The Site Factory Connector module (available on Drupal.org) connects your website to the Site Factory platform. The modules enables several critical features, including the following:
For directions regarding installing and enabling the Site Factory Connector, select the tab that corresponds to your website’s installed version of Drupal:
blt recipes:acsf:init:all
command.Use the instructions at Installing a Drupal 9 module to install the most recent 8.x version of the Site Factory Connector module.
Note
Be sure to install the appropriate version of the module, based on the version of Drush that you are using. For more information, see the Site Factory Connector module page on Drupal.org.
Do not install the module in more than one location in your code repository
(such as both docroot/profiles/profilename/modules/contrib
and
docroot/modules/contrib
). Multiple instances of the module can prevent
Site Factory from discovering and using the module.
To determine if your code repository contains more than one version of the
module, run the following Git command in the docroot
directory:
git ls-files "*acsf.info*"
The Site Factory Connector module contains several sub-modules that provide additional functions. When you enable the main Connector module, you also enable most of the included sub-modules; however, some sub-modules must be enabled manually, depending on your website’s needs.
Keeping the Site Factory Connector module up-to-date in your codebase helps keep your platform secure, and gives you access to new platform features as they are developed.
Acquia publishes release notes for Site Factory that include information about new versions of the Site Factory connector module, bugfixes, and any necessary upgrade instructions.
Whenever you update the Site Factory Connector module to a newer version, be sure to update your codebase to use the module.
