Everything Drupal!!

getting images to appear in local env

run drush en stage_file_proxy

if there's an error, find settings.php

add

$conf['stage_file_proxy_origin'] = 'https://WellcomeWeb:2!5Eust0nRd@wt-corporate-master.codeenigma.net';
$conf['stage_file_proxy_use_imagecache_root'] = TRUE;

if you can edit and need to change permissions, the cd in the right dir and run git config core.fileMode false, sudo chmod 777 settings.php

Drupal data structures

Importing or updating database

Request a copy of the database Once you receive it, save a copy for database locally in your drupal file system (local site folder).

  1. Go to vagrant terminal (virtual machine) using following command

    $ vagrant ssh

  2. Run following command to import database

    $ mysql -uroot -proot drupal < /drupal_file_system_path/your_database.sql

so in the case of 14th nov:

$ mysql -uroot -proot drupal < var/www/corporate/www/mariadb-init/corpdb081118.sql

Updating the database

First request a copy of the db from a backend dev on the team. copy the db into the directory for your local site in the mariadb-init folder then enter the directory for the vagrant and then vagrant up then vagrant ssh then drush sql-cli < /mariadb-init/dump-file.sql

MUST USE THIS COMMAND

but if I'm inside mariab-init then run drush sql-cli < dump-file.sql

and it should take a few minutes but will work 😃

(this was executed on weds 6th feb, for tkt #3724)

after updating changes in master (that needed to be reset etc)

run...

$ drush updatedb , or drush updb

$ drush fra -y (this is a feature revert)

$ drush cc all

Creating a new admin account using one time log in

Drupal Theming

  • overview of template.php

three steps to theming

  • template files (.tpl.php) -replacing tpl.php.varaible
  • theme functions overriding

inside the developers theme directory

MyTheme dir/ folder

  • myTheme.info
  • page.tpl.php
  • template.php

template.php

contains pure php a place for extensive logic or sql queries

to provide a new variable in the file, you must create a new function and then prefix the name of the theme at the start. also need to add underscore so for example.

myTheme_preprocess(&$vars, $hooks) the name of the hook should be the same name as the tpl.php file which is...

theme functions are never called directly. So for example it is written as follows: -theme('username', $object)
