drush

Is there any mechanism to use drush with a hosting service that does not support the use of public key authentication?

thanks

When I sync from my Staging system to the Production system, content created on the production system (such as a new node) is lost.
What are methods for using drush rsync and drush sql-sync to avoid overwriting content?
Is there some way to specify to not overwrite nodes/comments created/modified by me? (As I'm the only user on the Staging system.) Any other processes/methods?

Hi there!

Im running a Mac OS X Lion and I migrated my user account to a new one, the old one was very slow and I had a hard time figuring out what was happening there. So I migrated to a new user account, updated MAMP and and tried to run drush. MAMP is going good, everything works (mysql is on, php is on, my sites on drupal run as well).

Now, everytime i run drush i get this in my terminal

"Warning: require_once(/usr/bin/includes/environment.inc): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/bin/drush.php on line 26

I had the pleasure of being introduced to drush at this past meetup, and wanted to provide some detail that might serve someone else.

I run a MacBook Pro, and MAMP as a local development server.

I followed Mike's recommendation of using a path alias to the actual drush directory, so that it would be accessible from Terminal:

I placed the uncompressed drush directory in:
/Users/ben/Applications/
and ran the alias script, following Mike's recommended course of action:

Hello all,

Just wanted to let you know that I've pushed a new drush command to this github repository.

What it does is generating a VirtualHost section for the Apache configuration, which allows you to easily add new virtual hosts to your system.

It saves me some time, hope you'll find it useful too.

Thanks for your attention, looking forward for comments and suggestions.

So in the process of updating my development site, a new module has been installed. One of my previously installed modules has since become dependent on this new module.

So to get this on to my live/staging site, I use version control to update so that it has the same code as my dev site.
Now I have an issue, I need to enable that new module.

I could simply enable the module manually in drush, but there could be several modules, and I may accidentally miss one.

Hello,

I've just set up a github repo with a couple of drush extra commands for provinding secure and compressed SQL dumps.

The secure version uses openssl for encrypting the compressed dump. I thought this might be of use to someone, and who knows, the drush team can find it interesting enough to be included in the official release ;)

Thanks,
António

I am working on a site that does a lot of importing data from external sources, and I want to write some drush commands to do this. In looking around, I haven't been able to find any documentation for writing drush commands, such as the available hooks, format and return values for each hook, etc., other that looking at existing code. Once I get everything figured out I will write some documentation (either blog posts or handbook pages), but I don't want to reinvent the wheel if I don't need to (it's very possible I just didn't search well enough).

We have just donated 50 hour of FREE drupal development time to develop http://talabarowari.co.in a Hindu community web site as part of our yearly promise of 100 hour of FREE drupal development time to non-profit org.

We have used the following modules to develop the site.
- Context,
- Ctools
- CCK
- Views
- Features
- Exportables
- Lightbox2
- path-auto

We have created on drush-make file to create a distro and one install profile to installation.
