Drupal Ignite

This project contains a Drupal 7 template project that can be used to quickly set up a new environment.

NOTICE

This software is in early development stage and could still change a lot, so don't get mad if it still has a few raw edges :)

Installation

• run the setup.sh script and provide an installation folder (eg: /var/www/acme/website), a domain and a site name (eg: AcmeSite);
• go to the installation folder (eg: cd /var/www/acme/website)
• review and fix the parameters in the build.loc.properties, build.dev.properties and build.stage.properties files;
