    Talking Drupal #476 - Off The Cuff #10

    Today we are talking about some things are on our mind including, The DOJ Accessibility ruling,Drupal CMS Event Recipes and Tooling for core development with our Hosts. We’ll also cover @font-your-face as our module of the week. For show notes visit: https://www.talkingDrupal.com/476 Topics DOJ Accessibility Ruling Drupal CMS Tooling for core development Open University Resources Accessibility ruling PHPUnit testing https://www.drupal.org/docs/develop/automated-testing/phpunit-in-drupal/running-phpunit-javascript-tests https://github.com/ddev/ddev-selenium-standalone-chrome Drupal Events Recipes Guests Martin Anderson-Clutz - mandclu.com mandclu Hosts Nic Laflin - nLighteneddevelopment.com nicxvan John Picozzi - epam.com johnpicozzi Martin Anderson-Clutz - mandclu.com mandclu Joshua "Josh" Mitchell - joshuami.com joshuami MOTW Correspondent Martin Anderson-Clutz - mandclu.com mandclu Brief description: Have you ever wanted to add and manage web fonts for your Drupal site, directly within the admin interface? There’s a module for that. Module name/project name: @font-your-face Brief history How old: created in May 2010 by Scott Reynen, but the most recent release was by Henrique Mendes (hmendes) of CI&T Versions available: 7.x-2.8 and 4.0.0 versions available, the latter of which support Drupal 9.4 and 10. Maintainership Actively maintained Security coverage Test coverage Documentation, but looks like it might be ready for a refresh Number of open issues: 48 open issues, 8 of which are bugs against the current branch Usage stats: 32,213 sites Module features and usage The module provides an interface to browse fonts from Google, Adobe, Typekit, and more License restrictions for fonts are clearly indicated When you find a font you want to use, you just click “enable”. You don’t need to write any CSS or define a library, and it’s easy to mix-and-match fonts from different providers. It can even make it easier to include your own local fonts The module includes submodules for the different font providers, so you enable the submodules based on where you want to use fonts from Then you can import the fonts for those providers, though you do need an API key to import fonts from Google The module does also have an API, so you can write your own modules to integrate with other font providers, or access the information about available fonts

    Talking Drupal #475 - Workspaces

    Today we are talking about Workspaces, What They are, and How They Work with guest Scott Weston. We’ll also cover Workspaces Extra as our module of the week. For show notes visit: https://www.talkingDrupal.com/475 Topics What are Workspaces in Drupal What's a common use cases for Workspaces Are Workspaces stable Do Workspaces help with content versioning What does the module ecosystem look like for Workspaces Inspiration Workspaces best practices Any interesting ways it is being used Is there a way to access workspace content in twig Navigation integration Workspaces and workflows What aspects of a Workspace are limited to live If someone wants to get involved or get started Resources Drupal Workspaces Core issue: Media library form can only be submitted in the default workspace Integrate Navigation with Workspaces Guests Scott Weston - scott-weston Hosts Nic Laflin - nLighteneddevelopment.com nicxvan John Picozzi - epam.com johnpicozzi Joshua "Josh" Mitchell - joshuami.com joshuami MOTW Correspondent Martin Anderson-Clutz - mandclu.com mandclu Brief description: Do you want to extend the capabilities of the Workspaces system in Drupal core? There’s a module for that. Module name/project name: Workspaces Extra Brief history How old: created in Apr 2021 by Andrei Mateescu (amateescu) of tag1, who has also contributed to Workspaces in core, among other many things Versions available: 2.0.0-alpha3 which works with Drupal 10.3 or 11 Maintainership Actively maintained, latest release is less than a week old Security coverage: technically yes, but not really until it has a stable release Test coverage Number of open issues: 20 open issues, 3 of which are bugs against the current branch, though one has already been fixed Usage stats: 89 sites Module features and usage One of the big features in Drupal 10.3 was that Workspaces is now officially stable. That said, not everything works the way some site builders will want it to. That’s where a contrib solution like Workspace Extra can help to fill in the gaps It provides new options like letting you roll back changes from a published workspace, move content between workspaces, discard changes in a workspace, squashing content revisions when a workspace is published, and more Workspaces Extra, or WSE also includes a number of submodules to add even more capabilities. For example, they can allow your workspace to stage an allowlist of configuration changes, deploy workspace content using an import/export system, stage menu changes, and more. For workflow, there’s an option to generate a shareable workspace preview link for external users, and a scheduler to publish your workspace at a specific day and time I will add that the first time I played with workspaces I ran into an issue where I couldn’t create media entities within a workspace. I don’t know for sure that this hasn’t been fixed in core, but the core issue about it is still listed as “Needs work”. That said, the last comment on that issue (link in the show notes) lists WSE as something that helps, so if you encounter the same issue with Workspaces, WSE is worth a try

    Talking Drupal #474 - Revolt Event Loop

    Today we are talking about the revolt event Loop, what it is, and why it matters with guest Alexander Varwijk. We’ll also cover IEF Complex Widget Dialog as our module of the week. For show notes visit: https://www.talkingDrupal.com/474 Topics What is an event loop Why does Drupal need an event loop What will change in core to implement this What problem does this solve Does this make Cron cleaner and long running processes faster What impact will this have on contrib How would contrib use this loop What does this mean for database compatibility What inspired this change Test instability Why Revolt Will this help with Drupal AI Resources Adopt the Revolt event loop for async task orchestration revoltphp/event-loop was added as a dependency to Drupal Core Add "EventLoop::run" to Drupal Core Migrate BigPipe and the Renderer code that's currently built with fibers Revolt Playground that shows converting some Fiber implementations from Drupal to the Event Loop DrupalCon Barcelona Talk about "Why Async Drupal a Big Deal Is" Async PHP libraries https://reactphp.org/ https://amphp.org/ Guests Alexander Varwijk - alexandervarwijk.com Kingdutch Hosts Nic Laflin - nLighteneddevelopment.com nicxvan John Picozzi - epam.com johnpicozzi Joshua "Josh" Mitchell - joshuami.com joshuami MOTW Correspondent Martin Anderson-Clutz - mandclu.com mandclu Brief description: Have you ever wanted to use Inline Entity Forms but have the dependent form open in a dialog? There’s a module for that. Module name/project name: IEF Complex Widget Dialog Brief history How old: created in Mar 2020 by dataweb, though recent releases are by Chris Lai (chrisck), a fellow Canadian Versions available: 2.1.1 and 2.2.2, the latter or which is compatible Drupal 8.8 or newer, all the way up to Drupal 11 Maintainership Actively maintained, latest release in the past month Number of open issues: 4 open issues, none of which are bugs against the current version Usage stats: 273 sites Module features and usage When you install the module, your Inline Entity Form widget configuration will have a new checkbox, to “Enable Popup for IEF” Includes specialized handling for different kinds of entities, like nodes, users, taxonomy terms, and users Will handle not just the creation forms, but editing entities, and also duplicating or deleting entities Not something you would always need, but can be very useful if the form you want to use for entity or even parent forms that are complex I should also add that IEF supports form modes, so often I’ll create an “embedded” form mode that exposes fewer elements, for example hiding the fields for URL alias, sticky, and so on. So I would start there, but if the content creation experience still feels complex, then IEF Complex Widget Dialog might be a nice way to help

There’s a module for that Module name/project name: Navigation Extra Tools Brief history How old: created in Oct 2024, less than a week ago by friend of the podcast James Shields aka lostcarpark Versions available: 1.0.0-beta3 which works with Drupal 10.3 and 11 Maintainership Actively maintained, already 3 releases Security coverage - too new, but hopefully will have in time Test coverage Number of open issues: 8 “open” issues, 4 of which are bugs, but all but one of which are now marked as fixed with the latest release Usage stats: 12 sites Module features and usage With this module enabled, the new left side Navigation menu available in Drupal core will include links to clear caches (all or a specific cache), run cron, and run database updates It’s a good example of a module that does something very specific and very useful, so I wanted to share it with our listeners as quickly as possible I know these functions are ones I’ve been missing in my own Drupal 11 dev sites, so I’m looking forward to using this module right away

    Talking Drupal #472 - Access Policy API

    Today we are talking about Access Policy API, What it does, and How you can use it with guest Kristiaan Van den Eynde. We’ll also cover Visitors as our module of the week. For show notes visit: https://www.talkingDrupal.com/472 Topics What is the Access Policy API Why does Drupal need the Access Policy API How did Drupal handle access before How does the Access Policy API interact with roles Does a module exist that shows a UI What is the difference between Policy Based Access Control (PBAC), Attribute Based Access Control (ABAC) and Role Based Access Control (RBAC) How does Access Policy API work with PBAC, ABAC and RBAC Can you apply an access policy via a recipe Is there a roadmap What was it like going through pitchburg How can people get involved Resources Access Policy API Access Policy Talking Drupal #226 Group Flexible Permissions External roles Test Super access policy Access policy talk at Drupalcon barcelona D.o Issue about exception on security issue Guests Kristiaan Van den Eynde - kristiaanvandeneynde Hosts Nic Laflin - nLighteneddevelopment.com nicxvan John Picozzi - epam.com johnpicozzi Aubrey Sambor - star-shaped.org starshaped MOTW Correspondent Martin Anderson-Clutz - mandclu.com mandclu Brief description: Have you ever wanted a Drupal-native solution for tracking website visitors and their behavior? There’s a module for that Module name/project name: Visitors Brief history How old: created in Mar 2009 by gashev, though recent releases are by Steven Ayers (bluegeek9) Versions available: 8.x-2.19, which works with Drupal 10 and 11 Maintainership Actively maintained Security coverage Test coverage Documentation guide is available Number of open issues: 20 open issues, none of which are bugs against the 8.x branch Usage stats: Over 6,000 sites Module features and usage A benefit of using a Drupal-native solution is that you retain full ownership over your visitor data. Not sharing that data with third parties can be important for data protection regulations, as well as data privacy concerns. You also have a variety of reports you can access directly within the Drupal UI, including top pages, referrers, and more There is a submodule for geoip lookups using Maxmind, if you also want reporting on what region, country, or city your visitors hail from It provides drush commands to download a geoip database, and then update your data based on geoip lookups using that database It should be mentioned that the downside of using Drupal as your analytics solution is the potential performance impact and also a likely uptick in usage for hosts that charge based on the number of dynamic requests served

