- I think one of the best short and crisp and a very newbie introduction to Drush is on this article, "An introduction to Drush: The Drupal power tool" by James Sinclair. This I feel is the best starting point for DRUSH. This article will tell about:
- Why DRUSH and things you can do ? It also highlights the use cases DRUSH is applied to and basically convinces you that this is really the thing you have been missing so far.
- It shows you the newbie level commands in a nice tabular fashion with short and crisp explanation.
- Shows you how to use DRUSH to run drush commands on remote drupal website by running them on your local machine.
- Shows you how to use DRUSH to run one Command on several remote websites with the execution of just one script. Say for example, take a back up on several remote websites with execution of just one script on your local host.
- The best part is that it is in TEXT. It happens with me at least that sometimes I miss out some critical parts when trying to learn directly from the screencast. Especially an absolutely a new topic like this one. Prefer to read at my own pace and use eyes to find and re-read points I may have missed out. This is a long replay in a video file and there is no search there as well.
- For those more comfortable with the video learning, I think Natalie's screencasts are a wonderful resource as well.
- These writeups and screencasts introduce the next level of DRUSH commands in a very simple and a nice way.
- It is easier to follow this screencast after reading the above article.
- There are several screencasts here.
- This website has several excellent tutorials and screencasts on the following topics as well.
