Requirements

• DDEV

Installation

ddev composer install
cp .ddev/config.local.yaml.example .ddev/config.local.yaml
ddev restart

Notice that in the end of the ddev restart we get a one time admin link to login.

Configuration management

Import configuration from code:

ddev exec drush cim

Export active configuration into code:

ddev exec drush cex

Theme development

Generally for theme development, it's advisable to entirely turn off caching: https://www.drupal.org/node/2598914

Compile SASS

ddev ssh
npm install -g sass
sass --watch ./themes/custom/theme_server/scss/style.scss:./themes/custom/theme_server/css/style.css

Add new modules

With composer require ... you can download new dependencies to your installation.

composer require drupal/devel:~1.0

How can I apply patches to downloaded modules?

If you need to apply patches (depending on the project being modified, a pull request is often a better solution), you can do so with the composer-patches plugin.

To add a patch to drupal module foobar insert the patches section in the extra section of composer.json:

"extra": {
    "patches": {
        "drupal/foobar": {
            "Patch description": "URL or local path to patch"
        }
    }
}