    Talking Drupal #471 - Off The Cuff #9

    Today we are talking about Freemium Drupal Modules, The WordPress hub-bub, and Drupal, Now with AI with our hosts. We’ll also cover FullCalendar as our module of the week. For show notes visit: https://www.talkingDrupal.com/471 Topics Freemium Drupal Wordpress controversy Drupal CMS and AI Resources Dries Wordpress Blog Post Non-Code Contribution: Using your passion and skills to power open source. DrupalCon Barcelona Driesnote Drupal AI Guests Hosts Nic Laflin - nLighteneddevelopment.com nicxvan John Picozzi - epam.com johnpicozzi Aubrey Sambor - star-shaped.org starshaped Martin Anderson-Clutz - mandclu.com mandclu MOTW Correspondent Martin Anderson-Clutz - mandclu.com mandclu Brief description: Have you ever wanted an interactive calendar to display your Drupal events with drag-and-drop rescheduling, and without using jQuery? There’s a module for that. Module name/project name: FullCalendar Brief history How old: created in Sep 2010 by ablondeau, though I’ve been behind the most recent releases Versions available: 7.x-2.0 and 3.0.0-beta2 versions available, the latter of which supports Drupal 10 and 11 Maintainership Actively maintained, latest release was this morning Security coverage, though technically the 3.0.x branch will have it once it’s stable Test coverage, minimal but on the roadmap Documentation - does have a user guide, but created for the D7 version, so newer documentation is needed Number of open issues: 337 open issues, none of which are bugs against the 3.0.x branch Usage stats: 3,388 sites, though the vast majority of those are for the D7 version, since the 3.0.x branch is very new Module features and usage No jQuery! Lots of configurability plus some extras specifically for Drupal Drag-and-drop to alter events Option to require confirmation Can display toast-style notifications when updates are save Double-click on a day or time to create an event at that time Can display events from different content types, even if they use different fields to store dates, and yes, even different kinds of fields, so a mixture of core and Smart Date fields will work You can set default colors and output type (block or the newer, list-item display), and the ability to override color based on content type or a taxonomy reference This module had been essentially dormant for over 4 years, but I decided to work with Jürgen Haas on reviving it after a similar and popular project called Fullcalendar View was not only marked as “Minimally maintained” and “Maintenance fixes only”, but the project page directed users to contact the maintainer to pay for a premium version, in order to use the current version of the Fullcalendar JS library, or to load events via AJAX, which as been an often-requested feature because Fullcalendar View has had common reports of performance problems on sites with lots of event data. Worse, the maintainer has closed as “won’t fix” issues that had community-provided patches, because he only wanted to provide said improvements in the paid, premium version In my work on the Events recipe for Drupal CMS, I knew that having a solid calendar would be important, and I didn’t feel good about relying on a module that seemed to be pushing users more and more towards a paid model. I’m grateful to Jurgen and everyone who worked on FullCalendar before us for creating such a robust and extensible code base

    Talking Drupal #470 - Creating Recipes

    Today we are talking about Creating Recipes, What Recipes already exist, and helpful tips and tricks with guest Jim Birch. We’ll also cover Features as our module of the week. For show notes visit: https://www.talkingDrupal.com/470 Topics What are recipes How do you recommend someone get started writing recipes Where can people find recipes Can you include sub recipes How should you test recipes Any tools that make writing recipes easier What recipes are needed that do not exist How can people move recipes forward Resources Recipe Author Guide Drupal Core Recipes Preconditions for recipes Drupal Recipes Cookbook Recipes Packagist Recipe type Phase 2 roadmap Umami profile recipes Minimal profile recipes Guests Jim Birch - linkedin.com/in/jimbirch thejimbirch Hosts Nic Laflin - nLighteneddevelopment.com nicxvan John Picozzi - epam.com johnpicozzi Aubrey Sambor - star-shaped.org starshaped MOTW Correspondent Martin Anderson-Clutz - mandclu.com mandclu Brief description: Have you ever wanted an admin UI to manage sets of configuration, to version and share across Drupal sites? There’s a module for that. Module name/project name: Features Brief history How old: created in Mar 2009 by yhahn, though recent releases are by Dave Reid Versions available: 7.x-2.15 and 8.x-3.14, the latter of which works with Drupal 9.4 and 10 Maintainership Minimally maintained Security coverage Test coverage Documentation: Has a documentation guide and probably hundreds if not thousands of of tutorials available Number of open issues: 610 open issues, 54 of which are bugs against the 8.x branch Usage stats: Almost 117,000 sites, though the majority are using the D7 version Module features and usage Many listeners will remember Features as the de facto solution for configuration management in Drupal 7 and earlier As the name implies, it was really intended to share common capabilities across different Drupal sites Unlike recipes, Features can have version numbers, because there is a path to sync configuration updates across sites using a Feature, though this is where a lot of teams found Features could be complex to use We did previously cover Features as MOTW all the way back in episode #147, but I thought it was relevant to today’s discussion because of the way it provides a UI for organizing and exporting specific sets of configuration There is an open issue for Features to directly export recipes, because it already does a lot of the time-consuming work of collecting together necessary config files, including dependencies Even its current state, it could be a time saver for anyone wanting to start creating their own recipes
