Rebranding notice!

Acquia announces rebranding of its “Acquia CMS” offering, which includes a collection of Drupal modules. “Acquia CMS” is now referred to as “Drupal Starter Kits”.

This page describes how to develop a Drupal site in your local system or Cloud IDE by using Drupal Starter Kits. It also explains how to deploy the site to environments running on Cloud Next technologies.

Prerequisites

To deploy code changes from your local system to Cloud Next, you must install Acquia CLI. For more information, see Acquia CLI installation. However, if you are using Cloud IDE, you do not need to install Acquia CLI as it is pre-installed in Cloud IDE.

Developing your Drupal site by using Drupal Starter Kits

After you install Drupal Starter Kits by using one of the available starter kits, you can start developing your Drupal site.

To develop your Drupal Starter Kits-flavored Drupal site from your local system or Cloud IDE:

Configure the settings.php file
Set up the Cloud Next Git remote
Commit code to the branch

Configuring the settings.php file

To configure the settings.php file:

Make the settings.php writable.

Remove the following code snippet:

$databases['default']['default'] = array (
      'database' => 'drupal',
      'username' => 'drupal',
      'password' => 'drupal',
      'prefix' => '',
      'host' => '127.0.0.1',
      'port' => '3306',
      'namespace' => 'Drupal\\mysql\\Driver\\Database\\mysql',
      'driver' => 'mysql',
      'autoload' => 'core/modules/mysql/src/Driver/Database/mysql/',
      );

Add the following require line:
```
if (file_exists('/var/www/site-php')) {
require '/var/www/site-php/eejohngalvin/eejohngalvin-settings.inc';
}
```
You can get this require line from the Cloud Platform user interface.
Obtaining require line

To set up the Cloud Next Git remote:

Run the following commands sequentially:
```
git init
git remote add origin <remote_URL>
```
Setting remote
Note
- You can skip the git init command in Cloud IDE.
- To obtain the remote URL in the Cloud Platform user interface, click View Git Information.

Committing code to the branch
