Warden Env for Magento 2
One-click .env for Warden, matched to the Adobe-tested runtime matrix.
What Warden Env for Magento 2 does
- ✓ Service matrix pre-filled for each Magento version — PHP, MySQL, Elasticsearch/OpenSearch, Redis all pinned to Adobe's tested combinations
- ✓ Override any service version individually — swap Elasticsearch for OpenSearch, pick a specific PHP patch release
- ✓ Toggles for Valkey (Redis-compatible), Varnish, MailHog, phpMyAdmin, and RabbitMQ
- ✓ Magepack pre-configuration — toggle on, we emit the right env vars
- ✓ Outputs match the exact shape Warden expects — no manual tweaks needed
- ✓ Download or copy — drop the .env at your project root, run warden env up
How it works
Pick your Magento version
2.3.x through the latest 2.4.x patch. Defaults snap to Adobe's runtime matrix for that version.
Tune services if needed
Override any individual service version or toggle optional components (Varnish, MailHog, Magepack) from the right-hand panel.
Drop in + spin up
Copy the .env to your project root, then warden env-init && warden env up. You're running Magento in Docker.
Frequently asked about Warden Env for Magento 2
Which Magento versions are supported? +
2.3.x through the latest 2.4.x patch releases. Updated when Adobe ships a new version or changes the tested runtime.
What if I need a version that's not in the dropdown? +
The matrix pins to Adobe's official support list. Versions outside that need manual tweaks; drop us a note and we'll add common cases.
Does it support OpenSearch instead of Elasticsearch? +
Yes — there's a toggle in the services panel. Adobe Commerce 2.4.6+ supports OpenSearch 2.x natively.
Can I use the output without Warden? +
The .env is Warden-specific, but the service-version table doubles as a reference for any Docker Compose setup you're building yourself.
What about Magepack for JS bundling? +
Toggle it on — we emit MAGEPACK=1 and add the required container. You'll still need to configure bundling rules in your module.
Is Valkey fully compatible with Redis? +
For Magento's session and cache use, yes — Valkey is a Redis-protocol fork. Magento's setup:install still uses --session-save=redis either way.
