README

This plugin provides a new composer command (drupal-init) which helps in creating new Drupal installations based on composer. Most of the options are very similar to the default composer init command. There are additional options to specify a Drupal core or distro to use and the docroot.

This plugin also supports Drupal 7 installation but this option needs to be passed in from command line.

The composer.json setup that this plugin generates is inspired by drupal-composer/drupal-project (both D7 and D8 versions). One important difference is that the composer.json generated by this command does not need several scripts which are part of the drupal-composer project. All the functionality is moved to hussainweb/drupal-composer-helper. There are additional benefits like a simpler extra section and a more maintainable installation. For more details, see the drupal-composer-helper plugin.

Installation

Since this plugin provides a new composer command that should be used in an empty directory (or at least a directory without a composer.json setup), this has to be installed globally.

composer global require hussainweb/drupal-composer-init:~1.0

Updating

composer global update hussainweb/drupal-composer-init --with-dependencies

Usage

In a fresh directory, run this command to get started.

composer drupal-init

To intialise a Drupal 7 website, run the following command:

composer drupal-init --drupal-7

Specifying extensions (modules, themes, profiles)

Drupal extensions such as modules, themes, and profiles can be specified in the regular require or require-dev section of composer.json schema.

All Drupal extensions can be specified in the regular packages section with their drupal.org name prefixed by 'drupal/'. For example, if you want to require panels module, specify drupal/panels.
