This is a quick guide on how to get a D8 site running on DigitalOcean

  1. Spin up a D8 droplet
  2. ssh into the IP address assigned: ssh root@IPADDRESS

  3. Install PHP 7.x

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php7.1-fpm php7.1-curl php7.1-gd php7.1-xml php7.1-mysql
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/drupal

  4. Once in the nginx hosts file change the following

    #fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.1-fpm.sock;
  5. reboot the server or restart nginx, either or works.
  6. If you are deploying a repo from github, add a ssh key with: ssh-keygen -t rsa and paste the public key into the repos → settings → deploy keys section.  reboot the server.

  7. Install composer with:

    php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
php -r "if (hash_file('SHA384', 'composer-setup.php') === '55d6ead61b29c7bdee5cccfb50076874187bd9f21f65d8991d46ec5cc90518f447387fb9f76ebae1fbbacf329e583e30') { echo 'Installer verified'; } else { echo 'Installer corrupt'; unlink('composer-setup.php'); } echo PHP_EOL;"
php composer-setup.php
php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"
mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
  8. Install Drush
    1. Edit your ~/.bashrc and put this at the end: export PATH="$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH" and exit out of the server then ssh back in
    2. Run this command: composer global require drush/drush
