System Maintenance & Diagnostics

GeniXCMS provides a centralized hub for monitoring your server environment and managing updates for the core system, modules, and themes. Access these tools via System in the administrative sidebar.

---

1. System Health

The System Health page performing real-time diagnostics on your server environment to ensure it meets the GeniXCMS operational requirements.

Key Diagnostics:

• PHP Version: Ensures your environment is running on PHP 8.2 or higher.
• Critical Extensions: Verifies the presence of PDO, GD, ZipArchive, cURL, and OpenSSL.
• Server Configuration: Checks for file_uploads capability, post_max_size, and max_execution_time.

Extending Diagnostics

Developers can inject custom requirements via the system_health_requirements filter hook.

Example usage in a module:

Hooks::add('system_health_requirements', function($req) {
    $req['Exif Extension'] = [
        'req' => 'Enabled',
        'val' => extension_loaded('exif') ? 'Enabled' : 'Disabled',
        'status' => extension_loaded('exif')
    ];
    return $req;
});

2. System Update Repository

The Updates page centralizes version management for your entire ecosystem by communicating with the GeniXCMS Marketplace API.

Core Updates

GeniXCMS automatically checks for core updates in real-time. If a new version is available, a "Download Update" button will appear, providing a direct link to the latest stable release.

Module & Theme Updates

The system performs a Batch Check for every installed module and theme.

• Up-to-Date: Indicates your component matches the stable version in the cloud.
• New Version Available: Triggers if a developer has released a newer version on the marketplace.

Manual Sync

You can force a fresh version check by clicking the Manual Sync button at any time.

Extending Update Logic

You can manipulate or append update data using the following filter hooks:

• system_updates_modules
• system_updates_themes

Example:

Hooks::add('system_updates_modules', function($modUpdates) {
    // Custom logic to modify the update list
    return $modUpdates;
});
