Create a distribution How is it possible to create a new Drupal distribution based on site that I already built? I've already exported the content types using

drupal config:export:content:type MYCONTENTTYPE --module MYMODULE

Drupal console has the following function which may be useful.

This following link leads to the current drupal.org documentation on creating a Drupal 8 distribution. It looks like it only shows how to create a distribution manually though.

https://www.drupal.org/docs/8/creating-distributions/how-to-write-a-drupal-8-installation-profile

I was hoping that there was something in Drupal console or Composer that would take all the information in my current database and create an installation profile out of it.

EDIT

The Drupal Profile Builder seems wonderful but current only supports D7.
Actually, the drupal.org link above will work. At the bottom of the page there is a section that discusses bringing configuration files into the install directory. You can use Drupal Console (DC) to create the configuration files like this:

drupal config:export


It will put all the configurations in the public folder unless you specifiy a directory.

EDIT 

Also, I've added a Drupal.org page has a lot of resources for creating a distribution. On the sidebar it lists common make errors and other useful links.

If you check the release download page of your distribution, you can find the Drupal packager error messages if you send a distribution for packaging.

A lot of this needs to be learned by trial and error. I've spent a fair amount of time on this and still haven't gotten the hang of things.

EDIT

Also, there appears to be something called drupalorg_drush. It's a drush extension that helps build a replica of what drupal.org would do with your distribution files should you upload them to your project's Git repository. However, at the time of this writing, Drupal 8 version is not available.
