Provide some documentation for common V1 operations

[kopeboy]

I cd to my site (kalabox/www/mysite) and run drush en a_module:
"Command pm-enable needs a higher bootstrap level to run ..."

I searched online and in your wiki but couldn't find a guide to use drush, only Terminatur for a Pantheon-downloaded site. What if I want to use drush on a local site, and later upload the site to Pantheon?

Instead, drush dl a_module works

[pirog]

using drush should be the same. have you checked this out at all?
https://www.drupal.org/node/757386

[kopeboy]

Yes I checked that and tried all propesed solutions without success. There are many different posts spanning 4 years and I am not sure will apply to the Kalabox stack or my mac configuration (I had worked also with bitnami-drupal recently, maybe something is conflicting upon drush?).

Solution #4 & #6 & #7 : I cd to /Users/me/kalabox/www/mysite and run drush en mymodule there, isn't that correct? Also doing cd /Users/me/kalabox/www/mysite/sites/all/modules and drush -y en mymodule o drush en mymodule returns the same error.
Solution #8 : run those commands and/or edited 'localhost' to '127.0.0.1' in settings.php, no success.
Solution #10 : edited bash-profile like suggested, nothing changed.

Should I mention my bash.profile is like this:
. ~/.bashrc
source ~/.profile
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" # Load RVM$
export PATH=/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/:$PATH

and that when I run drush en mymodule the error returns also this:

Drush was attempting to connect to:
Drupal version : 7.30
Site URI : http://default
Database driver : mysql
Database username : root
Database name : mysite_kala
Default theme : garland

PHP executable : /usr/bin/php
PHP configuration :

ohhhh i see what you are doing. so you can def run drush externally on your mac but you may need to create better aliases to help facilitate that.

generally when i run drush i will click on the ssh button the kalabox dash and run commands from there. the sites are in /var/www.

[kopeboy]

I don't have a www folder inside /var ... :O

If I click on the SSH button what should I do next? Typing ls I can only see one of my sites which was created on Pantheon.

Thanks for you support :(

[pirog]

/var/www should be be in kalabox so you will need to click SSH first. Once
you get in do something like

cd /var/www
ls -lsa

To see call your sites and then you can just cd into a site and you should
be able to use your drush commands right there.

3 > 1 for sure!

[pirog]

oh wait is that actually 2? i must be drunk already.

[kopeboy]

Ok, I am very sorry for having spammed in your issue queue lately. I think you really need to write some documentation for 'noobs' like me, and I would like to help but I don't think I am the right one to do it :(
Enjoy the beers (11pm here)

[pirog]

No worries! Issue reports make the project better for everybody. If you want to list maybe the top five things that would be good for us to include in documentation that would be super helpful!

[kopeboy]

I would start with:

1. How to use drush (from SSH and CDing in the right directory)

2. How to export my kalabox site (especially on Pantheon): you can download with 1 click from Pantheon but how do you upload back? And what to do if instead the site was created on Kalabox? Something has been written here http://helpdesk.getpantheon.com/customer/portal/articles/361251 but the mysql dump doesn't work out of the box

Will update when I find more difficulties :)

[pirog]

Perfect! That is all really helpful.

I'm going to change the issue here and open to reflect the need for documentation and hopefully we can get someone on this ASAP!

@reynoldsalec @andrewmallis wont be around tomorrow for comday but this should be a priority and shouldnt take too long!

Temporarily assigning to @andrewmallis, let me know if you don't have time for this and I'll knock it out.

Provided drush instructions, need to write up some Pantheon export instructions: https://github.com/kalamuna/kalabox/wiki/Using-Kalabox-V1:-Drush---Exporting-Sites

[pirog]

Awesome! @kopeboy feel free to review all these docs we are posting to make sure they are helpful!
