ‘advcha’ to ‘helloworld.??? So the url would be http://magentoce215.dev/helloworld/*
In this module, we need to create a route for frontend area. So we need to add this file: app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/etc/frontend/routes.xml.
Here is the content:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:App/etc/routes.xsd">
    <router id="standard">
        <route id="advcha" frontName="helloworld">
            <module name="Advcha_HelloWorld" />
        </route>
    </router>
</config>

<?xml version="1.0"?>

</route>

</router>

</config>

After define the route, the URL path to our module will be: http://magentoce215.dev/helloworld/*
So our <router_name> is helloworld ???

Step 6: Create controller and action.
we will create controller and action to display ‘Hello World’. Our <controller_name> would be index and <action_name> would be display. We need to create a new php file: app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/Controller/Index/Display.php
Here is the file content:

<?php
namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Controller\Index;

class Display extends \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action
{
    public function __construct(\Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context $context){
        return parent::__construct($context);
    }
    
    public function execute(){
        echo 'Hello World!';
        exit;
    }
}

<?php

namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Controller\Index;

class Display extends \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action

{

public function __construct(\Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context $context){

return parent::__construct($context);

}

public function execute(){

echo 'Hello World!';

exit;

}

Now we can open the url to show ‘Hello World!’ from our module: http://magentoce215.dev/helloworld/index/display
Note: If there is no change, please flush the cache with this command: php bin/magento cache:flush.

Step 7: Add to github.
It’s a good way to store also our code in github. Here is how to do it:
Exit from ‘www-data’ user then Go into /app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/ directory:

www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215/app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/$ exit
exit
teddy@teddy-K43SJ:~/Documents/works/magentoce215$ cd app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/

www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215/app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/$ exit

exit

teddy@teddy-K43SJ:~/Documents/works/magentoce215$ cd app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/

Initialize with git init:

teddy@teddy-K43SJ:~/Documents/works/magentoce215/app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld$ git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215/app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/.git/

Go into your github account and create a new repository. I created a new repo ‘magento2-sample-module’ (https://github.com/advcha/magento2-sample-module). Then use git remote add origin https://github.com/advcha/magento2-sample-module.git and git push -u origin master to update the remote reposity.

teddy@teddy-K43SJ:~/Documents/works/magentoce215/app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld$ git remote add origin https://github.com/advcha/magento2-sample-module.git

Then we can use git add command to prepare our files or use git GUI to make it easier. I use gitcola. First, stage the files, then commit and push. Done!

Create Controllers in Magento 2
ref: https://www.mageplaza.com/magento-2-module-development/how-to-create-controllers-magento-2.html
In Magento 2 Controller has one or more files in Controller folder of module, it includes actions of class which contain execute() method. There are 2 different controllers, they are frontend controller and backend controller. They are generally similar of workflow, but admin controller is a little different. There is a checking permission method in admin controller.
Here for the first step, we follow the same step as above like create routes.xml in /app/Advcha/HelloWorld/etc/frontend/ directory. But we change the id to ‘helloworld’.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:App/etc/routes.xsd">
    <router id="standard">
        <route id="helloworld" frontName="helloworld">
            <module name="Advcha_HelloWorld" />
        </route>
    </router>
</config>

<?xml version="1.0"?>

</route>

</router>

</config>

Then create controller file Index.php in /app/Advcha/HelloWorld/Controller/Index/ directory.

<?php 
namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Controller\Index;

class Index extends \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action
{
    protected $resultPageFactory;
    
    /**
        * Constructor
        * 
        * @param \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context  $context
        * @param \Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory $resultPageFactory
        */
    public function __construct(
        \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context $context,
        \Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory $resultPageFactory) 
    {
        $this->resultPageFactory = $resultPageFactory;
        parent::__construct($context);
    }

    /**
        * Execute view action
        * 
        * @return \Magento\Framework\Controller\ResultInterface
        */
    public function execute() {
        //echo 'Hello Advcha!';
        //exit;
        return $this->resultPageFactory->create();
    }

}

<?php

namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Controller\Index;

class Index extends \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action

{

protected $resultPageFactory;

/**

* Constructor

* @param \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context $context

* @param \Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory $resultPageFactory

public function __construct(

\Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context $context,

\Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory $resultPageFactory)

{

$this->resultPageFactory = $resultPageFactory;

parent::__construct($context);

}

/**

* Execute view action

* @return \Magento\Framework\Controller\ResultInterface

public function execute() {

//echo 'Hello Advcha!';

//exit;

return $this->resultPageFactory->create();

}

All controller must extend from \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action class which has dispatched method which will call execute method in action class. In this execute() method, we will write all of our controller logic and will return response for the request.
Then create layout file helloworld_index_index.xml in /app/Advcha/HelloWorld/view/frontend/layout/ directory. the layout filename has a pattern <router_name>_<controller_name>_<action_name>.xml. Therefore <router_name> is helloworld, <controller_name> is index and <action_name> is index (the classname). The Frontend layout always in /view/frontend/layout/ directory.

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<page layout="1column" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
    <body>
        <referenceContainer name="content">
            <block class="Advcha\HelloWorld\Block\Index\Index" name="index.index" template="Advcha_HelloWorld::index/index.phtml"/>
        </referenceContainer>
    </body>
</page>

<?xml version="1.0" ?>

<body>

</referenceContainer>

</body>

</page>

For the block “Advcha\HelloWorld\Block\Index\Index“, create a new file Index.php. The full path is in /app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/Block/Index/Index.php.

<?php
namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Block\Index;

class Index extends \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template{
    public function _prepareLayout() {
        return parent::_prepareLayout();
    }
}

<?php

namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Block\Index;

class Index extends \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template{

public function _prepareLayout() {

return parent::_prepareLayout();

}

For the template is “Advcha_HelloWorld::index/index.phtml“. The full path is in /app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/view/frontend/templates/index/index.phtml. The Frontend template always in /view/frontend/templates/ directory. Create a new file index.phtml and here is the content:

<h1>Welcome Advcha.</h1>

1	<h1>Welcome Advcha.</h1>

Okay. It’s time to test but first flush magento cache with command: php bin/magento cache:flush. Then open this url: http://magentoce215.dev/helloworld/index/index. IT SHOULD SHOW Welcome Advcha.
IF IT SHOW EMPTY PAGE, Please flush the magento cache or check again the id in routes.xml or make sure the ‘block’ is exist or modify ‘layout=”empty”‘ in helloworld_index_index.xml (ref: http://magento.stackexchange.com/questions/84370/magento-2-sample-module-displays-blank-page).
We can also inspect the elements with Magento DevTools.CRUD
ref: https://www.mageplaza.com/magento-2-module-development/how-to-create-crud-model-magento-2.html
Here I want to create a new table ‘advcha_post‘ with these following columns:
post_id – the post unique identifier
title – the title of the post
content – the content of the post
creation_time – the date created
To create a magento model, first setup a script in InstallSchema.php to create the table. Here is the full path: app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/Setup/InstallSchema.php. Here is the file content:
NOTE: I updated the content from the github link: https://github.com/mageplaza/magento-2-sample-module/blob/master/Setup/InstallSchema.php

<?php
namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Setup;

use \Magento\Framework\Setup\SchemaSetupInterface;
use \Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleContextInterface;
use \Magento\Framework\DB\Ddl\Table;
use \Magento\Framework\DB\Adapter\AdapterInterface;

class InstallSchema implements \Magento\Framework\Setup\InstallSchemaInterface{
    /**

        * @return void
        * @SuppressWarnings(PHPMD.ExcessiveMethodLength)
        */
    public function install(SchemaSetupInterface $setup, ModuleContextInterface $context)

Then run php bin/magento setup:upgrade
This should create a new table ‘advcha_helloworld_post‘ in your magento database. If it didn’t create it, please check ‘setup_module‘ table, then find ‘Advcha_HelloWorld’ record and remove it. Then run again php bin/magento setup:upgrade.
If you find this error

[Zend_Db_Exception]

1 2	[Zend_Db_Exception] There is no field "sample_upload_file" that you are trying to create an index on "advcha_helloworld_post"

This mean you haven’t define ‘sample_upload_file’ field in InstallSchema.php file above. Please look again the above file carefully or see the file from the github: https://github.com/mageplaza/magento-2-sample-module/blob/master/Setup/InstallSchema.php.
Create Model
First create an interface in PostInterface.php file in app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/Model/Api/Data/ directory.

