migrate

Backing up a bit to a high-level view of the architecture, right now we've got the whole thing in a single Migrate module. I'd like to see some separation between the APIs that will service all kinds of migrations, and the support specific to Drupal-to-Drupal upgrades, as well as identifying what (if anything) requires a module. The buckets of code I picture:

Core

• Migrate API: Most of what we have now.
• Upgrade API: Any classes specific to Drupal-to-Drupal migration.
• Upgrade module: D6/D7 migration configurations, plus UI.

Contrib

• migrate_plus module (or even call it "migrate", if there's no module in core?): General migration UI, D7 migrate features not going into core such as different source plugins, etc.
• migrate_d2d module: Support for D5 and D8 sources, UI for remapping content types (i.e., support for custom Drupal-to-Drupal migrations as opposed to upgrade-all-the-things), etc.

Thoughts?

Hi everybody,

It's possible migrate from OpenScholar 2.0:RC1 to version 7.x-3.8.1 ? And how to do it?

I was following the recipe:
https://github.com/openscholar/openscholar/wiki/Migrating-openscholar-fr...,

But the os_migrate module isn't present in the 7.x-3.8.1 version, I only found the os_migrate module in the branch SCHOLAR-3.1 on GitHub, so I copied the module and installed on 7.x-3.8.1, however when I access the admin/content/migrate after configure the module I get the message error below:

Join us on Tuesday, Nov. 12, 2013, 6:30pm at Ryans Pub upstairs in Cocoa Village. We will be discussing the Migrate module.

Need to get data into Drupal, but don't know how. Well, we will tell you how to write a Drupal module to do that. The Migrate module is written using object oriented php. This discussion will explain the basic OO concepts you will need to know so that you too can write OO migration code. For the full details, please check out the "A Pain Free approach to the Migrate Module" event in groups.drupal.org/florida.

Hej!

Jag har sedan tidigare en wordpressblogg (wordpress.com), men är intresserad av att migrera denna blogg till en drupal-site. Då främst alla bloggposter. Eventuella sidor (några stycken) går lätt att fixa manuellt.

Jag försökte tidigare mig på deta genom wordpress migrate-modulen. Dock stötte jag ofta på patrull, och lyckades aldrig riktigt få över alla bifogade filer, samt behålla deras placering.

Finns det fler sätt att göra en migrering på? Kanske borde jag försöka mig mer på ovan nämnda modul? Hur skulle ni gjort?

Hälsningar
Markus

Estimados , hace unos días hubo unas charlas de CMSs en Cochabamba (Bolivia), en la que tenía especial interés ya que se trataban temas de las cualidades (y defectos) de cada CMS...
finalmente decidí migrar mi plataforma Joomla a Drupal... pero necesito algunos consejos antes de comenzar...
1) Si bien ya existe una versión 7, he encontrado módulos de migración más orientados a su versión 6, ¿qué me recomiendan ustedes? migrar a una versión 6 o una versión 7?

I've had an idea for a way of joining up Features and Migrate in order to export entities that are data rather than config. I'd be interested in what people think...

The background is that lately I'm working on a project where we have several taxonomy vocabularies that are more part of the site structure than really content, so I used the Taxonomy CSV module to export them to CSV files and wrote a quick custom module with a UI to import them back in, so our various developers could use them to get test sites up to speed.

Buenas, tengo una planificación creada en el modulo backup and migrate, de la siguiente forma: me guarda un archivo comprimido como .zip en un directorio del servidor. El caso es que me lo guarda en .gz, lo cual no es un problema ya que tengo Winrar.... pero sí lo es, ya que no me lo abre, me pone que es un archivo de formato desconocido o es dañado.
vamos que si quiero guardarlo comprimido, ya que la base de datos aumentará con el tiempo.... no me deja más que en .gz y encima dañado.... que hago? funciona mal el módulo? he de hacer algo que me pilla lejos???
un saludo y gracias

This is a collection of notes about my experience while migrating several sites to a single host.

The main site is located at a single domain, but also has several sites contained in subdomains.
eg -
Main Domain: (www).site.xxx
Sub Domain : sub.site.xxx
Sub Domain : sub2.site.xxx

The sites are running Drupal version 6.

The plan :
Access original websites over ftp and download to my 'staging' server at home.
Export the databases using the 'Backup and Migrate' module.
Test the sites are complete on the 'staging' server.

This week at DrupalCon Denver, we held a BOF to discuss the proposal at http://drupal.org/node/1052692 to incorporate some form of the Migrate module into core in Drupal 8 to handle major version upgrades.

Migrate module roadmap

Hoping someone might be able to advise. I'm trying to migrate data from an old site across to my drupal site. Ive pulled the data out from Access (dont ask) and now have it sitting in the drupal mysql database. Ive used table wizard to draw the data out and check it via a view which works nicely however when trying to use Migrate Ive now come un-stuck due to the change to Migrate V2 which has no UI (certainly not for drupal 6 anyway). Im just not upto the level of being able to use migrate v2 comfortably and was hoping someone might be able to point me in a new direction?
