config_suite

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.
