Drupal’s “Recipes” Feature Simplifies Site Settings and Customizations: Mochiya Blog Explains

Recipes

The Mochiya blog’s latest entry in the Drupal Advent Calendar 2024 introduces readers to one of Drupal 11’s standout features: "Recipes." This new addition allows site builders to streamline site development by specifying pre-defined YAML files that automatically configure site settings, user roles, content types, and workflows.

The blog post walks through the process of using and customizing the "editorial_workflow" recipe, one of the default options available in Drupal 11’s "/core/recipes" directory. The feature aims to make it easier for developers to build sites with consistent configurations.

To demonstrate its utility, the article outlines how to set up a local development environment using Lando, install Drush, and apply a recipe via CLI. A step-by-step guide shows how to customize the default "editorial_workflow" to create a "custom_editorial" workflow with Japanese language support.

While the Recipes feature shows promise, the blog notes some limitations, such as compatibility issues with earlier Drupal versions and the current limited availability of pre-built recipes. However, as more recipes become available, the tool is expected to play a significant role in streamlining Drupal site development.
