README

This PHP Package is a smart include for Drupal settings.php.

Add it to your project to simplify your settings.php file by using common defaults for each hosting vendor and environment types.

It just makes things easier. For example, when using Lando, you don't have to set the database settings or DRUSH_OPTIONS_URI, and it automatically enables development mode.

Usage

1. Install with composer:

   composer require operations/drupal-settings`
   

2. Add snippet to sites/default/settings.php:

   if (file_exists(DRUPAL_ROOT . "/../vendor/operations/drupal-settings/Settings/settings.include.php")) {
       require DRUPAL_ROOT . "/../vendor/operations/drupal-settings/Settings/settings.include.php";
   }
   

3. Profit.

To override any defaults provided by settings.include.php, simply add them to your settings.php file after the snippet.

Components

1. Drupal Settings Include File - settings.include.php

   Include this file from settings.php and remove all the extra settings. For full documentation on what it does, see the file ./Settings/settings.include.php.

2. Vendor-specific settings files - Included automatically when their environment variables are detected.

3. Composer Autoload File - autoload.php

   This file is included in your site's Autoloader as early as possible.

   It is used to set Environment variables like DRUSH_OPTIONS_URI automatically.

Features

This tool attempts to automate as much configuration as possible for multiple host providers.

The main features are:

1. Detect host vendor environments and includes settings.VENDOR.php files automatically.
2. Sets $databases credentials from host vendor information, or uses MYSQL_USER-style variables.
3. Sets DRUSH_OPTIONS_URI globally so any call to drush has the correct URL.
4. Sets DRUPAL_ENV environment variable to prod when a production environment is detected. (Defaults to dev).
5. Includes environment specific settings.DRUPAL_ENV.php files from this project and sites/default/settings.DRUPAL_ENV.php from your site's source code if it exists.
6. Automatically enables development features when DRUPAL_ENV==dev by including Drupal's example.settings.local.php.
