Thank you for attending my Sculpin talk at BrumPHP.
[The slides and a previous recording](/talks/building-static-websites-sculpin) are on the talk page.
To see an example of a Sculpin project, you can see [the source code for this website](https://github.com/opdavies/oliverdavies.uk) or [my demo for PHP South West](https://github.com/opdavies/phpsw-sculpin-demo).
If you want to try Sculpin, you can use [the Sculpin Skeleton project I created](https://github.com/opdavies/sculpin-skeleton) as a starting point for new projects.
## Can we work together?
As well as building static websites with Sculpin, I do consulting and advisory work using other PHP projects - namely, Drupal and Symfony.
I offer [unlimited monthly Drupal consulting](/consulting), [1-on-1 consultation calls](/call) and [pair programming sessions](/pair) to get people unstuck, and fixed prices (not estimates) for development work.
## Are you stuck on Drupal 7, 8 or 9?
Drupal 7 will be end-of-life and no longer supported as of the 5th of January, 2025.
Drupal 8 and 9 are already unsupported.
If you have an outdated Drupal website and want to know more about upgrading to Drupal 10, [book your upgrade roadmap](/drupal-upgrade) and I'll help you get there.
## Stay in touch
The best way to stay in touch with me is my [email list](/daily) to which I send daily emails about Drupal and software development.
All emails are sent from my personal email address, so you can press reply and contact me directly.

**Sprint zero in a box.**
All of my projects contain similar build configuration files, such as Docker and Docker Compose files, PHPUnit and PHPStan configuration, and CI/CD pipeline workflows. I used to maintain these manually which was time-intensive and there was no guarantee that the same features or options were available from project to project.
Build Configs is a tool I've written to maintain a canonical set of templates and generate them for each project based on a per-project configuration file.
This makes it quicker and easier for me to create or onboard new projects to work on and, as all of the base files are centralised, when I fix something or add a new feature, the changes can be pushed to every project that uses it.
I've been using this on personal projects such as my [Drupal](https://github.com/opdavies/docker-example-drupal), [LocalGov Drupal](https://github.com/opdavies/docker-example-drupal-localgov) and [Drupal Commerce Kickstart](https://github.com/opdavies/docker-example-drupal-commerce-kickstart) Docker examples and for various client projects.
## How does it work?
- I create a `build.yaml` file for the project that contains its configuration - what version of PHP it needs, which web server to use, which paths to run automated tests from or static analysis on, etc.
- I run the `build-configs` tool which generates the required files, such as a Dockerfile, Docker Compose file, PHPStan and PHPUnit configuration files, and a `run` script for automating project commands.
- The files are committed to version control and pushed to your code repository (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, etc).
- As I add new features or make changes, I will re-run the process to re-generate the files and push any changes - ensuring you’re always up to date.
## What are some of the recent new features?
* Adding additional databases for working with migrations or multi-site projects.
* Adding additional `run` tasks.
* Adding CI pipelines with GitHub Actions to run automated quality checks.
* Creating and running Git hooks to run automated checks before changes are pushed.
## Example
In this short video, I show how Build Configs works by creating a new Drupal 10 project, generating its configuration files, and opening it in a browser.
From nothing to a ready-to-work-on Drupal website in less than a minute.
{% include 'youtube-video.html.twig' with { id: 'LkhsdmxReUc'} %}
## Options
### Initial project setup - £{{ page.products.0.price|number_format() }}
To get your project started on the right foot, I will create a new Drupal project skeleton for you using `build-configs` that is ready to work on, including all of the generated files. You can even edit them if you like as they will get no ongoing updates.
{% include 'button.html.twig' with {
text: page.products.0.buttonText,
url: page.products.0.link,
} %}
### Ongoing updates and support (single site) - £{{ page.products.1.price|number_format }} per month
Once you have a project with `build-configs`, if you want to receive ongoing updates to the generated files, I can automatically refresh your files once changes are available and push them to your code repository.
This also includes unlimited support via a dedicated Slack channel and you can make feature requests for me to consider adding to the roadmap.
If you like, I can add you to a beta users list and you’ll get new experimental features before anyone else.
{% include 'button.html.twig' with {
text: page.products.1.buttonText,
url: page.products.1.link,
} %}
If you have multiple Drupal sites, [contact me](/contact) and we can work something out.
### Retro-fitting into an existing project
`build-configs` can also be added to an existing project. It can be tricky and will be different from project to project so [contact me](/contact) and we can discuss it further.
Once I know more about your project, I’ll be happy to give you a fixed-price quote to do the work.

