Coozila Media News is based on the [https://github.com/thunder/thunder-distribution](Thunder distribution) and is basically maintained by the Coozila Media News package which handles all module dependencies.

You can create a new Coozila Media News project with the following command. composer create-project coozila/media-news:dev-master news --no-interaction

Make sure that the synced configuration in your project repository is up to date with the production database. Otherwise you might end up with undesired results.

To update the Coozila Media News codebase use the following composer command. composer update "drupal/core*" thunder/thunder-distribution coozila/news -W.

Coozila Media News tags releases using semantic versioning. This composer template installs Coozila Media News with the recent major version, e.g. ^1.0. If there is a new major version released, you need to bump this version to e.g. ^1.0.

After each update of the Coozila Media News codebase you should run drush updb.

Export the configuration with drush cex.

Deploy the changes to the server and run drush updb also there. This is required because module updates might also perform non-configuration related changes. After that drush cs should result in a clean configuration.
