Tools

Version Control

Go to the webroot and run "git version"

Drush

Try running drush in the webroot; if it exists, "drush version"

Directory Structure

Files Directory Size

Run

du -h files

; this gives you total size at the bottom along with size on other directories/files.

You can run du -h files | sort -h to see the list sorted with the biggest items at the bottom. 

It may be worth it to see what size is with imagestyle/imagecache directories excluded:

du -h --exclude=styles

Database Size

Run

 then du -h db_backup.sql

or

Run the following query that lists the sizes of all the available databases.

SELECT table_schema AS "Database", 
ROUND(SUM(data_length + index_length) / 1024 / 1024, 2) AS "Size (MB)" 
FROM information_schema.TABLES 
GROUP BY table_schema;

Other “Files Directories”

See if any other large files exist in the codebase; particularly in the root of the codebase.

find . -type f -size +1G

To see if the site has any files too large for Pantheon:

find web/sites/default/files -type f -size +256M

Codebase Structure

Are there non-standard directories? Is all custom code in

web/modules (or appropriate multisite

directories)?

Multisite

See if directories exist for multisite in sites/

Non-Drupal Code

Custom scripts are often found in the root of the codebase, check there and feel around a bit

 Codebase

Contrib Codebase Quality

Run hacked module if possible. How are patches documented?

Custom Codebase Quality

Is the Drupal API used well?

Theme Layer Code

Is the Drupal API used well? Are templates misused (tons of PHP in templates instead of

preprocess functions)?

Contributed Modules

With drush installed run this command:

drush pml --no-core --type=module --status=enabled

Content Types

Run either:

echo "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM node_type" | drush sqlc

OR

$ mysql -uusername -ppassword databasename
> SELECT COUNT(*) FROM node_type;

In Drupal 9:

drush ev "print_r(array_keys(\Drupal\node\Entity\NodeType::loadMultiple()));"

Views

Run either:

echo "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM views_view" | drush sqlc

OR

$ mysql -uusername -ppassword databasename
> SELECT COUNT(*) FROM views_view;

On D6 you can get the list of all views code and db from the views_cache table with the following query:

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `cache_views`
WHERE cid LIKE 'views_default:%';

The query only shows views that are not in code. The best solution on D7 and up is to use drush:

drush views-list --status=enabled

This will

give you a summary at the end of both code and db views.

Taxonomy

In D6 you can get a table list of Vocabularies, # of terms, and content types used on with the following query:

SELECT v.name, COUNT(DISTINCT td.tid) as '# of terms', CONCAT_WS(', ', vnt.type) as 'used on'
FROM
  vocabulary v
  LEFT JOIN term_data td ON v.vid = td.vid
  LEFT JOIN vocabulary_node_types vnt ON v.vid = vnt.vid
GROUP BY v.name
ORDER BY v.vid ASC;

User roles

In D6 display list of roles and users per role

SELECT r.name, COUNT(ur.uid) as 'users'
FROM
  role r
  LEFT JOIN users_roles ur ON r.rid = ur.rid
GROUP BY r.name

How to find

Response Times

Server Response

This will vary between requests; for a quick idea, load the page in question with the Network tab open and

the browser cache disabled and see how long it takes for the initial request of the HTML document to be

returned.

Render time

How long does it take for the webpage to actually render? This is best represented by the red line in the Google

Network tab, which represents the "load" js event (when all images, stylesheets, js files, and other assets

are loaded). The blue line represents the DOMContentLoaded event and is less important for our purposes.

Google Page Speed

What's the PageSpeed Insights score for the URL you're investigating? Use the mobile speed and the desktop

speed (mobile/desktop) in the audit.

Performance Config

Image Optimization

Is the site effectively using image styles to make sure that images are an appropriate size? Bonus points if they

have a system in place to handle responsive images.

Current, but this could benefit from going into depth on some more automated auditing tools, as well as updates to Kalamuna’s process.
