Drupal 8 has /vendor folder and Buildpack fails

[devekko]

I managed to get Drupal 7, Wordpress 4, Joomla 3.45 to installation stage on Devstep

BUT Drupal 8 fails, its got a vendor folder and the Devstep PHP Buildpack logic fails an already existing vendor folder

==> Creating container using 'fgrehm/devstep:v0.4.0'
-----> Building project at '/workspace' with the following buildpacks:
- /opt/devstep/buildpacks/php
-----> Building with /opt/devstep/buildpacks/php
/workspace/vendor cant be a directory

is there a way around this?

can I use alternative Buildpacks in Devstep?

I was looking at the list of Buildpacks in Tsuru and Herokuish and did some simple compares

Not from the top of my head, sorry. I'm planning to dedicate some time for devstep at some point this month and will look into this before giving you a final answer.

Sure, see http://fgrehm.viewdocs.io/devstep/buildpacks/custom/ for more 🍻

awesome

was wondering how devstep will deal with two PHP buildpacks

can I turn the devstep default internal one off?

[fgrehm]

You can mount the buildpack on top of devstep's default one 😏

ok, will try this in coming weeks...

Now I remember, is Drupal's vendor dir the place where composer's dependencies are kept?

looks like it is, lemme see if I can squeeze in a fix for it for 1.0

[devekko]

yes, I think you are correct to assume that, but its Drupal 8 and I am not exactly sure how they work with composer, the composer.json doesnt reference those libs so, maybe they are placed into the tree some other Drupal-y way
