Config Suite
Config Suite is a set of tools designed to simplify working with Drupal's configuration system. It automatically imports configuration when a page is loaded and exports configuration changes whenever a form is saved, eliminating the need for manual Drush commands. Additionally, it allows configuration to be reused between different sites, resolving UUID mismatch errors.
Config Suite is a set of improvements to the core config system that eases the experience of working with configuration.
Config Suite now has three big features that will change the way you do Drupal site building.
Automatic Configuration Import
You'll never need import configuration again. Drush config-import (Drush cim). Simply update your sync folder with a git pull, or some other way to manage your files. Then load a page as an admin. That's it! Configuration imported. There's a slight delay during the import, but when there's no import needed, it's lightning fast.
Automatic Configuration Export
You'll never need to use drush config-export (drush cex) again. Simply save a form and the files in your config sync folder update.
Config Suite automatically exports when you change it by listening for the config save event. It takes configuration out of the database and puts it into the file system with no manual steps.
Reuse Configuration Between Sites
Config Suite allows you to reuse configuration created in one site in a new site with a different UUID. This fixes:
"Site UUID in source storage does not match the target storage."
Thanks
Special Thanks to Maria Fisher and Sam Mortenson for some amazing code to make Config Suite possible.
Project Goals
This project goal is to make configuration easier to reuse, edit, and deploy.
