The CLI for Drupal – Drush is now preinstalled on SiteGround servers!

Lately, we have added some fancy new features for Joomla and WordPress users and you might be wondering what’s next in our queue. We intend to add such features for other popular applications on our servers as well. So the good news this week is that our Drupal users can enjoy Drush 6.0 preinstalled on our servers!

What is Drush?

Drush is a command line interface that allows you to manage your Drupal website directly from a SSH console. You can use Drush to accomplish almost every task you usually perform from your Drupal admin panel and even more. For example, you can update your Drupal application, install & uninstall plugins, clear your cache and more.

How to Launch Drush?

Usually, you need to install Drush and configure it to work with your account, which is often a cumbersome process. That’s not the case if you’re a SiteGround customer – we have installed Drush on server level! We have also prepared an easy Drush tutorial with more information on the available commands to help you get started.
