Pleased to announce the release of the Backdrop Drush Extension 1.2.0!
I have not posted release blog posts before, so let me introduce the action leading up to 1.0.0 stable and since.
0.x Releases
Leading up to 1.0 we got a bootclass to bootstrap backdrop sites. Many of our favourite commands like cc all, cron, and many others. Take a look at the README.md in the Backdrop Drush project for a more comprehensive list of commands. A great deal of work and collaboration went into getting stable downloads,enabling, and disabling of modules.
drush dl {MOUDLE_NAME(S)}
drush en {MOUDLE_NAME(S)}
drush dis {MOUDLE_NAME(S)}
1.0.0
In 1.0 we got testing infrastructure and Travis CI running coding standards and unit tests against all commits and PRs. This of course gave the confidence for a stable release. Features that landed in 1.0 are pm-uninstall and user-create:
drush backdrop-pm-uninstall {MODULE(S)}
drush backdrop-user-create --name={USER_NAME}
1.1.0
In 1.1 we introduced the ctl command. That lets you list information about content types on a site like what types are on the site, the details of a type, and the details of a field on a type.
Here is the output of drush help ctl:
└─ $ ∴ lando.dev drush help ctl
List the content types available on the site.
Examples:
drush ctl Lists all the content types on the site.
drush ctl page Lists the details of the page content type.
drush ctl page --field=body Get the details of the body field on page content type.
drush clt page --fields List the fields of the page content type.
Arguments:
type An optional machine name of a content type to get details on that content type.
Options:
--field Show info for the field (overrides --fields).
--fields Show the fields of the content type.
Aliases: ctl, content-type-list
1.2.0
With 1.2 came the commands config-get, config-set, state-get, and state-set.
Which allow you to do things like see or set the site_name for a site, put the site in or take out of maintenance_mode.
Here is the help for drush help config-set
└─ $ ∴ lando.dev drush help config-set
Use of undefined constant DRUSH_BOOTSTRAP_BACKDROP_FULL - assumed 'DRUSH_BOOTSTRAP_BACKDROP_FULL' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) libraries.drush.inc:14 [warning]
Set a configuration value.
Examples:
drush cset system.core site_name Sets the value of site_name to "My Site" in system.core.json.
"MySite"
Arguments:
file Config file to write config setting to.
setting The setting to set a value for.
value The value to set.
Aliases: config-set, cset
