Installation

Prerequisites

Before installing Webhaven, make sure you have the following installed:

• DDEV (Install DDEV)
• Git (Install Git)

To check if DDEV is installed on your system open up your terminal and run:

ddev --version

You should see the installed version printed.

To check if Git is installed on your system run:

git -v

You should see the installed version printed.

Clone the repository

Clone the Webhaven project repository:

git clone <repo-url> webhaven
cd webhaven
composer install

you can replace webhaven with whatever you like as a directory name.

Setup the DDEV environment and launch it

Now it's time to initialize and start the DDEV environment:

ddev config --project-type=drupal11 --docroot=web;
ddev start;
ddev composer install;
ddev composer drupal:recipe-unpack;
ddev launch;

Let's take a closer look at all these commands.

DDEV configuration

First we setup our DDEV project with 

ddev config --project-type=drupal11 --docroot=web

And then we start DDEV to create the required containers for PHP, the database, and other services so the first time you run this command the process will take a bit longer.

ddev start

Install dependencies

Then we run the following inside the DDEV container to install dependencies:

ddev composer install

This installs all PHP dependencies, including Drupal core and the Webhaven dependencies.

Unpack recipes

Webhaven comes with recipes that we want to use.

ddev composer drupal:recipe-unpack

This turns Webhaven recipes into normal modules and settings, so your site no longer depends on the recipe.

Run a fresh Webhaven installation

Run the following command to launch the Webhaven container.

ddev launch

Follow the instructions and congratulations. You have your first Webhaven project up and running.
