If you want to know how to use it as replacement for [Drush Make](https://github.com/drush-ops/drush/blob/8.x/docs/make.md) visit the [Documentation on drupal.org](https://www.drupal.org/node/2471553). Usage ----- [](#usage) First you need to [install composer](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md#installation-linux-unix-osx). > Note: The instructions below refer to the [global composer installation](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md#globally). You might need to replace `composer` with `php composer.phar` (or similar) for your setup. After that you can create the project: ``` composer create-project merlin-tribukait/drupal-project:8.x-dev DIR-NAME --no-interaction ``` Install the project with: ``` composer install ``` > Note: The project automaticly creates a docksal-local.env file and fill this with .docksal as the Virtual Host. Run the Docksal containers: ``` fin init ``` Install the Drupal Site: ``` fin init-site ``` ``` > Note: The Drupal Administator account will be set automaticly to admin:admin, remember to change it before the site goes into production. The Site will be installed with the minimal profile. Following modules are enabled by default : Admin Toolbar, Admin Toolbar Tools, Adminimal Admin Toolbar and Module Filter. A Basic Landingpage Content Type will be automaticaly provided including a set of media settings. With `composer require ...` you can download new dependencies to your installation. ``` cd some-dir composer require drupal/devel:~1.0 ``` The `composer create-project` command passes ownership of all files to the project that is created. You should create a new git repository, and commit all files not excluded by the .gitignore file. ## What does the template do? When installing the given `composer.json` some tasks are taken care of: * Drupal will be installed in the `web`-directory. * Autoloader is implemented to use the generated composer autoloader in `vendor/autoload.php`, instead of the one provided by Drupal (`web/vendor/autoload.php`). * Modules (packages of type `drupal-module`) will be placed in `web/modules/contrib/` * Theme (packages of type `drupal-theme`) will be placed in `web/themes/contrib/` * Profiles (packages of type `drupal-profile`) will be placed in `web/profiles/contrib/` * Creates default writable versions of `settings.php` and `services.yml`. * Creates `web/sites/default/files`-directory. * Latest version of drush is installed locally for use at `vendor/bin/drush`. * Latest version of DrupalConsole is installed locally for use at `vendor/bin/drupal`. * Creates environment variables based on your .env file. See [.env.example](.env.example). ## Updating Drupal Core This project will attempt to keep all of your Drupal Core files up-to-date; the project [drupal-composer/drupal-scaffold](https://github.com/drupal-composer/drupal-scaffold) is used to ensure that your scaffold files are updated every time drupal/core is updated. If you customize any of the "scaffolding" files (commonly .htaccess), you may need to merge conflicts if any of your modified files are updated in a new release of Drupal core. Follow the steps below to update your core files. 1. Run `composer update drupal/core webflo/drupal-core-require-dev symfony/* --with-dependencies` to update Drupal Core and its dependencies. 1. Run `git diff` to determine if any of the scaffolding files have changed. Review the files for any changes and restore any customizations to `.htaccess` or `robots.txt`. 1. Commit everything all together in a single commit, so `web` will remain in sync with the `core` when checking out branches or running `git bisect`. 1. In the event that there are non-trivial conflicts in step 2, you may wish to perform these steps on a branch, and use `git merge` to combine the updated core files with your customized files. This facilitates the use of a [three-way merge tool such as kdiff3](http://www.gitshah.com/2010/12/how-to-setup-kdiff-as-diff-tool-for-git.html). This setup is not necessary if your changes are simple; keeping all of your modifications at the beginning or end of the file is a good strategy to keep merges easy. ## Generate composer.json from existing project With using [the "Composer Generate" drush extension](https://www.drupal.org/project/composer_generate) you can now generate a basic `composer.json` file from an existing project. Note that the generated `composer.json` might differ from this project's file. ## FAQ ### Should I commit the contrib modules I download? Composer recommends **no**. They provide [argumentation against but also workrounds if a project decides to do it anyway](https://getcomposer.org/doc/faqs/should-i-commit-the-dependencies-in-my-vendor-directory.md). ### Should I commit the scaffolding files? The [drupal-scaffold](https://github.com/drupal-composer/drupal-scaffold) plugin can download the scaffold files (like index.php, update.php, …) to the web/ directory of your project. If you have not customized those files you could choose to not check them into your version control system (e.g. git). If that is the case for your project it might be convenient to automatically run the drupal-scaffold plugin after every install or update of your project. You can achieve that by registering `@drupal-scaffold` as post-install and post-update command in your composer.json: ```json "scripts": { "drupal-scaffold": "DrupalComposer\\DrupalScaffold\\Plugin::scaffold", "post-install-cmd": [ "@drupal-scaffold", "..." ], "post-update-cmd": [ "@drupal-scaffold", "..." ] }, ``` ### How can I apply patches to downloaded modules? [](#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](https://github.com/cweagans/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 or local path to patch" } } } ``` ### How do I switch from packagist.drupal-composer.org to packages.drupal.org? [](#how-do-i-switch-from-packagistdrupal-composerorg-to-packagesdrupalorg) Follow the instructions in the [documentation on drupal.org](https://www.drupal.org/docs/develop/using-composer/using-packagesdrupalorg). ### How do I specify a PHP version ? [](#how-do-i-specify-a-php-version-) Currently Drupal 8 supports PHP 5.5.9 as minimum version (see [Drupal 8 PHP requirements](https://www.drupal.org/docs/8/system-requirements/drupal-8-php-requirements)), however it's possible that a `composer update` will upgrade some package that will then require PHP 7+. To prevent this you can add this code to specify the PHP version you want to use in the `config` section of `composer.json`: ``` "config": { "sort-packages": true, "platform": {"php": "5.5.9"} }, ``` ### Health Score 27 — LowBetter than 49% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity10 Limited adoption so far Community20 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity53 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 65.6% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
