This month I (@hectoriribarne (http://iribarne.com) talked about using two new modules that I am writing for "No Code Content Migration". These modules let you move content around between Drupal sites without writing any code, but still allowing you to use the Migrate module to manage importing your content. Here are the details of what was presented:

  • Show traditional approach for importing CSV files with the Migrate module (WITH code)
  • Export CSV files with the Contentout module (Content to CSV). Live create the first de Drupal 7 demo site (Contentout)
  • Import CSV files with the Contentin module (CSV to dynamically registered migrations). Live create the second de Drupal 7 demo site (Contentin)
  • Use the devel module to show the internals of the Contentout and Contentin modules

The code and CSV files for the traditional approach for importing content from CSV files using the Migrate 2.6+ module can be found here: http://browarddrupal.org/PastMeetings/march-2015

The code for Contentout and Contentin is still in the works (pre-alpha at this point).

We had three remote participants via Skype/Join.me and four in the meeting room.
