Drupal Installer

This is a simple Composer package that will install Drupal at the root of your Composer project.

Drupal is not directly contained in this project. It is downloaded from the drupal.org website.

NOTE: This project was forked from thecodingmachine/drupal; my need was to have Drupal extracted into a particular directory in the project root.

Installing Drupal using this Composer package:

Not used to Composer? The first step is installing Composer. This is essentially a one line process:

curl -s https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

Windows users can download the phar file here: install composer. Then create a composer.json file at the root of your project:

{
    "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "https://github.com/sprak3000/drupal"
        }
    ],
    "require": {
        "sprak3000/drupal": "7.31.x-dev"
    }
}

and finally, run

php composer.phar install

This will download and unpack the Drupal archive in a public folder at the root of your project. In this example, the version downloaded is 7.31.
