I have a "drupal/legacy-project" Drupal 9 project (it was packed inside bought custom drupal theme and later updated to latest drupal 9 version) and I need some custom edits in my root .htaccess file. When I run "composer update" all my custom edits in .htacess are gone and my site is immediately broken. Composer output:
Scaffolding files for drupal/core:
- Copy [web-root]/.htaccess from assets/scaffold/files/htaccess
I want my root .htaccess updated with a core updates since there might be some security updates in the future. But also I want to keep my custom lines in the .htaccess. So I tried to implement file-mapping option in my composer.json:
"file-mapping": {
"[web-root]/.htaccess": {
"prepend": "assets/my_htaccess_additions.txt"
}
}
But instead of prepending my custom lines from assets/my_htaccess_additions.txt file to root .htaccess I got no scaffolding at all and this text in my composer output:
Scaffolding files for drupal/core:
Skip [web-root]/.htaccess: overridden in drupal/legacy-project
Why is that and why composer mentions two projects (drupal/core and drupal/legacy-project) instead of one? Also I need to mention that this file-mapping setup works perfectly in my dev environment, but not in my prod environment
Thanks.
My system: ubuntu 18.04, php7.4, apache2. My composer.json contents:
