Code

  try {
    // Establish arguments with possible overrides.
    $args = $this->getInstallArgs($overrides);

    // Take a Backup.

    }

    // Make sure the installation parent directory exists and is writable.
    $this->prepareInstallDirectory($filetransfer, $args['install_dir']);

    // Note: If the project is installed in sites/all, it will not be
    // deleted. It will be installed in sites/default as that will override
    // the sites/all reference and not break other sites which are using it.
    if (is_dir($args['install_dir'] . '/' . $this->name)) {
      // Remove the existing installed file.
      $filetransfer->removeDirectory($args['install_dir'] . '/' . $this->name);

    // Copy the directory in place.

    // Make sure what we just installed is readable by the web server.

    // Run the updates.
    // @TODO: decide if we want to implement this.

    // For now, just return a list of links of things to do.
