For whom?

• Who wants to implement current updates rapidly

• Who doesn’t like to do the same actions again and again

• Who chooses Linux hosting

• Who likes shell (drupal+shell=drush)

• And it is comfortable for local developing (deployment, supporting, migration, backup)

Basic Commands

• Drush <host> status

• Drush dl <project_1> < project_2> < project_3>

• the same with drush en/dis/pm-uninstall

• Drush cc [all|menu|css-js…]

• Drush help <some_command>

• etc

Coworking Drush and Linux

• For example:

• drush dis pathauto && drush pm-uninstall pathauto && rm –rf pathauto

• drush dl omega_tools && drush en omega_tools –y

• drush pm-list | grep omega

New Modules - New Commands

• For example:

• drush omega-subtheme "Test theme" html5 --machine_name=test_theme && drush en test_theme -y && drush pm-list | grep test_theme

Install Drupal

1. Prepare database (mysql>create database <DB_name>;)

2. Use one drush command site-install (or alias si)

• drush si standard --db-url=mysql://<DB_user>:<passwd>@<DB_host>/<DB_name> --db-su=<admin> -db-su-pw=<some_password> --site-name=‘Dev Site!’

Recover user’s password

or how to crack Drupal users

Use

•drush uli -l http://<somehost>

or

•drush upwd <user> --password=<password>

Minor Drupal Updating

7.10 to 7.14

1.!Backup! Project DataBase and Files /.htaccess and robots.txt

2.Move from project all custom files/folders

3.Switch on update module

4.drush upc / up -y

•Wait for a moment

•That’s all

•It takes you about 5 minutes

•Use the same command for contrib modules UPD

Major updating… faced with

• Contributed module developing (for example: /project/photos – last update - 2009-Dec-30)

• But it needs to migrate about 150 albums and 6000 photos

• If you still hardcode (or hook) contributed modules

• Need to rewrite custom themes

Drush Updating

• /usr/local/share/drush

• cd /usr/local/share/

• drush dl drush --destination=.

• and use drush cc drush (clear drush cache)

qd command

• Without VH, DB… ready Drupal profile

• Sqlite issue

• Server settings

• Why to do it?

Alias

• $aliases['dev'] = array('root' => '/path/to/drupal', 'uri' => 'dev.mydrupalsite.com', );

• drush @dev status

• $ drush --root=/path/to/drupal --uri=dev.mydrupalsite.com status

Git + cron + drush

• GitHub.com is our basic repo

• Use script files (*.sh)

• Use git command (for example: git pull) there

• Use drush command there (sql-dump or cc all)

• And cron schedule (crontab -e)

Git + cron + drush

Drush in windows

• Windows installer from 5.x version

• To install with online connection (required pecl library)

• Additional mysql software tuning (for example drush sql-dump)

Drush Hardships

• To start using it. For window’s and click-mouse funs it may be a psychological issue

• That's not the game for share hosting

• More flexible and usable in Linux platform.

• At the beginning you need to learn a list of popular commands. U can print it and stick to wall.

• Update modules issue in distributives (for example, OpenAtrium)

Conclusion

• Use open source software

• Commands shell – more health-given for your fingers =)

• It saves your time!
