cap-drupal-multisite

Various capistrano tasks to deploy and maintain drupal sites.

It currently only works with Drupal 7.x and Capistrano 3.x.

Features:

• Specify and upload settings.php file for each site and stage.
• Automatically symlinking files and private directory for each site.
• Integration of some basic Drush tasks.
• Synchronize assets and database.

Installation

Add it as gem to Gemfile:

source 'https://rubygems.org'
group :development do
    gem "capistrano", '~> 3.3.5'
    gem "capistrano-ext"
    gem 'cap-drupal-multisite'
end

Install using 'bundle':

bundle install

Configuration

Add the following line to your Capfile:

require 'capistrano-drupal-multisite'

Add the following configuration to your config/deploy.rb:

# Path to drupal installation inside the release directory
set :drupal_path, "public"
# List of all sites in the sites directory
set :drupal_sites, %w{default site2}
# Group owner of the assets files
set :drupal_group, "www-data"

You have to specify an own settings.php file for each site and each stage like:

config/<stage>/settings.<site>.php

You also have to specify an own sites.php for each stage like:

config/<stage>/sites.php

Usage

Add to following additional optional deploy hooks to your config/deploy.rb:

namespace :deploy do
    after :publishing, "drupal:cache_clear"     # clears all caches
    after :publishing, "drupal:updatedb"        # updates all databases
    after :publishing, "drupal:feature_revert"  # reverts all features
end