{# Pain #}
Drupal 7 will be unsupported on the **5th of January 2025**.
Drupal 8 has been unsupported since **November 2021**, and Drupal 9 since **November 2023**.
Are you stuck on any of these versions?
* Do you need to upgrade your website before it reaches its end-of-life date and is no longer supported?
* Are you worried about rebuilding your website and migrating your data to Drupal 10?
* Is all of your business logic embedded within your Drupal code, making it hard to upgrade?
* Do you rely on modules or themes that are no longer updated or don't exist for Drupal 10?
{# Dream #}
## What if you had a clear path how to upgrade your website?
* What if you had a recommended approach to upgrade your website to Drupal 10?
* What if you knew about potential issues ahead of time?
* What if you had a list of modules to use in Drupal 10, alternatives for any missing modules, and what functionality would need custom code?
{# Fix #}
## Drupal upgrade roadmap
An upgrade roadmap is a personalised audit of your Drupal website and includes details and actionable steps to upgrade it, including identifying potential blockers you might encounter.
{# 1st call to action #}
{% include 'button.html.twig' with {
text: page.button.text ~ ' ',
url: page.button.url,
withArrow: true,
} %}
## How does it work?
* After receiving payment, we will arrange an initial call to discuss your project.
* You share your source code and provide access to your website.
* I'll need access to the source code for your website. Ideally, this is via GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, or whatever online version control you currently use, but I can also audit a zip file of your Git repository.
* I'll need a user account to access your website to review its configuration, such as content types, user roles, etc. You can delete this once the engagement is complete.
* Alternatively, I can use an export of the database to get a local version of your site up and running. Ideally, this would be sanitised to remove personal information such as usernames, email addresses and passwords.
* I'll send you the document once it's complete for you to review.
* We'll arrange a follow-up call to go through it in detail and for you to ask any questions.

{# Overcome objections #}
{# Uniqueness #}
## Who am I?
* I'm an Acquia-certified Drupal expert with {{ get_years_of_experience() }} years of professional development experience.
* I'm a former Drupal Association employee who was responsible for improving and maintaining Drupal.org.
* I'm a Drupal core contributor and maintain numerous Drupal projects, including the Override Node Options module, which is used on over 38,000 websites.
* I'm a multiple-time DrupalCon speaker who regularly presents talks and workshops at conferences and meetups.
{# Urgency #}
## Availability is limited
There will be no further extensions of Drupal 7 support, and I have limited availability due to the time required, so buy now to secure your place.

Are you a Drupal Developer who wants to learn about automated testing and test-driven development, or do you manage a development team that you'd like to train?
I've delivered large Drupal projects using automated tests and test-driven development for custom functionality, and maintain Drupal modules with thousands of installations whilst using their tests to ensure working code and prevent regressions.
I offer an interactive full-day workshop (previously presented at DrupalCamp London, and remotely for DrupalCamp NYC) that provides an introduction to automated testing in Drupal and how to utilise test-driven development - which I've updated specifically for Drupal {{ page.drupal_version }}.
## Contents
- What is automated testing, and why write tests?
- What types of tests are available in Drupal?
- Outside-in vs. inside-out testing.
- Configuring Drupal and PHPUnit to run tests locally.
- Exercise: writing tests for existing Drupal core functionality.
- Exercise: adding tests to an existing custom module.
- What is test-driven development?
- Exercise: writing a new Drupal module from scratch with test-driven development.
- Q&A
<hr />
## Dates and prices
The workshop is currently only available remotely, and the next available date is <span class="font-bold">{{ page.next_date|date('F jS, Y') }}</span>.
Seats are available at <span class="font-bold">{{ page.is_early_bird ? 'an early bird price of £' ~ page.prices.early : 'a price of £' ~ page.prices.full }}</span>, with a 10% discount for bulk orders of 5 or more seats.

