More automation with 'fin init'

Site provisioning can be automated using fin init, which calls the shell script in .docksal/commands/init.
This script is meant to be modified per project. The one in this repo will give you a good example of advanced init script.

Some common tasks that can be handled by the init script:

  • initialize local settings files for Docker Compose, Drupal, Behat, etc.
  • import DB or perform a site install
  • compile Sass
  • run DB updates, revert features, clear caches, etc.
  • enable/disable modules, update variables values
  • run Behat tests

Behat test examples

Behat tests are stored in tests/behat.

Example of running Behat tests:

fin behat features/blackbox.feature

Drupal multisite example

There is an additional site configured in this project: anothersite.drupal7-advanced.docksal

To have it installed during fin init

  1. Uncomment the following block in .docksal/commands/init:

    # Multisite - install an additional site
    site_install_anothersite
    
  2. Run fin init again
