Config Split 1.x cannot be installed if Config Ignore is installed

Created on 2 June 2025, about 1 month ago

If Config Ignore is installed, you cannot subsequently install Config Split 1.x. When you attempt to, you get the following fatal error:

The "config_split" entity type does not exist.

This is because of a particularly fun chain of events:

Before installing the config split entity type, the module installer calls \Drupal::service('router.route_provider')
The route provider depends on the cache_tags.invalidator service
Instantiation of the cache tags invalidator requires instantiating all individual cache tag invalidators, including the config_ignore.event_subscriber service
The config ignore event subscriber requires the config.storage.sync service
With Config Filter and Config Split 1.x that is the filtered storage so this fetches all config filter definitions
Fetching the config filter definitions ends up calling SplitFilterDeriver::create()
SplitFilterDeriver::create() calls $container->get('entity_type.manager')->getStorage('config_split')

I guess I should point out that Config Filter 1.x is required for this bug to occur. Did not check specifically why.
