Quick start

$ composer create-project linnovate/openideal-composer YOUR_PROJECT_NAME

Composer will create a new directory called YOUR_PROJECT_NAME, then you will need to install OpenideaL like you would any other Drupal site.

Development

Configuration management

To export some changes from database to sync directory please use the following command: drupal config:export --remove-uuid --remove-config-hash --directory=profiles/contrib/idea/config/install

There are two ways to pull and apply the latest changes:

By performing a new installation (see "Quick start" section).
By pulling new changes from git repo and importing new changes from sync directory to the database: drush cim --partial --source="profiles/contrib/idea/config/install"
In non-development mode please manage configuration via drush cim and drush cex commands.

Troubleshooting

Make sure the composer has been installed on your local machine, otherwise you need to install the composer before site installation
Please make sure you don't have the following files in the config directory before importing configs via Drush:

core.extension.yml
system.site.yml
