Drush is a command line shell and Unix scripting interface for Drupal. Drush core ships with lots of useful commands for interacting with code like modules/themes/profiles. Similarly, it runs update.php, executes sql queries and DB migrations, and misc utilities like run cron or clear cache. Drush can be extended by 3rd party commandfiles.

If you would like to install Drush, please follow these steps:

  1. Run these commands:

    cd /usr/local/src/
php -r "readfile('http://files.drush.org/drush.phar');" > drush
chmod +x drush
mv drush /usr/local/bin/

  2. If you are using CageFS, you will need to run these commands:

    echo -en '[drush]\ncomment=Allow drush to work on the server\npaths=/usr/local/bin/drush\n' > /etc/cagefs/conf.d/drush.cfg					
cagefsctl --force-update

  3. In order to allow Drush run disabled commands, under user run the following commands:

    mkdir ~/.drush
echo "disable_functions=" > ~/.drush/drush.ini

  4. Run the final command to start Drush:

    drush init

That's all, you can now use drush.
