D8 port

how do install this and run it with d7 sites?

Sorry that was a bit terse(pre coffee) comment. What I mean is I created #1332950: Support 8.x post /core move because I wasn't looking for a port, I was looking for support. You don't install different versions of drush scripts, drush commands are expected to work in different version of Drupal because of how its used.

Also, I'm looking for something that will help me bisect across the /core move which means it sort of needs to support 2 states of drupal8 which is going to be... special...

Sorry - I must have misunderstood... I agree that the drush part will have to handle the multiple versions successfully. Not going to be able to help with the git bisect I don't think :-)

Would be less an issue if this existed in core and and was translated across the move... ;)

I pretty much think this should exist in at least drush core but probably drupal core, as you say.

@wojtha marked #1328718: D8 port as a duplicate of this one.

I didnt noticed the issue so I created the issue #1335558: Port to Drupal 8 independently (now closed as duplicate).

Here is my patch. The only difference is that I'm trying to enable the Entity module (I migrated today from the state when the entity was part of the common shared libraries).

Probably better to at least say "entity module was enabled if it existed" or act based on the db_update. No biggie though.

Is it always reasonable to enable entity just because it's discovered in the system table?

I tried out #7 and was able to get out of hell on my D8 install using the php registry_rebuild.php approach, but the drush integration doesn't seem to be right yet:

PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function registry_get_parsed_files() in /home/rfay/.drush/registry_rebuild.drush.inc on line 61

@wojtha could you explain why you need to independently enable entity module? It seems to me if it was already enabled, that's good... if not...

Here's a version that works for me on D7 and D8.

Certainly open to improvements.

Had to follow up with http://drupalcode.org/project/registry_rebuild.git/commitdiff/2154391 since I broke D7 drush.

@rfay #18, I had older codebase of D8 before "corepocalypse" and when entity was a common library (entity.inc) not a module. But now entity isn't common library but a required module, needed early in the bootstrap...

So basically it fixes the transition from the state before that commit:

    - Patch #1018602 by fago, catch, aspilicious: move entity system to a module.

OK, thanks.

Since so much time has passed and we'd assume the older d8 code is gone, I'm moving this back to fixed. If there are any issues, I'm still happy to put that code back in, but too lazy to do so right now. Patch accepted, but I doubt it's relevant.
