The proposed solution: - Linux containers with vagrant & docker automatic deployments.

A Content Staging Solution for Drupal 8 (and more)

Tue, 04/21/2015 - 09:43 -- rprice

The content staging solution for Drupal 8 is based on a re-designed version of the Deploy module. This solution consists of some contrib modules and depends on three Drupal core modules. The core dependencies are Entity API, Serialization and Restful Web Services. The contributed module dependencies are Relaxed Web Services, Multiversion, Key-value Extensions and (soon) Deploy. The Relaxed Web Services module provides a Restful/Relaxed JSON API and endpoints for entities, file attachments, administrative tasks like revisions comparison, starting/stopping replication, etc.

Panel Schedule | Drupal.org

Wed, 04/15/2015 - 11:49 -- rprice

Panel Schedule provides a ctools access plugin, intended to be used for controlling visibility of panel panes, and selection of panel variants based on a scheduled start (and optionally end) date & time. Being a simple ctools access plugin, it should also be usable with any other task that makes use of ctools access plugins.

Padlock | Drupal.org

Fri, 03/27/2015 - 08:43 -- rprice

The padlock module is designed to limit the functionality of Drupal forms by setting a validation error unless the form is allowed to be submitted in the module configuration. The module also provides a permission to bypass the padlock validation for roles with the elevated permission. Use Cases: Integration / Staging Sites / Training Sites Testing deployment scripts and processes. Allow the review of a form without the submission of the form. Locking specific forms without removing the entire permission set for that role.

Creating Custom Field Formatters in Drupal 8

Thu, 03/19/2015 - 05:11 -- rprice

In this article we’ve seen how easy it is to create a field formatter and extend default behaviour in Drupal 8. We’ve only touched on overriding the viewElements() of this plugin but we can do much more to further customise things. You are also not required to extend the ImageFormatter. There are plenty of existing plugins you can either extend from or use as an example.

Backdrop Does a Disservice to Developers | Mark Ahrens

Fri, 03/13/2015 - 06:25 -- rprice

Mark said, “I have a personal aversion to being too tied to one tool, so I want to make sure developers are thinking about their career right now but also 5, 10, 20 years from now.” Who can argue against this? At face value, these words are plain and simple and true. I can’t speak for every supporter of Backdrop CMS, but I personally will be learning both. I choose to do this because I can and I believe it opens many doors to what Drupal can do and how it innovates. I was working in Procedural PHP before I found Drupal in 2007.
