Installation/Upgrade

See the installation instructions for details, but it's easy:

• Please stop all projects first, this does no harm: ddev poweroff
• If you have custom configuration, especially pinned image specifications in your .ddev/config.yaml, please remove it for now.
• macOS Homebrew and Linux Linuxbrew (ddev-edge channel only): brew install drud/ddev-edge/ddev or just brew upgrade drud/ddev-edge/ddev ). (You may need a brew update for homebrew to find the new release.)
• Windows: Use choco upgrade -y --pre ddev to get this one, or download the ddev_windows_installer below.
• And anywhere, you can just download the tarball or zipball, untar or unzip it, and place the executable in your path where it belongs.

Key Features of v1.15-alpha4

From earlier alpha releases

• Laravel support! Thanks @NBZ4live ! You can now ddev config --project-type=laravel, see Laravel quickstart
• The 'live' command allows you to use ddev live list sites and all other commands without having to install ddev-live locally.
• zsh and oh-my-zsh completions, see docs
• Integration with DDEV-Live hosting. See ddev-live integration docs for instructions to use ddev config ddev-live and ddev pull
• The ddev-live client is included inside the web container, which means that you can use it there at any time and on any platform, including Windows.
• MariaDB 10.5 support
• The default mysql collation changes to utf8mb4_general_ci
• The ddev-webserver docker image is down in size from 577MB to 417MB, 72% of its previous size, without losing any features.

Smaller changes

• ddev exec will now find binaries/scripts in /var/www/html/vendor/bin, thanks @atomicptr !
• Several small bugfixes
• ddev-webserver is marching toward using the same basic docker images as DDEV-Live uses
• ddev import-db will now ignore any USE <database> or CREATE DATABASE <database> statements in your imported database dump. For most people and most situations this is just fine, and database dumps should really never have those statements in them.

Caveats

• ddev import-db will now ignore any USE <database> or CREATE DATABASE <database> statements.
• ddev exec and exec hooks now check for errors and pipe failures by adding a set -eu -o pipefail onto the front of bash statements. It is possible that this will make exec hooks or ddev exec commands fail that should always have failed.
