Fast Paced Drupal 8 Speed up with composer, console and services /@emarchak @myplanetHQ /emarchak.github.io/fastpaced_drupal8 github.com/emarchak/fastpaced_videos

Why Change for D8? 1. Speed up your development process 2. Play well with others

Dependencies Dependency manager for PHP Extends Symfony console for boilerplates and interactions. Guzzle is a PHP HTTP client. Familiarity with Drupal 7 development Composer Drupal Console Guzzle (in core)

Overview 1. Build using Composer 2. Install using Console 3. Create a Module using Console 4. Export Content Types using Console 5. Create Admin Form using Console 6. Create a Service using Console 7. Import Nodes using Guzzle 8. Include your module using Composer

1. Build using Composer Download Drupal into the docroot. to Drush Make for building sites.Composer is a really exciting alternative $composercreate-projectdrupal/drupaldocroot8.0.5 $cddocroot

Managing patches using composer For Drupal 8.0.5 only, we'll need to , but any module can be patched.patch core $composerrequirecweagans/composer-patches--no-update "extra":{... "patches":{ "drupal/drupal":{ "Combinationof--prefer-distand.gitattributesconfusesourvendortestcleanup" } }

Add to installer paths to let us download modules to ./docroot/modules/contrib "extra":{... "installer-paths":{ "modules/contrib/{$name}":[ "type:drupal-module" ] } },

Add as a repo, so we can download Drupal modules. Drupal Composer "repositories":[{ "type":"composer", "url":"https://packagist.drupal-composer.org" }]

Install some Drupal modules! improves the core Drupal toolbar, and is used in our demo. Admin Toolbar Video Embed Field $composerrequiredrupal/admin_toolbar:8.1.14--no-update $composerrequiredrupal/video_embed_field:8.1.0-rc5--no-update $composerupdate

2. Install using Console $drupalsite:install $drupalmodule:installadmin_toolbar $drupalmodule:installvideo_embed_field

Move the conﬁguration sync directory outside of the docroot, and add .Symfony's new trusted host patterns $config_directories['sync']='../config/sync'; $settings['trusted_host_patterns']=['^fastpaced.local$']; $drupalconfig:export

3. Create a Module using Console Let's create a fast-paced module... $drupalgenerate:module Enterthenewmodulename: >Fastpacedvideos

... and a speedy content type! $drupalgenerate:entity:bundle Enterthemodulename[admin_toolbar]: >fastpaced_videos Enterthemachinenameofyournewcontenttype[default]: >video $drupalmodule:installfastpaced_videos

4. Export Content Types using Console Log into the site and conﬁgure the content type as needed, before you export it. $drupalconfig:export:content:type >video Exportcontenttypeinmoduleasanoptionalconfiguration(yes/no)[yes]: >no

Can we generate some example content? Yes we can. $drupalcreate:nodes

5. Create Admin form using Console $drupalgenerate:form:config EntertheFormClassname[DefaultForm]: >ImportSettingsForm Doyouwanttogenerateaformstructure?(yes/no)[yes]: >y Type: number Inputlabel: ImportMax Description: Maximumamountofnodestoimportprecronrun Defaultvalue:10 Type: textfield Inputlabel: SearchTerms Description: Feedtoimportfrom Defaultvalue:macaframa

Export the conﬁguration settings. $drupalconfig:export:single--directory=modules/custom/fastpaced_videos/config/install Configurationtype[Simpleconfiguration]: >system.simple Configurationname[automated_cron.settings]: >fastpaced_videos.importsettings

6. Import Nodes using Guzzle Add fastpaced_videos_cron(). /** *@file *Containsfastpaced_videos.module. */ useDrupalCoreUrl; useDrupalComponentSerializationJson; /** *Implementshook_cron(). */ functionfastpaced_videos_cron(){...} Some parts of Drupal 8 are still procedural like 7, hook_themeand hook_cron, for example. for further changes to fastpaced_videos.moduleRefer to the repo

7. Create a Service using Console We'll be importing videos using guzzle, so we'll need to create a service to save them. $drupalgenerate:service Entertheservicename[fastpaced_videos.default]: >fastpaced_videos.import EntertheClassname[DefaultService]: >ImportService Doyouwanttoloadservicesfromthecontainer(yes/no)[no]: >yes Enteryourservice[]: >entity.query >entity_type.manager for further changes to fastpaced_videos/src/ImportServiceInterface.phpRefer to the repo

8. Add your custom module to composer Add as a repo, so we can can download our custom module. our github repo "repositories":[...{ "type":"git", "url":"https://github.com/emarchak/fastpaced_videos.git" }] $composerrequireemarchak/fastpaced_videos

Ride eternal, shiny and chrome. /@emarchak @myplanetHQ /emarchak.github.io/fastpaced_drupal8 github.com/emarchak/fastpaced_videos
