# DrupalX Static

### Exporting DrupalX to Static Files with the Tome Module

The Drupal Tome module enables the export of DrupalX sites to static files. Detailed instructions can be found on the [Tome documentation site](https://tome.fyi/docs/).

#### **Example Usage**

Follow these steps to set it up DrupalX with Tome:

1. **Add Tome to Composer**

   Add the latest development version of Tome (compatible with Drush 12) to your project:

   ```bash
   composer require drupal/tome:1.x-dev
   ```
2. **Enable the Tome Static Module**

   Enable the Tome static module using Drush:

   ```bash
   ddev drush en -y tome_static
   ```
3. **Export the Site Using Drush**

   Export your site to static files:

   ```bash
   ddev drush tome:static --uri=https://yourproductionurl --path-count=1 --process-count=1
   ```
4. **Navigate to the HTML Directory**

   Change to the `/html` directory:

   ```bash
   cd html
   ```
5. **Deploy to Netlify**

   Deploy the static site to Netlify. For optimal results, set the process count and path count to 1. This avoids issues with the active menu link not appearing correctly:

   ```bash
   netlify deploy --site yoursitename --prod
   ```
6. **Configure URLs on Netlify**

   Turn off pretty URLs in Netlify under the "Build & Deploy" configuration. This prevents Netlify from adding a trailing '/' character to URLs.

By following these steps, you can effectively export your DrupalX site to static files and deploy them to Netlify, ensuring a fast and reliable static site experience.
