This is a project template providing a great out-of-the-box experience for new Drupal 9 projects hosted on Acquia. It is based on the Drupal Recommended Project and similar to the Acquia Drupal Minimal Project, with the principal difference being the addition of several modules and packages that provide the best possible out-of-the-box experience for Acquia customers.
This project includes the following packages and configuration:
- Drupal core
- Acquia CMS (Drupal distribution)
- Drush (Drupal CLI and development tool)
- Acquia Connector (Management and reporting tool for Acquia Cloud sites)
- Acquia Site Studio (Low-code visual page builder)
- Asset Packagist repository, package, and configuration
Create a new project using Composer:
composer create-project --no-interaction acquia/drupal-recommended-project
Once you create the project, you can and should customize composer.json
and the rest of the project to suit your needs. You will receive updates from any dependent packages, but not from the project template itself. It's yours to keep!
For instance, you can remove a provided package by running the following command and committing the changed composer.json
and composer.lock
to Git:
composer remove acquia/mysql56
After creating your project, if you'd also like to use Acquia BLT, do the following:
- Add BLT via Composer with
composer require acquia/blt
- Install the BLT Launcher and follow the rest of the BLT setup guide.
- Set up automated testing using BLT recipes and plugins such as BLT Behat and the Acquia Drupal Spec Tool.