<?php

namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\Api\Data;

interface PostInterface {
    public function getId();
    public function setId();
    
    public function getName();
    public function setName();
    
    public function getPostContent();
    public function setPostContent();
}

<?php

namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\Api\Data;

interface PostInterface {

public function getId();

public function setId();

public function getName();

public function setName();

public function getPostContent();

public function setPostContent();

}

This interface has defined the set and get method to table data which we would use when interacting with the model. This interface plays an important role when it comes time to exporting CRUD models to Magento service contracts based API.
Now create a model Post in app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/Model/Post.php.

<?php
namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Model;

use Magento\Framework\Model\AbstractModel;
use Magento\Framework\DataObject\IdentityInterface;
use Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\Api\Data\PostInterface;

class Post extends AbstractModel implements IdentityInterface,PostInterface {
    const CACHE_TAG = 'advcha_helloworld_post';

    protected $_cacheTag = 'advcha_helloworld_post';

    protected $_eventPrefix = 'advcha_helloworld_post';
    
    protected function __construct() {
        $this->_init('Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\ResourceModel\Post');
    }

    public function getIdentities(){
        return [self::CACHE_TAG . '_' . $this->getId()];
    }
    
    public function getDefaultValues(){
        $values = [];
        
        return $values;
    }
}

<?php

namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Model;

use Magento\Framework\Model\AbstractModel;

use Magento\Framework\DataObject\IdentityInterface;

use Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\Api\Data\PostInterface;

class Post extends AbstractModel implements IdentityInterface,PostInterface {

const CACHE_TAG = 'advcha_helloworld_post';

protected $_cacheTag = 'advcha_helloworld_post';

protected $_eventPrefix = 'advcha_helloworld_post';

protected function __construct() {

$this->_init('Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\ResourceModel\Post');

}

public function getIdentities(){

return [self::CACHE_TAG . '_' . $this->getId()];

}

public function getDefaultValues(){

$values = [];

return $values;

}

$_eventPrefix – a prefix for events to be triggered
$_eventObject – a object name when access in event
$_cacheTag – a unique identifier for use within caching
Create a Resource Model
the model file contain overall database logic, it do not execute sql queries. The resource model will do that. Now we will create the Resource Model for this table: Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\ResourceModel\Post.php.

<?php
namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\ResourceModel;

use Magento\Framework\Model\ResourceModel\Db\AbstractDb;
use Magento\Framework\Stdlib\DateTime\DateTime;

        */
    public function _construct(){
        $this->_init('advcha_helloworld_post', 'post_id');
    }
    /**
        * Retrieves Post Name from DB by passed id.
        *

                ->from($this->getMainTable(), 'name')
                ->where('post_id = :post_id');
        $binds = ['post_id' => (int)$id];
        return $adapter->fetchOne($select, $binds);
    }
    /**

        */
    protected function _beforeSave(AbstractModel $object) {
        $object->setUpdateAt($this->_date->date());
        if($object->isObjectNew()){
            $object->setCreatedAt($this->_date->date());
        }
        return parent::_beforeSave($object);
    }
}

<?php

namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\ResourceModel;

use Magento\Framework\Model\ResourceModel\Db\AbstractDb;

use Magento\Framework\Stdlib\DateTime\DateTime;

use Magento\Framework\Model\ResourceModel\Db\Context;

use Magento\Framework\Model\AbstractModel;

class Post extends AbstractDb {

return $adapter->fetchOne($select, $binds);

}

/**

protected function _beforeSave(AbstractModel $object) {

$object->setUpdateAt($this->_date->date());

if($object->isObjectNew()){

$object->setCreatedAt($this->_date->date());

}

return parent::_beforeSave($object);

}

Resource Model Collection – Get Model Collection
The collection model is considered a resource model which allow us to filter and fetch a collection table data. The collection model will be placed in: Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\ResourceModel\Post\Collection.php.

<?php
namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\ResourceModel\Post;

use Magento\Framework\Model\ResourceModel\Db\Collection\AbstractCollection;

class Collection extends AbstractCollection
{
    protected $_idFieldName = 'post_id';
    protected $_eventPrefix = 'advcha_helloworld_post_collection';
    protected $_eventObject = 'post_collection';

    /**
     * Define resource model
     *
     * @return void
     */
    protected function _construct()
    {
        $this->_init('Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\Post', 'Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\ResourceModel\Post');
    }

    /**
     * Get SQL for get record count.
     * Extra GROUP BY strip added.
     *
     * @return \Magento\Framework\DB\Select
     */
    public function getSelectCountSql()
    {
        $countSelect = parent::getSelectCountSql();
        $countSelect->reset(\Zend_Db_Select::GROUP);
        return $countSelect;
    }
    /**
     * @param string $valueField
     * @param string $labelField

