Greetings,

I wrote a FileMaker module (currently awaiting approval for CVS) that people might be interested in.

Posted the module to github.

The CVS application seems to be taking a while. Please feel free to download and use the module from github.

Very cool!

This is great - much appreciated.

URL of your CVS application

Looks impressive and I am eager to test it out.

By the way, what is the URL of your CVS application? I'll see what I can do.

Nice module start Ted!

Hey Ted, just watched your youtube video. Nice start on the module!

This is a REALLY nice addition for people who want to get their FileMaker data on the web but don't want (or need) to pay for a custom PHP solution. It just makes too much sense to simply use Drupal and buy an attractive theme to have users be able to get to their data in FileMaker.

I'm looking forward to seeing what happens with your module!

Matt

Thanks for the nice words about my FileMaker module.

It would be wonderful if you could share your thoughts about FileMaker/Drupal integration on my git application:

Thanks in advance,

Looks great Ted. Any plan to release a d7 version?

FileMaker module D7?

tedstein's picture

Probably will make a D7 version. There seems to be a fair amount of interest. I will post updates here and maybe send e-mails to people who inquired.

CVS Application

Now has checkbox support

tedstein's picture

Hey all, I added checkbox support for the FileMaker module and refined a few other features.

You can find the current copy at:
https://github.com/tedstein/filemaker

CVS application is now a Git application

tedstein's picture

The application for a project page is taking a while (but thanks, xmacinfo and all for help) and is now a git application instead of a cvs application.

I would be grateful if you could either review the module, or just let people know that you are interested in more FileMaker modules for Drupal.

If you commented on the CVS application, please comment on the git application.

Also, the FileMaker module has several new features, and more to come. I am hopeful that the FileMaker community will help me convince the Drupal community this FileMaker module deserves a Drupal project page.

Please leave your comments at:

Thanks all. Download the FileMaker module at:

Which version Filemaker pro

jeno's picture

Which version of Filemaker pro server do you support?
I will have access to a live Filemaker pro 9 server in the coming month

9 works.

tedstein's picture

9 works. You will need the ability to turn on PHP extended privileges though (and I am not sure if you need Server Advanced in v9 for that).

Filemaker Pro 10

jeno's picture

My client just updated their FM Pro server to version 10. Its just a Pro server, not a Pro Advanced server tho.
I am a little bit confused. Do I need to turn on Instant Web Publishing or PHP Web Publishing? or ODBC/JDBC?

Using a FileMaker DB as a source for an RSS-Feed

BLausch's picture

Hello tedstein,
is it possible to make a view out of the data, which a stored in a filemaker-DB, with your module ?
If this is possible, I guess I can create a RSS-Feed (a spezial view display) out of these data as well, which would be very nice :-)
