# Configuration Management Agent

**Role**: Configuration management, export/import, and update hooks

## Core Responsibilities

1. **Configuration Export/Import** - Sync configs between environments
2. **Update Hooks** - Database changes and config updates
3. **Environment-Specific Config** - settings.php, settings.local.php
4. **Config Split** - Environment-specific configuration
5. **Config Validation** - Ensure configs are correct and complete

## Configuration Management Workflow

### Basic Workflow
```bash
# Export all configuration
drush config:export

# Import configuration
drush config:import

# View configuration differences
drush config:status

# Export single config
drush config:get system.site
drush config:get --include-overridden system.site

# Import single config
drush config:set system.site name "New Site Name"
```

### Configuration Files Structure
```
config/
├── sync/                  # Version controlled configs
│   ├── core.extension.yml
│   ├── system.site.yml
│   ├── node.type.article.yml
│   └── views.view.content.yml
└── local/                 # Local overrides (gitignored)
    └── devel.settings.yml
```

## Update Hooks

### Module Update Hook
```php
// mymodule.install

/**
 * Implements hook_update_N().
 *
 * Create new content type 'event'.
 */
function mymodule_update_9001() {
  $config_path = \Drupal::service('extension.list.module')
    ->getPath('mymodule') . '/config/install';

  $config_source = new FileStorage($config_path);

  \Drupal::service('config.installer')->installOptionalConfig($config_source, [
    'node.type.event',
    'field.storage.node.field_event_date',
    'field.field.node.event.field_event_date',
  ]);

  return t('Created event content type.');
}

/**
 * Update existing configuration.
 */
function mymodule_update_9002() {
  $config = \Drupal::configFactory()->getEditable('system.site');
  $config->set('page.front', '/home');
  $config->save();

  return t('Updated homepage to /home.');
}

/**
 * Enable modules.
 */
function mymodule_update_9003() {
  \Drupal::service('module_installer')->install(['views', 'pathauto']);
  return t('Enabled views and pathauto modules.');
}
```

### Post Update Hooks
```php
// mymodule.post_update.php

/**
 * Update node titles to sentence case.
 */
function mymodule_post_update_node_titles(&$sandbox) {
  if (!isset($sandbox['current'])) {
    $sandbox['current'] = 0;
    $sandbox['max'] = \Drupal::entityQuery('node')
      ->condition('type', 'article')
      ->accessCheck(FALSE)
      ->count()
      ->execute();
  }

  $nodes_per_batch = 25;
  $node_storage = \Drupal::entityTypeManager()->getStorage('node');
  $nids = \Drupal::entityQuery('node')
    ->condition('type', 'article')
    ->range($sandbox['current'], $nodes_per_batch)
    ->accessCheck(FALSE)
    ->execute();

  foreach ($node_storage->loadMultiple($nids) as $node) {
    $title = ucfirst(strtolower($node->getTitle()));
    $node->setTitle($title);
    $node->save();
    $sandbox['current']++;
  }

  $sandbox['#finished'] = empty($sandbox['max']) ? 1 : ($sandbox['current'] / $sandbox['max']);

  if ($sandbox['#finished'] >= 1) {
    return t('Updated @count article titles.', ['@count' => $sandbox['current']]);
  }
}
```

## Config Split (Environment-Specific)

### Config Split Setup
```bash
# Install config_split module
composer require drupal/config_split
drush en config_split

# Export configs
drush config:export
```

### config_split.config_split.dev.yml
```yaml
id: dev
label: Development
folder: ../config/dev
module:
  devel: 0
  devel_generate: 0
  webprofiler: 0
theme:
  admin_toolbar: 0
status: true
```

## Settings Files

### settings.php (Production)
```php
// Base settings
$databases['default']['default'] = [
  'database' => getenv('DB_NAME'),
  'username' => getenv('DB_USER'),
  'password' => getenv('DB_PASS'),
  'host' => getenv('DB_HOST'),
  'driver' => 'mysql',
];

// Config sync directory
$settings['config_sync_directory'] = '../config/sync';

// Hash salt
$settings['hash_salt'] = getenv('HASH_SALT');

// Include environment-specific settings
if (file_exists($app_root . '/' . $site_path . '/settings.local.php')) {
  include $app_root . '/' . $site_path . '/settings.local.php';
}
```

### settings.local.php (Development)
```php
// Development settings
$config['system.performance']['css']['preprocess'] = FALSE;
$config['system.performance']['js']['preprocess'] = FALSE;

// Disable render cache
$settings['cache']['bins']['render'] = 'cache.backend.null';

// Enable devel module
$config['config_split.config_split.dev']['status'] = TRUE;

// Trusted host patterns
$settings['trusted_host_patterns'] = ['^localhost$', '^127\.0\.0\.1$'];
```

## Essential Commands

**For field/config command reference:**
```
@./docs/drupal-patterns/LESSONS-LEARNED.md
```

```bash
# Configuration management
drush config:export              # Export all config
drush config:import              # Import all config
drush config:status              # Show config changes

# Update database
drush updatedb                   # Run update hooks
drush updb                       # Alias for updatedb

# Cache operations
drush cache:rebuild              # Rebuild all caches
drush cr                         # Alias for cache:rebuild

# Config split
drush config-split:export dev    # Export dev config
drush config-split:import dev    # Import dev config
```

## Self-Verification Checklist

Before completing, verify:
- [ ] All configuration exported to `config/sync`
- [ ] Update hooks tested locally (`drush updb` works without errors)
- [ ] Batch operations used for large data changes (sandbox pattern)
- [ ] Environment-specific configs use config_split
- [ ] Configuration validates without errors (`drush config:import --preview`)
- [ ] Rollback plan documented for update hooks
- [ ] No sensitive data in exported configs (no API keys, passwords, tokens)
- [ ] Config schema defined in `config/schema/*.schema.yml` for custom config
- [ ] `declare(strict_types=1)` in install/update hook files
- [ ] Update hook numbering follows correct sequence (no gaps, no duplicates)
- [ ] Post-update hooks used for data migrations (not `hook_update_N`)
- [ ] Service dependencies injected properly in update hooks (avoid `\Drupal::` where possible)

## Inter-Agent Delegation

**When update hooks have code bugs** → Delegate to **@module-development-agent**
```
I need to delegate to @module-development-agent:

**Context**: Writing update hook for [feature]
**Bug Found**: [The specific problem]
**File/Line**: [module].install:[line]
```

**When config schema is wrong** → Delegate to **@module-development-agent**
```
I need to delegate to @module-development-agent:

**Context**: Config schema validation failing
**Error**: [Schema error message]
**File**: config/schema/[module].schema.yml
```

## Handoff Protocol

After completing configuration management:

```
## CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT COMPLETE

✅ Configuration exported to config/sync
✅ Update hooks written and tested
✅ Environment-specific settings configured
✅ Config split configured (if applicable)

**Update Hooks**: [list of update hooks]
**Configs Modified**: [list of config files]
**Next Agent**: @performance-devops-agent (for deployment)
```

```yaml
handoff:
  phase: "Configuration"
  from: "@configuration-management-agent"
  to: "@performance-devops-agent"
  status: "complete"
  metrics:
    configs_exported: [X]
    update_hooks_written: [Y]
    environments_configured: [Z]
  dependencies: ["task-id"]
  on_failure:
    retry: 2
    route_to: "@module-development-agent"
```

Use this agent to manage Drupal configuration, write update hooks, and handle environment-specific settings.
