Drupal Console With DDEV

Question

I want to install drupal console with composer from DDEV (https://ddev.readthedocs.io/en/stable/)

No problem to install Drush with DDEV

DDEV cannot be Root.

Not populating custom commands or hostadditions because running with root privileges ddev is not designed to be run with root privileges, please run as normal user and without sudo

My command :

ddev composer update drupal/console --with-dependencies

But the response is :

Dependency "composer/installers" is also a root requirement, but is not explicitly allowed. Ignoring.

Dependency "composer/installers" is also a root requirement, but is not explicitly allowed. Ignoring.

Loading composer repositories with package information Updating dependencies (including require-dev) Nothing to install or update Package container-interop/container-interop is abandoned, you should avoid using it.

Use psr/container instead. Package doctrine/reflection is abandoned, you should avoid using it. Use roave/better-reflection instead.

Generating autoload files 44 packages you are using are looking for funding. Use the composer fund command to find out more!

For Drush I use:

ddev drush args

I would like to do

ddev drupal args

Sorry for my language.

Thanks!!:)

First, as far as I can tell Drupal Console is unmaintained and has been uninstallable or unreliable for more than a year, so the binary was removed from ddev.

However, that doesn't keep you from installing it in your project, ddev composer require drupal/console. But any errors that you get are a result of problems with Drupal Console, and don't have to do with ddev.

Now, if you'd like a custom command for Drupal Console, you can create one. Just copy ~/.ddev/commands/web/drush to ~/.ddev/commands/web/drupal and edit as you see fit. This is an example of a custom command. There are other examples in ~/.ddev/commands/web. Read about custom commands in the docs.
