Usage

Access

For successful installation of Sergeant modules, read access to Sergeant private repositories is needed.

Sergeant workflow

Sergeant drupal project init article (private)

Installation (!)

Initialize project with command line generator

command line generator

Initialize project just with composer

First you need to install composer.

After that you can create the project:

composer create-project sergeant/drupal-project:dev-10.x-sgt some-directory --stability dev --no-interaction

Change the some-directory with your directory where the project will be.

In case if something is not installed correctly try to clear composer cache first (composer clear-cache), and than report an issue.

Install Drupal with the Installation Profile (everything is handled by sgt_installation_profile module).
Create new checklist /admin/config/sergeant/sgt_checklist and go trough all checklist items.

Settings

For global setting use /web/sites/*/settings.php
For environment settings use /web/sites/*/settings.local.php
For development services use /web/sites/default/local.services.yml (do not use this on production!)

Development local.services.yml example:

parameters:
    session.storage.options: { gc_probability: 1, gc_divisor: 100, gc_maxlifetime: 200000, cookie_lifetime: 2000000 }
    twig.config: { debug: true, auto_reload: true, cache: true }
    renderer.config: { required_cache_contexts: ['languages:language_interface', theme, user.permissions], auto_placeholder_conditions: { max-age: 0, contexts: [session, user], tags: {  } } }
    http.response.debug_cacheability_headers: true
    factory.keyvalue: {  }
    factory.keyvalue.expirable: {  }
    filter_protocols: [http, https, ftp, news, nntp, tel, telnet, mailto, irc, ssh, sftp, webcal, rtsp]
    cors.config: { enabled: false, allowedHeaders: {  }, allowedMethods: {  }, allowedOrigins: ['*'], exposedHeaders: false, maxAge: false, supportsCredentials: false }

Updating Drupal project itself

That will update some settings in composer.json file and also some other Drupal project related files. Updates are handled by sergeant/sgt_drupal_project_update;

To update drupal project to last version: composer update_sgt_drupal_project

or to update it to specific project version: composer update_sgt_drupal_project v3.0.5

Keep local "repositories" in composer.json file as they are

In case you would not like to update "repositories" data (for example: if you change library version for given project only) use: add keep-local-repositories-data=true flag.

Example composer update_sgt_drupal_project keep-local-repositories-data=true

Updates (!)

Every time when Drupal core is updated, we have to update Drupal module Sergeant core (sgt_installation_profile). Sergeant Installation Profile holds all currently active patches for Drupal core and modules required by Sergeant Installation Profile. All other patches has to be handled on project level.
