Overview of this book

Learning Drupal can be challenging because of its robust, extensible, and powerful capability for digital experiences, making it difficult for beginners to grasp and use it for application development. If you’re looking to break into Drupal with hands-on knowledge, this Drupal 10 Masterclass is for you. With this book, you’ll gain a thorough knowledge of Drupal by understanding its core concepts, including its technical architecture, frontend, backend, framework, and latest features. Equipped with foundational knowledge, you’ll bootstrap and install your first project with expert guidance on maintaining Drupal applications. Progressively, you’ll build applications using Drupal’s core features such as content structures, multilingual support, users, roles, Views, search, and digital assets. You’ll discover techniques for developing modules and themes and harness Drupal’s robust content management through layout builder, blocks, and content workflows. The book familiarizes you with prominent tools such as Git, Drush, and Composer for code deployments and DevOps practices for Drupal application management. You’ll also explore advanced use cases for content migration and multisite implementation, extending your application’s capabilities. By the end of this book, you’ll not only have learned how to build a successful Drupal application but may also find yourself contributing to the Drupal community.

Best practices

Maintaining Drupal has several best practices that can help promote efficacy and ease maintenance.

Backups

Before performing any maintenance, ensure environments are effectively backed up. While the aforementioned Drush commands are capable of exporting databases or downloading files, backups are often offered by platform hosting providers. Some providers have policies to perform automated backups periodically. Doing so can help ensure quick and effective restoration should there be an issue.

Restoring Drupal can be performed with a series of commands. Releases of a specific Drupal application often correspond to tags in Git. As an example, suppose there was an issue with the deployment of the application’s 1.1.20 release. The following example restores Git tag 1.1.19 and loads the database from a backup.sql file:

$ cd my_directory
$ git fetch –all
$ git reset –hard 1.1.19
$ cd web
$ ../vendor/bin/drush sql:cli < backup.sql
$ ../vendor...