<h2>You're already running my code in production</h2>
<p>I've contributed code to Drupal core and written popular contributed Drupal modules and themes, PHP and JavaScript libraries, and Tailwind CSS plugins.</p>
<p>For example, the Override Node Options module is used on around 40,000 active Drupal websites.</p>

<h2>Here's some of my recent work</h2>
<ul>
<li>I developed a Drupal module to integrate with a third-party translation provider, enabling automated translations of English-only content from XML feeds into different languages.</li>
<li>I created an example eCommerce application using Drupal Commerce for an asset finance company for their presentation to a multinational eCommerce company.</li>

Thank you for attending my Sculpin talk at PHP Berkshire.
[The slides and a previous recording](/presentations/building-static-websites-sculpin) are on the talk page.
To see an example of a Sculpin project, you can see [the source code for this website](https://github.com/opdavies/oliverdavies.uk), [my Zettlekasten](https://github.com/opdavies/zet.oliverdavies.uk) or [my demo for PHP South West](https://github.com/opdavies/phpsw-sculpin-demo).
If you want to try Sculpin, you can use [the Sculpin Skeleton project I created](https://github.com/opdavies/sculpin-skeleton) as a starting point for new projects.
## Can we work together?
As well as building static websites with Sculpin, I do consulting and advisory work using other PHP projects - namely, Drupal and Symfony.
I offer [unlimited monthly Drupal consulting](/consulting), [1-on-1 consultation calls](/call) and [pair programming sessions](/pair) to get people unstuck, and fixed prices (not estimates) for development work.
## Are you stuck on Drupal 7, 8 or 9?
Drupal 7 will be end-of-life and no longer supported as of the 5th of January, 2025.
Drupal 8 and 9 are already unsupported.
If you have an outdated Drupal website and want to know more about upgrading to Drupal 10, [book your upgrade roadmap](/drupal-upgrade) and I'll help you get there.
## Stay in touch
The best way to stay in touch with me is my [email list](/daily) to which I send daily emails about Drupal and software development.
All emails are sent from my personal email address, so you can press reply and contact me directly.

title: Sponsor me to work on Open Source Software
---
I enjoy working with and on open source software.
I've been using PHP since 2007 and Drupal since 2008 and am an enthusiastic open source contributor.
Drupal core, Drupal.org, LocalGov Drupal and Drupal Commerce are some of the projects I've contributed to.
I maintain the popular Override Node Options module which is used on around 40,000 active Drupal websites and created a starterkit Drupal theme for Tailwind CSS.
There are lots of other examples on my [Drupal.org][0] and [GitHub][1] profiles.
I've found that companies want to contribute more, but are too busy.
Most projects have a custom module or library that was going to be contributed back, but it just hasn't happened yet.
## Why not sponsor a contributor?
If you don't have time to contribute, why not sponsor me to do it for you?
Whether it's contributing that module or library, adding a missing feature or fixing a bug in something you use, or you just want to sponsor me to work on open source, <a href="mailto:{{site.email}}?subject=Open source sponsorship">I'd love to hear from you</a>.
We can discuss how much time you want to sponsor and what you want me to focus on and I'll get to work.
You'll be mentioned on any relevant blog posts, live streams, issues and pull or merge requests, so everyone will know that you sponsored me and you'll get the kudos.
