One of the problems that Drush solves for developers is the automation and optimization of routine tasks. Drush commands attempt to speed up workflows and tasks that developers and site maintainers would otherwise have to do manually through the UI, or run one-by-one via the command line. One of those tasks is the process of deploying changes to a Drupal application from one environment to another.
The typical Drupal deployment process consists of repeatable steps such as importing configuration changes, applying database updates, and clearing the cache. Drush comes with the handy drush deploy
command that allows you to automate the execution of all of these tasks post code deployment.
In this tutorial we'll:
- Learn about the
drush deploy
command - Discuss when you would use the
deploy
command
By the end of this tutorial you'll know how to use the drush deploy
command in conjunction with other useful deployment-related commands to help automate the task of deploying changes to a Drupal site's configuration and code.
