# Composer template for Drupal projects
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
[](https://travis-ci.org/drupal-composer/drupal-project)
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
This project template provides a starter kit for managing your site
 | 
			
		||||
dependencies with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
If you want to know how to use it as replacement for
 | 
			
		||||
[Drush Make](https://github.com/drush-ops/drush/blob/8.x/docs/make.md) visit
 | 
			
		||||
the [Documentation on drupal.org](https://www.drupal.org/node/2471553).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Usage
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
First you need to [install composer](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md#installation-linux-unix-osx).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
> Note: The instructions below refer to the [global composer installation](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md#globally).
 | 
			
		||||
You might need to replace `composer` with `php composer.phar` (or similar)
 | 
			
		||||
for your setup.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
After that you can create the project:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
composer create-project drupal-composer/drupal-project:8.x-dev some-dir --no-interaction
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
With `composer require ...` you can download new dependencies to your
 | 
			
		||||
installation.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
cd some-dir
 | 
			
		||||
composer require drupal/devel:~1.0
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The `composer create-project` command passes ownership of all files to the
 | 
			
		||||
project that is created. You should create a new git repository, and commit
 | 
			
		||||
all files not excluded by the .gitignore file.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## What does the template do?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
When installing the given `composer.json` some tasks are taken care of:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
* Drupal will be installed in the `web`-directory.
 | 
			
		||||
* Autoloader is implemented to use the generated composer autoloader in `vendor/autoload.php`,
 | 
			
		||||
  instead of the one provided by Drupal (`web/vendor/autoload.php`).
 | 
			
		||||
* Modules (packages of type `drupal-module`) will be placed in `web/modules/contrib/`
 | 
			
		||||
* Theme (packages of type `drupal-theme`) will be placed in `web/themes/contrib/`
 | 
			
		||||
* Profiles (packages of type `drupal-profile`) will be placed in `web/profiles/contrib/`
 | 
			
		||||
* Creates default writable versions of `settings.php` and `services.yml`.
 | 
			
		||||
* Creates `web/sites/default/files`-directory.
 | 
			
		||||
* Latest version of drush is installed locally for use at `vendor/bin/drush`.
 | 
			
		||||
* Latest version of DrupalConsole is installed locally for use at `vendor/bin/drupal`.
 | 
			
		||||
* Creates environment variables based on your .env file. See [.env.example](.env.example).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Updating Drupal Core
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
This project will attempt to keep all of your Drupal Core files up-to-date; the
 | 
			
		||||
project [drupal-composer/drupal-scaffold](https://github.com/drupal-composer/drupal-scaffold)
 | 
			
		||||
is used to ensure that your scaffold files are updated every time drupal/core is
 | 
			
		||||
updated. If you customize any of the "scaffolding" files (commonly .htaccess),
 | 
			
		||||
you may need to merge conflicts if any of your modified files are updated in a
 | 
			
		||||
new release of Drupal core.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Follow the steps below to update your core files.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
1. Run `composer update drupal/core webflo/drupal-core-require-dev symfony/* --with-dependencies` to update Drupal Core and its dependencies.
 | 
			
		||||
1. Run `git diff` to determine if any of the scaffolding files have changed.
 | 
			
		||||
   Review the files for any changes and restore any customizations to
 | 
			
		||||
  `.htaccess` or `robots.txt`.
 | 
			
		||||
1. Commit everything all together in a single commit, so `web` will remain in
 | 
			
		||||
   sync with the `core` when checking out branches or running `git bisect`.
 | 
			
		||||
1. In the event that there are non-trivial conflicts in step 2, you may wish
 | 
			
		||||
   to perform these steps on a branch, and use `git merge` to combine the
 | 
			
		||||
   updated core files with your customized files. This facilitates the use
 | 
			
		||||
   of a [three-way merge tool such as kdiff3](http://www.gitshah.com/2010/12/how-to-setup-kdiff-as-diff-tool-for-git.html). This setup is not necessary if your changes are simple;
 | 
			
		||||
   keeping all of your modifications at the beginning or end of the file is a
 | 
			
		||||
   good strategy to keep merges easy.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Generate composer.json from existing project
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
With using [the "Composer Generate" drush extension](https://www.drupal.org/project/composer_generate)
 | 
			
		||||
you can now generate a basic `composer.json` file from an existing project. Note
 | 
			
		||||
that the generated `composer.json` might differ from this project's file.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## FAQ
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Should I commit the contrib modules I download?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Composer recommends **no**. They provide [argumentation against but also
 | 
			
		||||
workrounds if a project decides to do it anyway](https://getcomposer.org/doc/faqs/should-i-commit-the-dependencies-in-my-vendor-directory.md).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Should I commit the scaffolding files?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The [drupal-scaffold](https://github.com/drupal-composer/drupal-scaffold) plugin can download the scaffold files (like
 | 
			
		||||
index.php, update.php, …) to the web/ directory of your project. If you have not customized those files you could choose
 | 
			
		||||
to not check them into your version control system (e.g. git). If that is the case for your project it might be
 | 
			
		||||
convenient to automatically run the drupal-scaffold plugin after every install or update of your project. You can
 | 
			
		||||
achieve that by registering `@composer drupal:scaffold` as post-install and post-update command in your composer.json:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```json
 | 
			
		||||
"scripts": {
 | 
			
		||||
    "post-install-cmd": [
 | 
			
		||||
        "@composer drupal:scaffold",
 | 
			
		||||
        "..."
 | 
			
		||||
    ],
 | 
			
		||||
    "post-update-cmd": [
 | 
			
		||||
        "@composer drupal:scaffold",
 | 
			
		||||
        "..."
 | 
			
		||||
    ]
 | 
			
		||||
},
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
### How can I apply patches to downloaded modules?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
If you need to apply patches (depending on the project being modified, a pull
 | 
			
		||||
request is often a better solution), you can do so with the
 | 
			
		||||
[composer-patches](https://github.com/cweagans/composer-patches) plugin.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
To add a patch to drupal module foobar insert the patches section in the extra
 | 
			
		||||
section of composer.json:
 | 
			
		||||
```json
 | 
			
		||||
"extra": {
 | 
			
		||||
    "patches": {
 | 
			
		||||
        "drupal/foobar": {
 | 
			
		||||
            "Patch description": "URL or local path to patch"
 | 
			
		||||
        }
 | 
			
		||||
    }
 | 
			
		||||
}
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
### How do I switch from packagist.drupal-composer.org to packages.drupal.org?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Follow the instructions in the [documentation on drupal.org](https://www.drupal.org/docs/develop/using-composer/using-packagesdrupalorg).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### How do I specify a PHP version ?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
This project supports PHP 5.6 as minimum version (see [Drupal 8 PHP requirements](https://www.drupal.org/docs/8/system-requirements/drupal-8-php-requirements)), however it's possible that a `composer update` will upgrade some package that will then require PHP 7+.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
To prevent this you can add this code to specify the PHP version you want to use in the `config` section of `composer.json`:
 | 
			
		||||
```json
 | 
			
		||||
"config": {
 | 
			
		||||
    "sort-packages": true,
 | 
			
		||||
    "platform": {
 | 
			
		||||
        "php": "5.6.40"
 | 
			
		||||
    }
 | 
			
		||||
},
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
 
 | 
			
		||||
