Apply patches using Magento Quality Patches Tool (MQP)

The Magento Quality Package (MQP) package delivers individual patches developed by Magento and allows you to apply, revert, and view general information about all individual patches that are available for the installed version of Magento Commerce or Magento Open Source. See the Apply Patches topic in the Cloud Guide for details on installing and using MQP for Magento Commerce Cloud.

We do not recommend using the MQP package to apply large numbers of patches because it increases the complexity of your code, which makes upgrading to a new version of Magento more difficult.

Install the MQP package

If it is not already installed, you must install Git or Patch before installing the MQP package. Add the magento/quality-patches Composer package to your composer.json file:

composer require magento/quality-patches

View individual patches

To view the list of individual patches available for your version of Magento:

./vendor/bin/magento-patches status

You will see output similar to the following:

╚════════════════╧═════════════════════════════════════════════════╧══════════╧═════════════╧═════════════════════════════════╝
Magento 2 Enterprise Edition, version 2.3.5.0

The status table contains the following types of information:

Type:
- Optional—All patches from the MQP package and the Magento Cloud Patches package are optional for Magento Commerce and Magento Open Source installations.
- Deprecated—Magento has deprecated the individual patch. If you have applied the patch, we recommend that you revert it. The revert operation also removes the patch from the status table.
Status:
- Applied—The patch has been applied.
- Not applied—The patch has not been applied.
- N/A—The status of the patch cannot be defined due to conflicts.
Details:
- Affected components—The list of affected Magento modules.
- Required patches—The list of patches that must be applied for an indicated patch to work properly (dependencies).
- Recommended replacement—The patch that is a recommended replacement for a deprecated patch.

After upgrading to a new version of Magento, you must re-apply patches if the patches are not included in the new version. See Re-apply patches after an upgrade.

Apply individual patches

We strongly recommend testing all patches in a staging or development environment before deploying to production. We also strongly recommend backing up your data before applying a patch. See [Back up and roll back the file system][].

To apply a single patch, run the following command where MAGETWO-XXXX is the patch ID specified in the status table:

./vendor/bin/magento-patches apply MAGETWO-XXXX

Also, you can apply several patches at the same time by separating each additional patch ID with a space:

./vendor/bin/magento-patches apply MAGETWO-XXXX MAGETWO-YYYY

You must clean the cache after applying patches to see changes in the Magento application:

./bin/magento cache:clean

Consider keeping a list of applied patches in a separate location. You might need to re-apply some of them after upgrading to a new version of Magento. See Re-apply patches after an upgrade.

Revert individual patches

To revert a single patch, run the following command where MAGETWO-XXXX is the patch ID specified in the status table:

./vendor/bin/magento-patches revert MAGETWO-XXXX

Also, you can revert several patches at the same time by separating each additional patch ID with a space:

./vendor/bin/magento-patches revert MAGETWO-XXXX MAGETWO-YYYY

To revert all applied patches:

./vendor/bin/magento-patches revert --all

You must clean the cache after reverting patches to see changes in the Magento application:

./bin/magento cache:clean

Get updates

Magento periodically releases new individual patches. You must update the MQP package to get new individual patches:

composer update magento/quality-patches

View the added patches:

New add patches display at the bottom of the table.

./vendor/bin/magento-patches status

Re-apply patches after an upgrade

When you upgrade to a new version of Magento, you must re-apply patches if the patches are not included in the new version.

To re-apply patches:

Update the MQP package:

composer update magento/quality-patches.

Open the list of previously applied patches, which was recommended in Apply individual patches.

Apply the patches:

./vendor/bin/magento-patches apply MAGETWO-XXXX

The best practice is to apply patches one at a time.

Clean the cache:
```
1
./bin/magento cache:clean
```
When you run the status command, the patches that where included in the new version are no longer displayed in the table of available patches.

Logging

The MQP package logs all operations in the <Magento_root>/var/log/patch.log file.
