FIRE is a standardized set of commands to run local [Drupal](https://www.drupal.org/) environments, regardless of which Docker wrapper you use ([Lando](https://lando.dev/) or [DDEV](https://ddev.com/)), and regardless of where the live site is hosted ([Pantheon](https://pantheon.io/) or [Acquia](https://www.acquia.com/solutions/drupal-hosting)). This means that every site that you work on will use the *same* commands for things like getting a fresh database (`fire get-db`). This makes it quicker and easier to get new people working on any of your sites. Install ======= [](#install) 1. Install the FIRE Launcher on your computer (Recommended but optional) 2. Install the commands package into your project `composer require fourkitchens/fire --dev` 3. Create your `fire.yml` config file for the project `fire init` 4. Edit `fire.yml` and adjust the configuration. 5. Check if fire is working If you have installed the FIRE Launcher: ``` fire ``` otherwise: ``` ./vendor/bin/fire ``` It should show you all the available FIRE commands. 6. Edit your project's README.md file and point to our [Project Documentation](./ProjectREADME.md) If your project has other requirements to run FIRE commands (e.g. does your project also require Node and NVM?), then be sure to also list those in your project's README.md. Usage ===== [](#usage) **With FIRE laucher installed:** Example: ``` fire build ``` **Without the FIRE launcher installed:** Example: ``` ./vendor/bin/fire build ``` Available commands: ------------------- [](#available-commands) - `init`: Triggers a wizard that help you initialize the fire.yml file. alias: `i` - `env:start`: Starts the local Docker based env (lando, ddev). alias: `start` - `env:stop`: Stops the local Docker based env (lando, ddev). alias: `stop` - `env:poweroff`: Stops the local Docker and the proxy based env (lando, ddev). alias: `poweroff` - `env:switch`: A project can have both environments configured: Lando and DDev, so the "switch" command helps you to "hot swap" between local dev environments (Lando or DDev). alias: `env-switch|switch|sw` - `local:build`: Builds your Drupal Site from the scratch.

Passing Arguments wrapped commands (i.e drush) ---------------------------------------------- [](#passing-arguments-wrapped-commands-ie-drush) When using Fire to run a wrapped command like Drush, you can indeed pass arguments by using a double hyphen (--). This signals that all subsequent parameters should be treated as arguments for the wrapped command. Here's how you can structure it: `fire drush cex -- -y` Dev backgroud ------------- [](#dev-backgroud) We are using [Robo](https://robo.li/) as Framework to develop this tool. - Commmands examples: - Robo as Framework Documentation: ### Health Score 54 — FairBetter than 97% of packages Maintenance90 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity27 Limited adoption so far Community19 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity69 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 62.2% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
