Setup instructions

Introduction

This projects is just an example of how to create a content type from a custom Drupal 7 module with some additional features:

The content type will have this fields:

• Name
• First name
• Avatar
• E-mail
• Birthday

Every friend should receive an email when his birthday arrives.

The page that displays the friends information is themed.

On the page search-friends you have an autocomplete field were you can search through all the friends, when you select a friend from the autocomplete you will see his information.

Test the module

To run a Drupal 7 site to test this module you need to have Docker and Docker Compose installed in your system. Then clone this repo and run the following command inside the project directory:

docker-compose up -d

And lets Docker do the magic...

Then enable the module with:

$ ./exec drush en -y friend

This will also download the dependencies.

Then you can use the following addresses to visit the site:

• Drupal: http://localhost:8080/ (user and password: admin)
• phpMyAdmin: http://localhost:8081/
• Mail Catcher: http://localhost:8082/

Add some dummy friends content

To add some dummy content we need to activate the Devel Generate module:

$ ./exec drush dl devel
$ ./exec drush en -y devel_generate
$ ./exec drush generate-content 20 --types=friend
