General hello world review (some bugs)

[simesy]

All of the sites that I have setup locally are hosted in different places for different clients (Platform.sh, Lagoon, etc), and I generally have a drush command that I can run on my host regardless of whether the local development environment (ddev, lando, etc, yes i use multiple) is running.

So my goal of using ash is to exectute a command on a remote site regardless of what i'm working on locally.

Setup

When i installed with composer globally, the I had to modify the PATH, and add: export PATH="~/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH" rather than export PATH="$HOME/.config/composer:$PATH". I don't have a $HOME/.config directory.

I also had to add the directory ~/.ash because adding the initial site aliases resulted in this error. This went away when i manually added the directory.

Warning: file_put_contents(/Users/hobbss/.ash/foo.site.yml): Failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /Users/hobbss/.composer/vendor/jonpugh/ash/src/Cli/Commands/SiteCommands.php on line 195

After I'd added a couple of sites I get two files which looks pretty good:

~$ cat ~/.ash/foo.site.yml
default:
    root: /Users/hobbss/_/sites/foo

I then followed the advice to Call 'ash @foo' to access the site, so i swtiched to my home directory and ran it

~$ ash @foo
PHP Deprecated:  preg_match(): Passing null to parameter #2 ($subject) of type string is deprecated in /Users/hobbss/.composer/vendor/consolidation/site-process/src/Util/Escape.php on line 49

But all that said, ash ls now shows me 6 aliases (expected).

Running a command

In one of my projects there is a site alias file ./drush/sites/self.site.yml that points to a Platform.sh environment and it looks like this:

prod:
  host: ssh.au.platform.sh
  user: redacted-main-redacted--drupal
  uri: 'https://frees.au'
  root: /app/web
  paths:
    drush-script: /app/vendor/bin/drush

And normally I can run it like this from the codebase that contains the alias.

$ ./vendor/bin/drush @prod st
Drupal version   : 10.1.6
Site URI         : https://frees.au
DB driver        : mysql
DB hostname      : database.internal
DB port          : 3306
...

So the goal is to run it from another location. However, when i run it with ash, I get this error:

$ ash site:exec @ash.fs-web.prod st
env: ‘st’: No such file or directory
 [error]  The command "ssh -o PasswordAuthentication=no redacted-main-redacted--drupal@ssh.au.platform.sh 'cd /app/web && env DRUSH_OPTIONS_URI=https://frees.au PATH=./vendor/bin:./bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin: st'" failed.

Exit Code: 127(Command not found)

Working directory: /app/web

[jonpugh]

It doesn't pass to drush automatically.

Try ash @site drush st instead

[jonpugh]

Also, the "ash" part of the alias is not required.

You can just use @site.env.

[simesy]

These all have the same error:

ash site:exec @ash.fs-web.prod drush st
ash site:exec @fs-web.prod drush st
ash @ash.fs-web.prod drush st
ash @fs-web.prod drush st

[simesy]

I'm assuming that it can't find the drush executable in the codebase

Error Output:
================
env: ‘drush’: No such file or directory

Is there an assumption about how drush is in the path once in that directory?

[simesy]

I'm debugging locally as i'm sure there's something about my setup

[simesy]

When i run it natively, the executed command is:

ssh -t -o \
  PasswordAuthentication=no \
  redacted-main-redacted--drupal@ssh.au.platform.sh \
  '/app/vendor/bin/drush st -vvv --uri=https://frees.au'

When i run it with ash the executed command is:

ssh -o \
  PasswordAuthentication=no \
  redacted-main-redacted---drupal@ssh.au.platform.sh \
  'cd /app/web && env DRUSH_OPTIONS_URI=https://frees.au PATH=./vendor/bin:./bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin: drush st'

Note that my alias uses the paths: drush-script: /app/vendor/bin/drush which doesn't seem to be picked up when using ash.

[jonpugh]

It is just execs whatever is after the alias.

You can try ash @s which drush to figure it out

[jonpugh]

Ash runs in your alias root, which can be "web" or just git root.

The command will be relative to that.

So change your alias root or figure out how to change path to composer bin path.

[simesy]

I guess i'm a bit confused at this point with all the various contexts ash/local/remote, and can't help but think i'm using it in a way that it isn't designed for.

ash site:exec @fs-web 'which drush'

(if i don't quote the command i get ERROR: preg_match(): Passing null to parameter #2 ($subject) of type string is deprecated in /Users/hobbss/.composer/vendor/consolidation/site-process/src/Util/Escape.php:49
