Set up a local 2.0.x environment
If you want to contribute to the Views: Mark Current Entity module's 2.0.x branch, this guide will help you set up a local environment for developing and testing the module.
These instructions were last tested on 2026-04-29 using:
- DDEV v1.25.2 (Drupal's official development environment)
- ddev/ddev-drupal-contrib 1.1.5
- ddev/ddev-selenium-standalone-chrome 2.1.2
Requirements
You will need a relatively modern computer that can run DDEV. The commands below assume that you are using a Bash-like shell for Linux, Mac, or Windows Subsystem for Linux.
One-time setup
The following commands set up Views: Mark Current Entity version 2.0.x for development, and the add-ons needed to run lints and tests.
git clone --branch '2.0.x' git@git.drupal.org:project/views_mark_current.git
cd views_mark_current
ddev config --auto
ddev add-on get ddev/ddev-drupal-contrib
ddev add-on get ddev/ddev-selenium-standalone-chrome
ddev start
echo '$settings["extension_discovery_scan_tests"] = TRUE;' | tee -a web/sites/default/settings.phpSetup for working on an issue
When you start working on a new issue, it is often a good idea to re-install Drupal in your development environment. This way, your previous test content and configuration won't affect the results of your current work.

Views: Mark Current Entity runs a number of linters and automated tests in CI when you submit code. Running these linters and automated tests before you submit code will make it faster to easier for maintainers to review and accept your code!