     * @return array
     */
    protected function _toOptionArray($valueField = 'post_id', $labelField = 'name', $additional = [])
    {
        return parent::_toOptionArray($valueField, $labelField, $additional);
    }
}

<?php

namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\ResourceModel\Post;

use Magento\Framework\Model\ResourceModel\Db\Collection\AbstractCollection;

class Collection extends AbstractCollection

{

protected $_idFieldName = 'post_id';

protected $_eventPrefix = 'advcha_helloworld_post_collection';

protected $_eventObject = 'post_collection';

/**

* @return void

protected function _construct()

{

$this->_init('Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\Post', 'Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\ResourceModel\Post');

}

/**

public function getSelectCountSql()

protected function _toOptionArray($valueField = 'post_id', $labelField = 'name', $additional = [])

{

return parent::_toOptionArray($valueField, $labelField, $additional);

}

Factory Object and create Block Post
Create a Post block: Advcha\HelloWorld\Block\Post.php.

<?php
namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Block;

use Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template;
use Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template\Context;
use Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\PostFactory;

class Post extends Template
{
    protected $_postFactory;
    public function _construct(Context $context, PostFactory $postFactory){
        $this->_postFactory = $postFactory;
        parent::_construct($context);
    }

    public function _prepareLayout()
    {
        $post = $this->_postFactory->create();
        $collection = $post->getCollection();
        foreach($collection as $item){
                var_dump($item->getData());
        }
        exit;
    }
}

<?php

namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Block;

use Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template;

use Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template\Context;

use Advcha\HelloWorld\Model\PostFactory;

class Post extends Template

{

protected $_postFactory;

public function _construct(Context $context, PostFactory $postFactory){

$this->_postFactory = $postFactory;

parent::_construct($context);

}

public function _prepareLayout()

{

$post = $this->_postFactory->create();

$collection = $post->getCollection();

foreach($collection as $item){

var_dump($item->getData());

}

exit;

}

Then how to run this CRUD?

Create View: Block, Layouts, Templates
ref: https://www.mageplaza.com/magento-2-module-development/view-block-layout-template-magento-2.html
Here we want to create a module to show/display a text on the magento frontend.
A View will be use to output representation of the page. In Magento 2, View is built by three path: block, layout and template.
Call view in controller
In the previous Hello World Module topic, we have build a simple module and show the Hello World message on the screen directly by controller. Now we will edit it to call view to render page. File: app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/Controller/Index/Display.php.

<?php
namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Controller\Index;

use Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action;
use Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context;
use Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory;

class Display extends Action
{
    protected $_pageFactory;
    public function __construct(Context $context, PageFactory $pageFactory){
        $this->_pageFactory = $pageFactory;
        return parent::__construct($context);
    }
    
    public function execute(){
        //echo 'Hello World!';
        //exit;
        return $this->_pageFactory->create();
    }
}

<?php

namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Controller\Index;

use Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action;

use Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context;

use Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory;

class Display extends Action

{

protected $_pageFactory;

public function __construct(Context $context, PageFactory $pageFactory){

$this->_pageFactory = $pageFactory;

return parent::__construct($context);

}

public function execute(){

//echo 'Hello World!';

//exit;

return $this->_pageFactory->create();

}

Create layout file .xml
The Layout is the major path of view layer in Magento 2 module. The layout file is a XML file which will define the page structure and will be locate in {module_root}/view/{area}/layout/ directory. The Area path can be frontend or adminhtml which define where the layout will be applied.
There is a special layout file name default.xml which will be applied for all the page in it’s area. Otherwise, the layout file will have name as format: {router_id}_{controller_name}_{action_name}.xml. We can find the frontend {router_id} is helloworld in app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/etc/frontend/routes.xml. The {controller_name} is index and {action_name} is display (from Display.php where Action exist: Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action). We will create a layout handle file for this module: File: app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/view/frontend/layout/helloworld_index_display.xml.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" layout="1column" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
    <referenceContainer name="content">
        <block class="Advcha\HelloWorld\Block\Display" name="helloworld_display" template="Advcha_HelloWorld::sayhello.phtml" />
    </referenceContainer>
</page>

<?xml version="1.0"?>

</referenceContainer>

</page>

Block class: Advcha\HelloWorld\Block\Display, Template file: Advcha_HelloWorld::sayhello.phtml.
Create block
The Block file should contain all the view logic required, it should not contain any kind of html or css. Block file are supposed to have all application view logic. Create a file: app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/Block/Display.php.

