This relative path works for any Drupal codebase on your system if you run commands from the project root. And it is harmless otherwise. Other options include [direnv](https://direnv.net/), [fd](https://github.com/g1a/fd), or the scripts [in this issue](https://github.com/drush-ops/drush-launcher/issues/105). Description ----------- [](#description) In order to avoid dependency issues, it is best to require Drush on a per-project basis via Composer (`composer require drush/drush`). This makes Drush available to your project by placing it at `vendor/bin/drush`. However, it is inconvenient to type `vendor/bin/drush` in order to execute Drush commands. By installing the drush launcher globally on your local machine, you can simply type `drush` on the command line, and the launcher will find and execute the project specific version of drush located in your project's `vendor` directory. Installation - Phar ------------------- [](#installation---phar) 1. Download latest stable release via CLI (code below) or browse to . OSX: ``` curl -OL https://github.com/drush-ops/drush-launcher/releases/latest/download/drush.phar ``` Linux: ``` wget -O drush.phar https://github.com/drush-ops/drush-launcher/releases/latest/download/drush.phar ``` 2. Make downloaded file executable: `chmod +x drush.phar` 3. Move drush.phar to a location listed in your `$PATH`, rename to `drush`: ``` sudo mv drush.phar /usr/local/bin/drush ``` 4. Windows users: create a drush.bat file in the same folder as drush.phar with the following lines. This gets around the problem where Windows does not know that the `drush` file is associated with `php`: ``` @echo off php "%~dp0\drush" %* ``` Update ------ [](#update) The Drush Launcher Phar is able to self update to the latest release. ``` drush self-update ``` Fallback -------- [](#fallback) When a site-local Drush is not found, this launcher usually throws a helpful error. You may avoid the error and instead hand off execution to a global Drush (any version) by exporting an environment variable. `export DRUSH_LAUNCHER_FALLBACK=/path/to/drush` Xdebug compatibility -------------------- [](#xdebug-compatibility) Drush Launcher, like Composer automatically disables Xdebug by default. This improves performance substantially. You may override this feature by setting an environment variable. `DRUSH_ALLOW_XDEBUG=1 drush [command]` License ------- [](#license) GPL-2.0+ ### Health Score 38 — LowBetter than 83% of packages Maintenance18 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity37 Limited adoption so far Community22 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity65 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 60.2% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
