drupal

Overview

Install and manage different versions of Drupal including modules and sites.

Usage

The module uses Drush and the Drush makefiles to manage a Drupal site configuration. So everytime any of the Puppet configuration changes, the whole site will be rebuild from ground. To be able to do this, the site configuration (settings.php) and files have to be kept outside of the actual Drupal site. Furthermore, multi-site configurations are currently not supported.

The structure of the three major properties (modules, themes and libraries) translates directly to the Drush makefile format. See here for an example of the possible configuration.

Install Drupal 7 with a bunch of modules, a theme and a library:

drupal::site { 'example.com':
  core_version => '7.32',
  modules      => {
    'ctools'   => '1.4',
    'token'    => '1.5',
    'pathauto' => '1.2',
    'views'    => '3.8',
  },
  themes       => {
    'omega' => '4.3',
  },
  libraries    => {
    'jquery_ui' => {
      'download' => {
        'type' => 'file',
        'url'  => 'http://jquery-ui.googlecode.com/files/jquery.ui-1.6.zip',
        'md5'  => 'c177d38bc7af59d696b2efd7dda5c605',
      },
    },
  },
}

Install Drupal 6:

drupal::site { 'example.com':
  core_version => '6.33',
}

Install a module from a custom location:

drupal::site { 'example.com':
  modules => {
    'cck'   => {
      'download' => {
        'type' => 'file',
        'url'  => 'http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/cck-6.x-2.9.tar.gz',
        'md5'  => '9e30f22592b7ecf08d020e0c626efc5b',
      },
    },
  },
}

Apply a patch:

drupal::site { 'example.com':
  modules => {
    'pathauto' => {
      'version' => '1.2',
      'patch'   => [
        'https://www.drupal.org/files/pathauto_admin.patch'
      ],
    },
  },
}

Install the jquery_ui library into sites/all/modules/jquery_ui/jquery.ui as opposed to sites/all/libraries/jquery_ui.

drupal::site { 'example.com':
  libraries => {
    'jquery_ui' => {
      'download'       => {
        'type' => 'file',
        'url'  => 'https://www.dropbox.com/s/kcg4l39c3bqgee1/jquery.ui-1.6.zip',
        'md5'  => 'c177d38bc7af59d696b2efd7dda5c605',
      },
      'destination'    => 'modules/jquery_ui',
      'directory_name' => 'jquery.ui',
    },
  },
}

Configure the cron job:

drupal::site { 'example.com':
  cron_email_address => 'webmaster',
}

Disable the cron job (e.g. if it is managed separately):

drupal::site { 'example.com':
  cron_file_ensure => absent,
}

Limitations

Drupal-specific

• No multi-sites support
• No backup configuration
• Drupal site configuration (settings.xml) has to be provided

The module has been tested on the following operating systems. Testing and patches for other platforms are welcome.

• Debian 9.0 (Stretch)
• Debian 10.0 (Buster)
• Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic Beaver)
• Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal Fossa)

Development

This project uses rspec-puppet and beaker to ensure the module works as expected and to prevent regressions.

gem install bundler
bundle install --path vendor

bundle exec rake spec
bundle exec rake beaker

(note: see Beaker - Supported ENV variables for a list of environment variables to control the default behaviour of Beaker)
