Drupal Go

It's a starting point for a new Drupal 8 project. Drupal Go will automatically prepare a local development environment and install Drupal project using best practices. Also, it supplies a number of useful tools/commands/aliases you can work with.

The Drupal Go based on Composer template for Drupal project, Robo and docker4drupal.

What does it do?

• Prepare the development environment based on docker4drupal
• Prepare the project folder structure based on best practices form Composer template for Drupal project.
• Automatically installs a drupal Project based on custom configurations.
• Provides useful tools and commands.
• Generates drush aliases and applies correct adjustments for drush configurations.

Requirements

• Install Docker
• Install Docker Compose

Installation

1. To avoid incompatibilities please make sure that your port 80 is available and all other docker environments on your local machine are stopped. Or run docker container stop $(docker ps -aq)
2. In your project root directory (www for example) run git clone git@github.com:nortmas/drupal-go.git <project-machine-name> && cd <project-machine-name> && rm -r .git. (NOTE: For the sake of consistency, name your project directory as a project machine name.)
3. If it's your first project with Drupal GO, for the convenience you may set the aliases (highly recommended):
   • mkdir ~/.dgo && cp $(pwd)/go/scripts/aliases.sh ~/.dgo/aliases.sh
   • Now add this line source ~/.dgo/aliases.sh to your bashrc or bash_profile or zshrc file.
   • Restart your cli. To restart zsh: exec zsh, to restart bash: exec bash -l.
4. Check the latest tags for the docker images in the docker4drupal.
5. Set the configurations and choose the modules you want to install in the file GoConfig.php.
6. Run make go_lin OR make go_mac, depends on what OS are you using.
7. Run next commands one by one:
   • make go_prepare_env
   • make go_drupal_install
8. Add lines to the composer.json in the drupal-scaffold/file-mapping section:
   • "[web-root]/robots.txt": false
   • "[web-root]/.htaccess": false
   • "[project-root]/.editorconfig": false
9. Go to the /admin/reports/status page and check errors. Perhaps you need to install some missing libraries.

Ongoing project installation

• Get into the project directory: cd <project-machine-name>
• Do the steps 1,3,6 from the Installation section above.
• Run the environment: make go_up.
• Install the dependencies: goc install.
• Import database dump: gor dbi if you have a dump file ./db/default_[date].sql.gz.
• Implement general rebuild: gor rebuild.

Credentials and environment information

• URL: https://<project_machine_name>.docker.localhost
• User: admin
• Password: GoIn2house!

How to extend?

• If you need specific settings for your local environment, use the docker-compose.override.yml file.
• You can use Makefile and RoboFile.php to extend workflow with the project specific commands.

Aliases

• god - Run drush in the php container.
• godr - Run drupal in the php container.
• gor - Run robo in the php container.
• goс - Run composer in the php container.

Understanding Go configurations

• project_name - Will be used for the drupal site name and composer.json project name.
• project_machine_name - Will be used for different needs to unify some configurations also will be used as a url prefix.
• multisite - You can specify the array of needed domains to create the folder structure automatically.
• deploy - Configure GitLab CI files and deployment flow.
• server - Configure remote server that will contain dev, stage and master (prod) environments.
• behat - Used for Behat configuration files.
• admin_theme - Determinate what contrib admin theme to enable.
• modules - Determinate what contrib modules to enable.
• submodules_to_enable - Determinate what submodules to enable.
• All other configurations are related to the docker4drupal

FYI: If you set memcached to be enabled, it will also enable memcache drupal module and implement appropriate configurations.

Available make commands:

• make go_prepare_env - Roll out the environment.
• make go_drupal_install - Install Drupal.

• make go_run_behat - Run behat tests.
• make go_drupal_update - Update Drupal core with dependencies.
• make go_update_translations - Update Drupal translations.

• robo db_import, alias dbi. Implement an import of latest DB dump from the DB folder. filename argument is optional to restore the particular dump.
• robo get_db, alias gdb. Import DB from the specified environment. It requires argument alias (dev,stage or prod)
• robo get_files, alias gf. Import files from the specified environment. It requires argument alias (dev,stage or prod)

• robo set_correct_file_permissions, alias scfp. Set correct file permissions according to the official documentation recommendations.
• robo set_settings_writable, alias ssw. Set writable permissions for settings files.

How can I apply patches to downloaded modules?

If you need to apply patches (depending on the project being modified, a pull request is often a better solution), you can do so with the composer-patches plugin.

To add a patch to drupal module foobar insert the patches section in the extra section of composer.json:

"extra": {
    "patches": {
        "drupal/foobar": {
            "Patch description": "URL to patch"
        }
    }
}
