Connections

Connections can be used to connect to external systems when gathering data.

Database

After a connection is defined in the connections section of the config file, it can be used in facts in the collect section for plugins that support them.

connections:
  drupal-db:
    mysql:
      host: mariadb
      user: drupal
      password: drupal
      database: drupal

collect:
  domain-in-tables:
    database:search:
      connection: drupal-db
      search: "%.example.com%"
      id-field: entity_id

See the full example here (opens new window).

Docker container

connections:
  docker-cli:
    docker:exec:
      container: test-shipshape

collect:
  tfa-config:
    docker:command:
      connection: docker-cli
      command: ["/app/vendor/bin/drush", "config:get", "tfa.settings"]
  tfa-status:
    yaml:key:
      input: tfa-config
      path: enabled
