Get Drush command line support for CiviCRM
Using Drush with Drupal is standard practice for most developers, but since CiviCRM support was removed, many find themselves having to switch between separate command-line tools for each environment.
Seeing a need for continued Drush support in CiviCRM, Skvare’s developers released the CiviCRM Drush module for Drupal 8 and Drupal 9. Just as with Drupal, this module allows developers to support CiviCRM through a single command-line tool and continue previously established workflows.
Once installed and configured, the CiviCRM Drush module supports many commonly used commands:
| civicrm:api (cvapi) | CLI access to CiviCRM APIs. |
| civicrm:db-validate | Valid CiviCRM Database. |
| civicrm:disable-debug | Disable CiviCRM Debugging. |
| civicrm:enable-debug | Enable CiviCRM Debugging. |
| civicrm:ext-disable (ced) | Disable a CiviCRM extension. |
| civicrm:ext-install (cei) | Install a CiviCRM extension. |
| civicrm:ext-list (cel | List of CiviCRM extensions enabled. |
| civicrm:ext-uninstall (ceui) | Uninstall a CiviCRM extension. |
| civicrm:member-records | Run the CiviMember UpdateMembershipRecord cron (civicrm-member-records). |
