Install D8 and modules using composer

[dannylamb]

Install PR for #474 and #475

Testing instructions

• Pull down the code from this PR

git checkout -b dannylamb-composer master
git pull https://github.com/dannylamb/CLAW.git composer

• visit https://github.com/settings/tokens and get an oauth token (check the 'repos' checkbox when making it)
• put your token in install/configs/variables as the GITHUB_TOKEN variable (it's set to 'changeme' by default)
• vagrant up

Functionality should remain the same. I tested by creating, editing, and then deleting a fedora resource, and made sure the rules actions were firing.

Initial testing has found that we hit a rate limit for github requests through composer. We can fix that for devs by allowing them to provide their authentication creds in configuration. For users without github accounts, we need to provide 'stable' releases through packagist.

[dannylamb]

This works right now using an oauth token from github. I'll update the README in this pull later.

Long term, the solution is just to get on packagist and have small, frequent releases. I'm already bringing this up at the next committers meeting https://github.com/Islandora-CLAW/CLAW/wiki/January-18%2C-2017

Ok, new vagrant with an OAuth token and this branch ended up with a loop trying to download restui

==> default: restui was not found.                                                  [warning]
==> default: The following projects provide some or all of the extensions not            [ok]
==> default: found:
==> default: restui
==> default: Would you like to download them? (y/n): 
==> default: y
==> default: This codebase is assembled with Composer instead of Drush. Use           [error]
==> default: `composer update` and `composer require` instead of `drush
==> default: pm-updatecode` and `drush pm-download`. You may override this error
==> default: by using the --pm-force option.
==> default: restui was not found.                                                  [warning]
==> default: The following projects provide some or all of the extensions not            [ok]
==> default: found:

So either we add the --pm-force or change the drush dl to composer require.

Preferences?

Just as a note I modified the restui one to say

composer require "drupal/restui:~8.x-1.0"

and then got stuck on a loop at the next one. So this is not limited to restui.

@whikloj I say, let's talk about this tomorrow on CLAW tech call?I feel our approach is not working or we are doing something wrong?

[dannylamb]

@whikloj That loop happens if you try and drush dl something. You have to switch to composer require or actually just put it in the require section of the composer.json.

[DiegoPino]

@whikloj we should swich to installing drush globally
composer global require drush/drush

This was all my mistake, I cloned the wrong drupal-project repo. Stay tuned.

[whikloj]

👍 ok now it works, if you use @dannylamb's drupal-project branch.
