Acquia Dev Desktop

Basic Setup

Download and install the lastest Acquia Dev Desktop.

You may also want to add this alias to your ~/.bashrc to make running drush easier:

alias drush="/C/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/DevDesktop/drush/drush.bat"

Copy a site from a remote host to Dev Desktop

First, create a site in your local Dev Desktop to sync with the remote site.

Then log in to the remote host and dump the database for the remote site:

d7_dump.sh /srv/example

The resulting database dump will be stored at at /srv/example/db/drupal_docs_dump.sql. Copy it to your local computer by doing something like:

rsync -rv $HOSTNAME:/srv/example/db/drupal_docs_dump.sql /C/Users/jdoe/Sites/db

Copy the themes, modules and libraries:

rsync -rv $HOSTNAME:/srv/example/drupal/sites/all /C/Users/jdoe/Sites/acquia/example/sites 

Next, copy the content files from the remote site to your local site:

rsync -rv $HOSTNAME:/srv/example/default/files  /C/Users/jdoe/Sites/aquia/example/sites/defualt
