With Drupal 8.4.0's recent release, a lot of things have changed in the way people build and manage Drupal 8 sites. Composer was not necessarily a requirement for Drupal site building in the past, but it is quickly becoming so.

This will likely be the last major 4.x release for Drupal VM; bugfixes will continue for a time on the 4.x branch, but the next major version of Drupal VM—5.0.0—will see Drupal VM change to work more efficiently in a Composer workflow (it will be easier to integrate Drupal VM with your Drupal projects).

If you're not using Composer to manage your Drupal codebase yet, it's a great time to start!

Breaking Changes

  • In Issue #1520, the precedence of configuration override files was changed slightly. Previously, [environment].config.yml overrode all other configuration files, including local.config.yml. The intention of the local config file is that it is always the final override. The order of config file precedence (from lowest to highest) is now:
    1. config.yml
    2. secrets.yml
    3. [environment].config.yml
    4. local.config.yml

New/changed variables in default.config.yml

  • Removed geerlingguy/ubuntu1204 support (LTS support ended in April).
  • Default vagrant_hostname is now drupalvm.test (Google owns .dev and some DNS issues have forced us to switch to .test as the default).
  • Added drupal_db_host: localhost to fix a DB connection issue with Debian 9 'Stretch'.
  • Added headers.load to apache_mods_enabled.
  • Updated drush_version to 8.1.14.
  • Updated example post_provision_scripts path to include the full playbook_dir-based path.
