  • DDEV and Composer
    • DDEV has built-in Composer commands
    • Commands: DDEV provides the ddev composer and ddev composer create commands. These run Composer inside the container.

Composer

  • Composer is a dependency manager for PHP. Drupal core uses Composer to manage core dependencies like Symfony components and Guzzle.
    • PHP has to be installed. Use php -v to check your PHP version.
  • Using Composer with Drupal
  • You can use Composer to download and install Drupal core, as well as contributed modules, themes, and their third-party dependencies.
  • Composer can also be used to update Drupal and its dependencies.
  • List of composer commands
    • composer install: This command reads the composer.json file from the current directory, resolves the dependencies, and installs them into the vendor directory.
    • composer require: This command adds new packages to the composer.json file and installs them. For example, composer require drush/drush will install drush. We can use a similar command to install drupal.
    • composer update: This command updates the dependencies to their latest versions according to the composer.json file.
    • composer remove: This command removes packages from the composer.json file and reupdates the dependencies.
    • composer list: list all commands
    • composer self-update.

Drush

  • Drush, also known as the Drupal Shell, is a command-line utility and scripting interface for Drupal. It’s widely used in Drupal development and system administration. It’s recommended to use composer to install Drush inside your project.
    • Speeds up tasks: Drush can speed up installing, developing, debugging, and maintaining Drupal sites.
    • Generates boilerplate code: It’s capable of generating boilerplate code for custom developments.
    • Command-line interface: Rather than clicking through the admin interface to achieve something, you simply type in one command.
  • It’s recommended to use composer to install Drush inside your project. Local dev tools such as DDEV or Lando provide aliases to run Drush without path and from any directory.
  • Some drush commands

Install by Docker

  • Installing Drupal with Docker Compose on Debian 10
  • How to Install Drupal with Docker on Ubuntu 22.04
  • How To Develop a Drupal 9 Website on Your Local Machine Using Docker and DDEV 2020/8. Installation looks fine but I got a message '400 Bad Request The plain HTTP request was sent to HTTPS port' after I try to sign in. In fact, the operations still work. If I manually changed the URL from "http" to "https", it'll show the new results.
