IMP

We encourage users to post events happening in the community to the community events group on https://www.drupal.org.

Interested in helping test Drupal 6 to Drupal 8 migrations? Start here for instructions on how to get set up, and where to start testing. Find us on IRC in #drupal-migrate.

Weekly Meeting

We meet weekly on Thursdays at 1:00 UTC (Wed 6pm PDT, Wed 9pm EDT, Thurs 9am benjy-time). Post a comment on the event page if you'd like to participate (and not just watch) and we'll be sure to invite you when the hangout begins.

Current Priorities

D6 > D8

All issues are in the core queue.

Pick any active issue, read the instructions, assign to yourself, and hack away! If you can't complete it, post a partial patch and unassign.

D7 > D8

All issues are in the core queue.

About IMP

WHAT: Import API in Drupal 8 core, based on the Migrate project. Also in core: Drupal 6 and 7 import using this API based on the Drupal-to-Drupal data migration project. Read and comment on Mike Ryan's thoughts at http://goo.gl/WnTOB0.

WHERE: If you'd like to be involved now, find us in IRC on #drupal-migrate. If you have any doubts about what to do, find us in IRC or post in the issue! Work takes place here: https://drupal.org/sandbox/chx/2105305. The UI is at https://drupal.org/sandbox/mikeryan/2271813 .

Migrate API documentation can be found at https://drupal.org/node/2127611

WHY: So that Drupal 6 sites can move directly to Drupal 8. (And because the current upgrade path is unmaintainable.)

HOW: We're currently doing targeted testing and patching of the D6->D8 migration path. Want to get involved - introduce yourself in #drupal-migrate on IRC!

Weekly calls #1 meeting notes

10 October 2013

Present: chx, eliza411, marvil07, moshe, mike ryan, alex weber, brent dunn, ashok modi

Architecture Overview
Moshe: concerned sources may be too specific
chx: extensible base classes, for example drupal 6 node would be an extension of the sql driver

most of what’s happening is moving code around, little new code being introduced

Mike Ryan: one goal for D8 is to switch out the base layer, to get the nodes from web services or PDO

Weekly calls #1

Before the call

The architecture is shaping up at https://drupal.org/node/2107029 , Melissa posted a useful diagram to https://drupal.org/node/2107029#comment-7946793 . So, everything became a plugin. What was addFieldMapping is just an entry in the Migration configuration entity. There's no code or db defined migrations, there's only the Migration configuration entity.

I strongly suggest renaming field to column. It's not used (widely) in Drupal 7 or 8 (unlike property or field).
