Hosting project on Pantheon

Hosting platforms differ from each other and we have to take some actions before being compatible with Pantheon. Here they are.

Install Terminus

Open the <PROJECT_DIR>/.cikit/roles/cikit-project/meta/main.yml and add the cikit-pantheon-terminus role under the dependencies:

dependencies:
  - role: cikit-pantheon-terminus
    tags: ["terminus"]

Configure hosting

Create the pantheon.yml file in the <PROJECT_DIR> following the official documentation. Add custom properties: site, user.token (read more how to create tokens at https://dashboard.pantheon.io/user#account/tokens/create/terminus) and user.email.

# Custom properties.
site: dp844aa6-8f67-45a1-9dea-a2335347c0bd
# This user will be used by Terminus.
user:
  email: [email protected]
  token: mAcRd9ZiUo1GPyPyWpiX2Ey-lKNyZzaWUYYGGpwlvylPn

Inject Pantheon configuration

Open the <PROJECT_DIR>/scripts/vars/main.yml and add the pantheon: "{{ lookup('file', '../pantheon.yml') | from_yaml }}" variable.
Provision VM/CI server as usual.
