Drupal Starter Kits
Using separate build and install commands
The ./vendor/bin/acms acms:install command builds Composer dependencies each time the command is invoked, irrespective of whether the dependencies are already installed. Therefore, with this command, the system performs redundant activities.
To prevent redundancy and optimize the build process, you can leverage the following commands:
Drupal Starter Kits./vendor/bin/acms acms:build./vendor/bin/acms site:installThese commands are created as splits from the ./vendor/bin/acms acms:install command. With the split commands, you can perform tasks based on your specific use case.
This command enables you to build your codebase once with Composer dependencies. The commands prompts you to answer questions that it can leverage to create the build.yml file. This file is then reused by the Drupal Starter Kits install command. Therefore, you do not need to execute Composer commands repeatedly.
To use the Drupal Starter Kits build command:
Run ./vendor/bin/acms acms:build.
Wait until Composer builds your project with the selected starter kit.
You can build your project once with the specific starter kit and use the generated build.yml file to install sites elsewhere.
The Drupal Starter Kits build command provides the --generate option to generate a build.yml file from the existing project architecture. The Drupal Starter Kits install command can use this file to install the site anywhere.
./vendor/bin/acms acms:build --generate --uri <site_name>--generate option creates a build.yml file without execution of Composer dependencies. It only prompts for questions for selecting the specific starter kit.–uri parameter, the command uses default as the default site name.–uri parameter, the command adds or updates information in the acms/build.yml with the specified uri.The ./vendor/bin/acms site:install command installs the site by reading the build.yml file. This command checks the acms/build.yml file in the project root directory. If the build.yml file does not exist, the command checks in the vendor/acquia/acquia-cms-starterkit/acms/build.yml path and installs the site with default options.
–uri parameter, the command checks for the default key in the acms/build.yml file and installs the site.–uri parameter and the acms/build.yml file exists, the command installs a site for the specified uri. If the specified uri does not exist in the acms/build.yml file, the command falls back to default and installs from default.The Drupal Starter Kits install command leverages all the options provided by the drush site:install command. For example, –uri.
