Digital Polygon Drupal Recommended Project
==========================================

[](#digital-polygon-drupal-recommended-project)

This is an opinionated project template for new Drupal 9 projects. It is based on the [Drupal Recommended Project](https://github.com/drupal/recommended-project/tree/9.3.x), with the principal difference being the addition of several modules and themes.

It includes
-----------

[](#it-includes)

- Drupal Core
- [Drush](https://github.com/drush-ops/drush) (Drupal CLI and development tool)
- [DDev](https://ddev.readthedocs.io/)
- [Asset Packagist](https://asset-packagist.org/) repository, package, and configuration
- [GrumPHP](https://phpqa.io/projects/grumphp.html)

Installation and usage
----------------------

[](#installation-and-usage)

Create a new project using composer

```
composer create-project --no-interaction digitalpolygon/drupal-recommended-project

```

After creating the project, it can be completely customized to suite your requirements. You should never update the project template.

Local Setup
-----------

[](#local-setup)

Once you have the project dependencies setup on your local environment, you should be able to setup your local environment with the sites.

1. Create a composer project using

```
composer create-project --no-interaction digitalpolygon/drupal-recommended-project

```

2. Configure git by executing
    - git config user.email ""
    - git config user.name "Your Name"
3. Move into the project folder - `cd drupal-recommended-project`
4. If you are using `Macbook M1` please proceed to [Configuring Project for Apple M](#configuring-project-for-apple-m1)
5. Run `ddev setup` to build your project locally
6. Your [local](https://drupal-recommended-project.ddev.site/) site should be up and running

### Configuring Project for Apple M1

[](#configuring-project-for-apple-m1)

#### 1. Update `.ddev/docker-compose.local.yaml`

[](#1-update-ddevdocker-composelocalyaml)

Create the file if it doesn't already exist. Update it so that the `web` service has property `platform: linux/x86_64`. Example: adfdsaf

```
services:
  web:
    platform: linux/x86_64
```

#### 2. Update `.ddev/config.local.yaml`

[](#2-update-ddevconfiglocalyaml)

Create the file if it doesn't already exist. Update it so `mutagen_enabled: true` is set.

### Useful ddev commands

[](#useful-ddev-commands)

1. `ddev setup` - Use this command to setup the project from scratch.
2. `ddev refresh` - Use this command to sync your local with dev environment.
3. `ddev xdebug on` - Use this command to enable xdebug.
4. `ddev frontend` - Builds frontend dependencies.

Frontend Theme
--------------

[](#frontend-theme)

Please add your FE build commands in `build.sh` script available in `scripts` directory.

Pantheon Integration
--------------------

[](#pantheon-integration)

- To integrate with pantheon please include [digitalpolygon/drupal-pantheon-integration](https://github.com/digitalpolygon/drupal-pantheon-integration) composer package.

```
composer require digitalpolygon/drupal-pantheon-integration

```

- Update `provider.yml` to use pantheon as a provider
- Update `refresh` command to use `pantheon` as provider
