_title: 'Our first route'
requirements:
_permission: 'access content'

To set up a local development environment, perform the following:
- Run the following commands:
$ docker-compose up -d
$ docker-compose exec php composer install
$ docker-compose exec php ./vendor/bin/run drupal:site-install
- Go to http://localhost:8080 and you have a Drupal site running. To log in, use
admin/admin.
The modules covered in the book are found inside the packt folder in the root of the project. These are duplicated in each chapter and are individually symlinked in the Drupal custom module folder.
By default, when setting up the project, the chapter 2 modules are symlinked. You can change this by creating a local runner.yml file and overriding the chapter value that is used in the symlink (check the default in the runner.yml.dist file).
Once that is done, you can run the following command to symlink the right modules:
$ docker-compose exec php ./vendor/bin/run drupal:module-setupAll outgoing sent using the native PHP mailer are caught using Mailhog. You can access the emails at http://localhost:8025.
Run tests as follows:
$ docker-compose exec -u www-data php ./vendor/bin/phpunitThis will run all the tests in the configured packt modules.
To run the coding standards check, use this command:
$ docker-compose exec php ./vendor/bin/run drupal:phpcsAnd this command to try to automatically fix coding standards issues that pop up:
$ docker-compose exec php ./vendor/bin/run drupal:phpcbfDaniel Sipos is a senior web developer specializing in Drupal.
