This is a composer based installer for the [Open Social distribution](https://www.drupal.org/project/social).

Prerequisites
=============

[](#prerequisites)

1. [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/download/)

It's just composer, isn't it awesome? :)

Installation of Open Social
---------------------------

[](#installation-of-open-social)

```
composer create-project goalgorilla/social_template:dev-master DIRECTORY --no-interaction

```

Composer will create a new directory called DIRECTORY. The installed folders will contain all Drupal related files in the `html`directory and any third-party dependencies in the composer `vendor` directory. Drupal core will be installed to `html/core`. Inside you will find the html directory with the entire code base of the [Open Social distribution](https://www.drupal.org/project/social). Install your Open Social site like any other Drupal website using the `install.php` script or `drush`.
