Drupal 8 module for use with Smithsonian Open Source Search
- Clone the repository or download the source
- Copy the files to your Drupal website, i.e. create the directory /sites/all/modules/custom/ossearch_simple and copy the files from the root of this repository into that directory.
- Enable the module.
- Use the block admin to add one or more custom searches to pages
Since this module isn't published as a package to a repository, using composer to install the module necessitates modifying the root composer.json file for the site.
Option 1 is to add the module as a package by adding an entry to repositories:[] (see below) and running composer require drupal/ossearch_simple:
"repositories": [
{
"type": "composer",
"url": "https://packages.drupal.org/8"
},
{
"type": "package",
"package": {
"name": "drupal/ossearch_simple",
"version": "1.0.0",
"type": "drupal-custom-module",
"source": {
"url": "https://github.com/couloir007/ossearch_simple.git",
"type": "git",
"reference": "master"
}
}
}
],
Option 2 is to install by adding the location of the module as an additional repository and downloading the module to that location, e.g. 2nd entry here:
"repositories": [
{
"type": "composer",
"url": "https://packages.drupal.org/8"
},
{
"type": "path",
"url": "/path/to/modulefiles/ossearch_simple"
}
],
