Digital Nomads Portugal
Drupal 8 Codebase for Digital Nomads Portugal.
Installation instructions
To install the site dependencies you have to execute
composer install
Next, set up your settings.local.php file
cp web/sites/default/example.settings.local.php web/sites/default/settings.local.php
and add your database connection settings. You can also configure your development environment via this file.
You will need a production database from platform.sh to develop locally, see below.
Make sure you serve the site from the web/ directory.
Likewise, you can create a drushrc.local.php based on example.drushrc.local.php and set the virtual host address, to let drush know the ip or virtual host address it should use.
Platform.sh
We use platform.sh for production, and the master environment holds a production database.
First, install platform CLI, and login
platform login
(ask Peter for the login details).
You can now get a production database like
composer import:db
To push code to platform.sh (you should only do this for master), you need to set up a new remote and push
git remote add platform gc4j7g2zzqrry@git.eu.platform.sh:gc4j7g2zzqrry.git
git push platform master
Managing a Drupal site built with Composer
Once the site is installed, there is no difference between a site hosted on Platform.sh and a site hosted anywhere else. It's just Composer. See the Drupal documentation for tips on how best to leverage Composer with Drupal 8.
Exporting configuration
All configuration is stored in config/sync. Use drush to export and import config, like
drush cex
exports all active storage to file. Note that when you push to platform.sh, all config gets imported automatically (see .platform.app.yml for the actual drush commands).
To get config locally set up from a remote branch (i.e. rather than getting an up-to-date database dump), you can run
drush cim
