More automation with 'fin init'

Site provisioning can be automated using fin init, which calls the shell script in .docksal/commands/init.
This script is meant to be modified per project.

Some common tasks that can be handled in the init script:

  • initialize local settings files for Docker Compose, Backdrop, Behat, etc.
  • import DB or perform a site install
  • compile Sass
  • run DB updates, revert features, clear caches, etc.
  • enable/disable modules, update variables values
  • run Behat tests

Bee command included

Backdrop has a command line utility called Bee. Bee commands can be run by calling fin bee [command].
