Creating a brand new occasion of an current website Adam Balsam Tue, 10/03/2017 – 09 Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service43 All through Drupal Developer development and support lifecycle of a website, it’s usually essential to put in a recent model of your software in a brand new surroundings with all of Drupal Developer current website’s configuration. For instance, a brand new developer may must arrange their surroundings for Drupal Developer first time or your CI system may desire a recent set up for checks. Principally Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service As a person I would like to have the ability to set up from a package deal of configuration that’s maintained in git. Current resolution (pre 8.4.x) Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service Drush –config-dir choice Putting in a website from current config isn’t as straightforward as going by Drupal Developer set up course of after which importing config although as a result of Drupal Developer recent set up could have a special website UUID than Drupal Developer current app and will not will let you import configuration on websites with totally different UUIDs. To work round this, Drush launched Drupal Developer –config-dir choice to Drupal Developer site-install command which imported Drupal Developer configuration throughout set up and magically labored round Drupal Developer UUID difficulty. That workaround did have different points together with Drupal Developer incontrovertible fact that base fields outlined in Drupal 10 module or profile config would find yourself with conflicting UUIDs. However critically, Drush 9 solely helps Drupal Developer –config-dir choice when putting in Drupal Developer Minimal profile – and Drush 8 is not suitable with 8.4.x. So we want a brand new resolution. Investigated approaches Drupal Development Drush maintainers have advised utilizing Drupal Developer Config Installer profile. We examined it and works nice, however Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service It is undocumented. It will not work if you happen to’re utilizing Lightning as a Base Profile, which we advocate. In concept, you possibly can additionally manually set your website’s UUID after set up after which import your config, however that is sloppy and is an abuse of UUIDs. It additionally would not clear up Drupal Developer issues with base fields ending up with conflicting UUIDs. Resolution ( 8.4.x) Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service One other core patch Enter Drupal Developer following difficulty Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service [#2788777] Enable a profile to be put in from current config. Drupal Development patch in #91 permits you to add a easy boolean to your sub-profile’s information file that may robotically set up your website with config from Drupal Developer config sync listing outlined in your settings.php file. Drupal Development finish result’s that irrespective of how you put in your website (through Drush, Drupal Developer UI, or Console), your current config may even be imported. Drupal Development solely drawback is that Drupal Developer scope of Drupal Developer difficulty remains to be being debated. Consequently, Lightning cannot carry Drupal Developer patch in simply but. However we are going to as quickly as Drupal Developer difficulty is RTBC or we get additional readability about Drupal Developer scope. In Drupal Developer meantime, you may carry Drupal Developer patch in your self. Directions Given Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service Your website’s config sync listing is positioned in a VCS tracked listing (e.g. “../config/sync”). You utilize a sub-profile. Apply Drupal Developer patch #91 from difficulty #2788777 to Drupal 10/core, in your root composer.json file Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service “patches” Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service { “Drupal 10/core” Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service { “Enable a profile to be put in from current config” Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service “https Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service//www.Drupal 10.org/information/points/2788777-91.patch” } } Add Drupal Developer boolean flag to your sub-profile’s information file config_sync Drupal 10 Upkeep and Assist Service true   Drupal Development consequence will likely be that every time you put in your website, your entire current configuration may even be imported. In case you are not utilizing a sub-profile, you may merely use Drupal Developer Config Installer profile talked about above. Add Drupal Developer Config Installer profile to your codebase Throughout set up choose Config Installer as Drupal Developer profile Level Config Installer to your exported config listing (Drupal Developer ensuing set up profile will nonetheless be Lightning despite the fact that you chosen Config Installer) If you happen to’re utilizing BLT in your venture (beneficial), lots of Drupal Developer configuration setup is already dealt with for you.
