Drool THE Drupal Tool

Hi,

durch Zufall gefunden.

Drool is a command-line tool for managing drupal websites on a server. Drool automates the mundane tasks of managing Drupal websites on a server and also offers a few more novel features, which include:

• Creating new sites
• Installing modules and themes directly from drupal.org
• Hosting multiple Drupal versions
• Cloning one drupal site to another - handy when you don't want to start a site from scratch.
• Packing up whole sites (e.g. configuration and data) into single file packages that can be shipped across and unpacked onto another server.
• Rapid theme design by automated skinning of images (i.e. chopping/slicing them up for css scaling) onto a special drool theme. For example, you can draw an image for a block, skin it; draw an image for the page, skin it; draw an image for the header/footer, skin it. By definition, the applied skins will stretch to hold dynamic content (e.g. a wide/narrow, long/short side-bar block/page/header/footer/user-specified regions).

In practice, the command looks something like this:

• drool new www.sitex.com
• drool clone www.anothersite.com www.sitex.com
• drool skin www.somesite.org.uk footer myfooterimage.png