<?php
namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Block;

use Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template;
use Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template\Context;

class Display extends Template {
    public function __construct(Context $context) {
        parent::__construct($context);
    }
    
    public function sayHello(){
        return __('Hello World, Advcha!');
    }
}

<?php

namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Block;

use Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template;

use Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template\Context;

class Display extends Template {

public function __construct(Context $context) {

parent::__construct($context);

}

public function sayHello(){

return __('Hello World, Advcha!');

}

Every block in Magento 2 must extend from Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template. In this block we will define a method sayHello() to show the word “Hello World, Advcha!”. We will use it in template file.
Create template file
Create a template file call sayhello.phtml: app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/view/frontend/templates/sayhello.phtml.

<?php
echo $block->sayHello();

1 2	<?php echo $block->sayHello();

In the layout file, we define the template by Advcha_HelloWorld::sayhello.phtml. It mean that Magento will find the file name sayhello.phtml in templates folder of module Advcha_HelloWorld. The template folder of the module is app/code/{vendor_name}/{module_name}/view/frontend/templates/.
In the template file, we can use the variable $block for the block object. As you see, we call the method sayHello() in Block. It’s done, please access to this page again (http://magentoce215.dev/helloworld/index/display) and see the result.If you find an error like this (put “ini_set(‘display_errors’, ‘1’);” in root index.php and /pub/index.php):

Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Argument 2 passed to Advcha\HelloWorld\Controller\Index\Display::__construct() must be an instance of Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory, none given, called in /home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215/var/generation/Advcha/HelloWorld/Controller/Index/Display/Interceptor.php on line 14 and defined in /home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215/app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/Controller/Index/Display.php on line 1

The Backend – system.xml Configuration
ref: https://www.mageplaza.com/magento-2-module-development/create-system-xml-configuration-magento-2.html
Create System.xml
In the admin page, the magento 2 system configuration page is divided logically in few parts: Tabs, Sections, Groups, Fields. So let’s start to create a simple configuration for the simple Module Hello World. The system.xml is located in etc/adminhtml directory of the module, we will create it a new Tab for our vendor “Advcha”, a new Section for our module Hello World, a Group to contain some simple fields: enable module and text. File: app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/etc/adminhtml/system.xml.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Config:etc/system_file.xsd">
    <system>

                </field>
            </group>
        </section>

</config>

</field>

</section>

</system>

</config>

Set default value
Each field in system.xml after create will not have any value. When you call them, you will receive ‘null’ result. So for the module, we will need to set the default value for the field and you will call the value without go to config, set value and save it. This default value will be saved in config.xml which is located in etc folder. Let’s create it for this simple configuration: File: app/code/Advcha/HelloWorld/etc/config.xml.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Store:etc/config.xsd">
    <default>
        <helloworld>
            <general>
                <enable>1</enable>
                <display_text>Hello World, Advcha!</display_text>
            </general>
        </helloworld>
    </default>
</config>

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<display_text>Hello World, Advcha!</display_text>

</general>

</helloworld>

</default>

</config>

You can put the path to the field in the <default> element to set value default for it. The format is:

<default>
    <section_id>
        <group_id>
            <field_id>{value}</field_id>
        </group_id>
    </section_id>
</default_id>

<section_id>

<group_id>

<field_id>{value}</field_id>

</group_id>

</section_id>

</default_id>

We need to flush the cache and see the result above.
Get value from configuration
First all of let’s save value and flush cache, then you can get saved value from database. In the system.xml, we have added 2 fields: enable and display_text. So the path should be: helloworld/general/enable and helloworld/general/display_text. We can call them through simple calling or use helper (recommended). Also please read for more samples: http://magento.stackexchange.com/questions/87789/magento2-how-to-get-data-from-system-configuration
Simple calling:

$this->scopeConfig->getValue('helloworld/general/enable', \Magento\Store\Model\ScopeInterface::SCOPE_STORE);
$this->scopeConfig->getValue('helloworld/general/display_text', \Magento\Store\Model\ScopeInterface::SCOPE_STORE);

1 2	$this->scopeConfig->getValue('helloworld/general/enable', \Magento\Store\Model\ScopeInterface::SCOPE_STORE); $this->scopeConfig->getValue('helloworld/general/display_text', \Magento\Store\Model\ScopeInterface::SCOPE_STORE);

Create a helper file (standard)
Create file: Advcha/HelloWorld/Helper/Data.php.

