Basic setup for Drupal on aquia.

Project init notes

Why? Non-pantheon projects are signifigantly different in terms of all the pieces it's easier to start from here.

  1. Create new repo from template
    • Setup a github team specific to the project
    • Add branch protection
    • Squash and merge only
  2. Get the acquia settings.php file and drush alias file for site in acquia
  3. Update docksal/circleci environment variables as necessary
  4. Make docksal is setup with KDCL basic based theme. see docksal command.
  5. Add code@kanopi to acquia project
  6. Add tugboat ssh key to code@kanopi acquia account
  7. Update documentation as necessary

Local development

We use Docksal to do our local development. Please install Docksal first.

Acquia Config

Configuring Acquia a key and secret must be set up to download asset from Acquia like the database. To create a key and secret go to the API Tokens.

fin config set --global SECRET_ACQUIA_CLI_KEY=XXX
fin config set --global SECRET_ACQUIA_CLI_SECRET=XXX

Once your key has been added, verify that you have access to the project in Acquia, then proceed with the following steps to build the project:

git clone [email protected]:kanopi/REPO.git
cd REPO
fin init

Theme

The theme is based off the Kanopi Design Component Library which uses Storybook and is originally forked from Emulsify DS.

The theme included is located within docroot/sites/themes/custom/THEME.

The Storybook Design System published to the gh-pages branch and is available at https://kanopi.github.io/REPO_NAME/

Locally, running fin npm run storybook or fin npm run build will build the Storybook at http://storybook.${VIRTUAL_HOST}

The theme uses Webpack and NPM to manage packages and run scripts.

Storybook

  • Theme development run fin npm run develop. This will watch for all twig, js, and sass changes within the components directory.
  • The development storybook URL http://storybook.${VIRTUAL_HOST}

Storybook Webpack

For webpack storybook to work within a docksal container we needed to set watchOptions in docroot/themes/custom/THEME/.storybook/webpack.config.js

config.watchOptions = {
  aggregateTimeout: 200,
  poll: 1000,
}

Pa11y Audits

We have a Docksal command that will run pa11y-ci audits fin pa11y. When the command finishes the reports are available at the following url pa11y.VIRTUAL_HOST

If you want to change the configuration of the Pa11y tests you can edit the .pa11yci.js file.

Note: This was cribbed from Phase2

Deployments

Deployments are managed through Tugboat, CircleCI and the Acquia UI.

Code flow:

  1. Create a PR from your branch that has your updates in it.
    • CircleCI will also run code standards and rector checks against the PR.
  2. This will create a Tugboat environment to test your new feature/change in.
    • Tugboat provides Lighthouse and Backstop visual regression testing.
  3. Once the code is ready, merge the PR in to the default branch.
  4. CircleCI will do a git push to the dev environment on Acquia
    • We are using Acquia Cloud Hooks to do a Drupal config imports and database updates on deploys in Acquia.
    • Note: If you update the major version of Drush you need to double check that version is available in Acquia. I.E. drush11 or drush10. Currently, it's set to Drush 10.
  5. To deploy to production use the Acquia UI to move the code to the different environments

Solr

We are using Acquia Solr Search which defaults to Solr 7.

We have setup Solr on Docksal and Tugboat with environment specific config overrides in settings.php

$config['search_api.server.acquia_search_server'] = [
  'backend_config' => [
    'connector' => 'standard',
    'connector_config' => [
      'scheme' => 'http',
      'host' => 'solr',
      'path' => '',
      'core' => 'search_api_solr_8.x-2.0',
      'port' => '8983',
    ],
  ],
];

The Search API UI for editing the doesn't show the changes right away. To validate the overrides run the following command drush cget search_api.server.acquia_search_server --include-overridden
