Drupal phing

Drupal phing is environment for drupal developers
allow to take control over the code and database.
It makes possible real CI and CD for Drupal.

System requirements

IMPORTANT: Tested only on Ubuntu linux.
Please report about other OS cases.
Windows have a lot of problems.

Install requirements

$ pear config-set auto_discover 1
$ pear channel-discover pear.phing.info
$ pear install --alldeps phing/phing-beta
$ pear install --alldeps "channel://pear.php.net/VersionControl_SVN-0.4.0"
$ pear install --alldeps "channel://pear.php.net/VersionControl_GIT-0.4.4"
$ pear install --alldeps PHP_CodeSniffer
$ pear channel-discover pear.phpmd.org
$ pear channel-discover pear.pdepend.org
$ pear install --alldeps phpmd/PHP_PMD
$ pear install pear.phpunit.de/phpcpd
$ pear channel-discover pear.pdepend.org
$ pear install pdepend/PHP_Depend-beta
$ apt-get install subversion
$ sudo usermod -a -G www-data {user_name}
relogin

Best practice:

$ ./depends.install.sh
$ apt-get install subversion
$ sudo usermod -a -G www-data {user_name}
relogin

Subversion install from this site
http://subversion.tigris.org/

Config local environment

Copy default properties example to default.prop environment file

$ cp build/properties/default.prop.example build/properties/default.prop

Best practice:

$ cp build/properties/default.prop.example build/properties/{developer-name}.prop
$ cd build/properties
$ ln -s {developer-name}.prop default.prop

Install drupal

Just run install phing target to install drupal and host.install target to install host.
$ phing host.install
$ phing install

Open drupal page in browser with host you define in local enviroment properties.

Directory structure

Static directories (Not created in auto mode, stored in git and not cleaned with any phing targets)

- build // Store build system
-- properties // Store build system configurations
--- project.prop // Project specific configurations, are same for different developer environments
--- default.prop.example // Default example properties for developer specific environments
--- default.prop // Default properties for developer specific environments. User create with his own
-- tasks // Store subsystems for build.
-- templates // Store templates (settings.php, configs apache and nginx, shell script to install drupal on server)
- capistrano // Store capistration scripts and configurations
- custom // Store custom code
-- modules // Store custom modules
-- themes // Store custom themes
- drake // Store drush migrate (drake) files. Mostly used to enable/disable modules. http://drupal.org/project/drush_migrate
- patches // Store patches you need to apply for contrib modules.
- resources // Store resource files for current project
-- files // Store drupal files
build.make // Store drupal make configurations. http://drupal.org/project/drush_make
build.xml // Core of build system.
depends.install.sh // Shell script to install pear dependences.

Dynamic directories (Created in automode, store some temporary files, can be cleaned up with phing targets)

- www // Document root for builded drupal site. Cleaned with $ phing clear
- tools // Store additional tools required with build system.
- deploy // Store drupal code ready to deploy to server

Phing targets

System

$ phing -l  // List all avaliable task
$ phing host.install // Creates virtual host

Development

$ phing install // Install drupal from scratch
$ phing reinstall // Remake code and run updates
$ phing update  // Run updates
$ phing remake // Remake code

Environments

$ phing development // Set Development environment
$ phing debug // Set Debug environment
$ phing staging // Set Staging environment
$ phing production // Set Production environment

Solr

$ phing solr-run // Start solr instance
$ phing solr-stop // Stop solr instance
$ phing solr-update-configs // Update solr configs  

Add module workflow

Add into build.make file

projects[{module_name}][subdir] = "contrib"
projects[{module_name}][version] = "{module_version}"

Create drush_migrate script to drake dir.
!IMPORTANT: drush_migrate script name should be {{last_drush_migrate_script} + 1}.drake
Enable module with adding line pm-enable {module_name} to just created drush_migrate script.

Module dev versions and getting from git

If you use dev version of module, get it directly from git.

projects[mimemail][subdir] = "contrib" 
projects[mimemail][download][type] = "git" 
projects[mimemail][download][url] = "git://git.drupal.org/project/mimemail.git" 
; 1.x-dev
projects[mimemail][download][revision] = "c26bb469231abde640d484d2a8faef8f5c3c191f" 

To find revision visit

http://drupalcode.org/project/{module name}.git

and find there revision for branch you need.

List of revision hash

$ git ls-remote git://drupalcode.org/project/{module name}.git

List of revision hash for branch or tag

$ git ls-remote git://drupalcode.org/project/{module name}.git branchname\tagname