<?php

namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Helper;

use Magento\Framework\App\Helper\AbstractHelper;
use Magento\Store\Model\StoreManagerInterface;
use Magento\Framework\ObjectManagerInterface;
use Magento\Framework\App\Helper\Context;
use Magento\Store\Model\ScopeInterface;

class Data extends AbstractHelper
{
    protected $storeManager;
    protected $objectManager;

    const XML_PATH_HELLOWORLD = 'helloworld/';

    public function __construct(Context $context,
        ObjectManagerInterface $objectManager,
        StoreManagerInterface $storeManager
    ) {
        $this->objectManager = $objectManager;
        $this->storeManager  = $storeManager;
        parent::__construct($context);
    }

    public function getConfigValue($field, $storeId = null)
    {
        return $this->scopeConfig->getValue(
            $field, ScopeInterface::SCOPE_STORE, $storeId
        );
    }

    public function getGeneralConfig($code, $storeId = null)
    {
        return $this->getConfigValue(self::XML_PATH_HELLOWORLD . $code, $storeId);
    }
}

<?php

namespace Advcha\HelloWorld\Helper;

use Magento\Framework\App\Helper\AbstractHelper;

use Magento\Store\Model\StoreManagerInterface;

use Magento\Framework\ObjectManagerInterface;

use Magento\Framework\App\Helper\Context;

use Magento\Store\Model\ScopeInterface;

class Data extends AbstractHelper

{

protected $storeManager;

protected $objectManager;

const XML_PATH_HELLOWORLD = 'helloworld/';

public function __construct(Context $context,

ObjectManagerInterface $objectManager,

StoreManagerInterface $storeManager

) {

$this->objectManager = $objectManager;

$this->storeManager = $storeManager;

parent::__construct($context);

}

public function getConfigValue($field, $storeId = null)

{

return $this->scopeConfig->getValue(

$field, ScopeInterface::SCOPE_STORE, $storeId

);

}

public function getGeneralConfig($code, $storeId = null)

{

return $this->getConfigValue(self::XML_PATH_HELLOWORLD . $code, $storeId);

}

Now we can get those value and call the helper from .phtml file like this:

$helper = $this->objectManager->create('Advcha\HelloWorld\Helper\Data');
echo $helper->getGeneralConfig('enable');
echo $helper->getGeneralConfig('display_text');

$helper = $this->objectManager->create('Advcha\HelloWorld\Helper\Data');

echo $helper->getGeneralConfig('enable');

echo $helper->getGeneralConfig('display_text');

Magento CE 2.1.5 (With Sample Data) Installation

I want to install Magento CE 2.1.5 (with sample data) in my machine Ubuntu 14.04 and PHP 7.0.
Ref: http://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.1/install-gde/prereq/zip_install.html

Download the installation file from magento website. Here I downloaded the file with sample data in tar.bz2 format
Extract the compressed file into your web root. I extract them in ‘magentoce215’ directory.
Modify the files permission of ‘magentoce215’ directory. Here I used this command to make it easier for me to deal with the many security issues.

teddy@teddy-K43SJ:~$ sudo chmod -R 777 Documents/works/magentoce215/

1

teddy@teddy-K43SJ:~$ sudo chmod -R 777 Documents/works/magentoce215/
Open it the first time on your browser: http://localhost/works/magentoce215. It’d setup magento for the first time.Click ‘Agree and Setup Magento’ button. It’d bring us to next step, the check install page. Here is the looksI want to make sure anything would be okay so I click ‘Start Readiness Check’ button. It’d check my php version and the php extension I have. It seemed I miss some extensions. Here is the result.I need to sort its out first. Install the missing php extensions.

teddy@teddy-K43SJ:~$ sudo apt-get install php7.0-curl php7.0-mcrypt php7.0-intl php7.0-zip php7.0-gd

1

teddy@teddy-K43SJ:~$ sudo apt-get install php7.0-curl php7.0-mcrypt php7.0-intl php7.0-zip php7.0-gd

