Talking Drupal's first episode

Reflecting on 400

by Stephen Cross

On May 30, 2013, I sat behind a microphone with four friends and talked about Drupal. Four hundred episodes later, the Talking Drupal podcast is stronger than ever. The show is different and still the same. Over the past ten years, some of the hosts have changed, and the format has changed. But, the love for Drupal and the community has remained the same.

#010 Applying a patch with Composer

While working on your website, you found a patch that fixes your issue. Now you need to install a patch, but how?

Step 1: Install the composer patches project. “Simple patches plugin for Composer. Applies a patch from a local or remote file to any dependency installed by Composer.”

composer require cweagans/composer-patches

Step 2: Add a “patches” section to the “extra” section of your composer.json file.

{
    [...],
    "extra": {
        "patches": {
            "the/project": {
                "This is the description of the patch": "https://www.example.com/path/to/file.patch",
                "This is another patch": "https://www.example.com/different/path/to/file.patch"
            }
        }
    }
}

Example:

    "extra": {
        "patches": {
            "drupal/layout_paragraphs": {
                "Removes icon image thumbnail": "patches/removes-icon-from-layout-paragraph-select.patch"
            },
            "drupal/paragraphs": {
                "fixes add to library checkbox": "https://www.drupal.org/files/issues/2022-09-15/3090101-29.patch"
            },
            "drupal/core": {
                "Fixes deploy Base Field Overrides": "https://www.drupal.org/files/issues/2019-12-24/2321071-39.patch"
            },
            "drupal/entity_reference_revisions": {
                "Fixes isue of not changing non-tranlatable fields" : "https://www.drupal.org/files/issues/2020-06-09/3150084_2.patch"
            }
        },
