csv

This month, I ( https://twitter.com/hectoriribarne https://www.iribarne.com/ ) presented "From CSV to Drupal 8 site - Part 1." Who needs lorem ipsum when you can build your Drupal 8 site from data in CSV files. This presentation covered how to export content and users from a Drupal 7 site to CSV files, and importing them into Drupal 8 without having to write custom code!

The presentation was divided into the following portions:

1) Exporting users from a Drupal 7 site and importing them into a Drupal 8 site:

I have written a new module Entityforms that allows user to create front-end forms that are entities. The submissions are also fieldable entities. I was wondering if there is a module that can export any Entity type, not just nodes and users, into csv files. I would want the ability to bulk export the submission entities(or any entity) to csv files.

I know I can do this with Views Data Export but I would have to make the view for each entity type.

I have converted an MSSQL export to MySQL. Exported to CSV for import. Are their any field mapping tools for Drupal or am I doomed to write my own script?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Not sure it's possible with the feeds's UI to do that. But it's what i need to do !!

Things i can do, separately:
- With feeds module i can import and do mapping with a CSV file everything i want like taxonomy.
- I can also import some RSS feeds, with a taxonomy, one by one, thru the UI.

What i'm searching so hard: do both things together.

I explain:
- I use this type of CSV file:
URL,Title,Taxo1,Taxo2
url1,1rs feed title, category1,type1
url2,2nd feed title, category2,category2
url3,13rd feed title, category2,type1

We are working on several online shops using Drupal + the e-commerce package. At the moment we are looking into integration with backend systems and datafeeds. Using either Drupal modules or programs which will interact directly with the drupal/e-commerce database.