Then don’t forget to restart apache server

teddy@teddy-K43SJ:~$ sudo service apache2 restart

1

teddy@teddy-K43SJ:~$ sudo service apache2 restart

Back to the browser then click ‘Try Again’ button at the top of the page. If everything okay, I’ll get this page.Then click ‘Next’ button. It’d bring you to the database setting page. That is my database setting. I already created a new database ‘magentoce215’ (utf8-general-ci) via phpmyadmin. Make sure the setting is correct! Then click ‘Next’ button. Oops! I have MySQL Server 5.5.54 that not supported by magento ce 2.1.5. It recommended to use MySQL 5.6.0 or later!SO I NEED TO UPGRADE THE MYSQL VERSION TO MYSQL 5.6.0 OR LATER? OK. I upgraded my MySQL server to 5.7 version. Now everything is fine. Then I got this screen about my local magento web configuration.magento url: http://localhost/works/magentoce215/
magento admin url: http://localhost/works/magentoce215/admin_dgj2ff
Then click ‘Next’. Then I modify my store setting like this:I checked ‘Select All’ for ‘Advanced Modules Configuration’ because I want to use the samples data. Then click ‘Next’. Then fill out the admin form.SORRY, ONLY ADMIN CAN SHOW THIS!
Then click ‘Next’. This is the last page to install magento.Click ‘Install Now’ button. Wait until installation completed and you get the success page.SORRY, ONLY ADMIN CAN SHOW THIS!
It’s recommended for security, remove write permissions from these directories: ‘/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215/app/etc’.
When ‘Launch Magento Admin’ button is clicked, it’d go to the admin page (http://localhost/works/magentoce215/admin_dgj2ff).Use your correct username and password to sign in. Here is the main admin page.Somehow I got an error like this:“One or more indexers are invalid. Make sure your Magento cron job is running.”. I think no need to worry right now.
Here is the main page (http://localhost/works/magentoce215/) looks:

Use VirtualHost
I prefer to use virtualhost so I can open this magento with more pleasing url like http://magentoce215.dev. Here is the step:
Create an apache file configuration:

sudo gedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/magentoce215.dev.conf

1	sudo gedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/magentoce215.dev.conf

Here is the file content:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName magentoce215.dev
    ServerAlias www.magentoce215.dev
    DocumentRoot "/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215"
    DirectoryIndex index.php
    <Directory "/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215">
        AllowOverride All
        Allow from All
        Require all granted
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

ServerName magentoce215.dev

ServerAlias www.magentoce215.dev

DocumentRoot "/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215"

DirectoryIndex index.php

AllowOverride All

Allow from All

Require all granted

</Directory>

</VirtualHost>

Enable the site:

sudo a2ensite magentoce215.dev

1	sudo a2ensite magentoce215.dev

Put the url in hosts file

sudo gedit /etc/hosts

1	sudo gedit /etc/hosts

Here is the line:

127.0.0.1	magentoce215.dev

1	127.0.0.1 magentoce215.dev

Restart apache server

sudo service apache2 restart

1	sudo service apache2 restart

We need to clean and flush the cache and build and deploy the static files:

teddy@teddy-K43SJ:~/Documents/works/magentoce215$ sudo su -s /bin/bash www-data
www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento cache:clean
www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento cache:flush
www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento setup:upgrade && php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

teddy@teddy-K43SJ:~/Documents/works/magentoce215$ sudo su -s /bin/bash www-data

www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento cache:clean

www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento cache:flush

www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento setup:upgrade && php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

Test it on your browser: http://magentoce215.dev
If there is no change on the url and still use the url: http://localhost/works/magentoce215, we need to update ‘base-url’ and ‘base-url-secure’ (ref: http://blog.netgloo.com/2016/05/13/magento-2-change-base-url-using-the-command-line/) like this:

www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento setup:store-config:set --base-url="http://magentoce215.dev/"
www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento setup:store-config:set --base-url-secure="https://magentoce215.dev/"
www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento cache:flush

www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento setup:store-config:set --base-url="http://magentoce215.dev/"

www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento setup:store-config:set --base-url-secure="https://magentoce215.dev/"

www-data@teddy-K43SJ:/home/teddy/Documents/works/magentoce215$ php bin/magento cache:flush

Test it again on your browser: http://magentoce215.dev and the admin url is http://magentoce215.dev/admin_dgj2ff

The looks are different with the version 1.X. Please read https://www.atwix.com/magento-2/magento-1-vs-magento-2/, https://www.shopping-cart-migration.com/blog/42-magento/43708-the-key-differences-between-magento-1x-and-20, https://www.apptha.com/blog/magento-1-vs-magento-2-for-building-multi-vendor-marketplace/, etc.
