Append scaffolding .htaccess does not seem to work

Append, doesn't work

"extra": { "drupal-scaffold": { "locations": { "web-root": "web/" }, "file-mapping": { "web/.htaccess": { "append": "assets/htaccess-php82.txt" } } },

The file assets/htaccess-php82.txt content:

AddType application/x-httpd-php82 .php

Patch, works

The patch method works well:

"name": "my/project", ... "scripts": { "post-drupal-scaffold-cmd": [ "cd web && patch -p1 <../assets/php82.patch" ] }

... with this in the patch file assets/php82.patch:

diff --git a/.htaccess b/.htaccess index 4031da47..d5f674c3 100644 --- a/.htaccess +++ b/.htaccess @@ -1,3 +1,5 @@ +AddType application/x-httpd-php82 .php + # # Apache/PHP/Drupal settings: #

If this is indeed true, then it's probably Major or even Critical, since it may break web sites, or make them vulnerable.

Ah, I had a look around for an example, and found this:

$ grep -A 3 "file-mapping" web/core/composer.json 
            "file-mapping": {
                "[project-root]/.editorconfig": "assets/scaffold/files/editorconfig",
                "[project-root]/.gitattributes": "assets/scaffold/files/gitattributes",
                "[web-root]/.csslintrc": "assets/scaffold/files/csslintrc",

I misunderstood the documentation, and replaced [web-root] with the actual web-root web. After updating to this, all works well:

    "extra": {
        "drupal-scaffold": {
            "locations": {
                "web-root": "web/"
            },
            "file-mapping": {
                "[web-root]/.htaccess": {
                    "append": "assets/htaccess-php82.txt"
                }
            }
        },

Appending also works now after composer install:
