Create a new module for movie imports, which will display a form when the user navigates to a page.

Make SQL queries in Drupal, make HTTP requests to external websites, and use this data to validate a form.

Use a form submit hook to pass information down the form API and create a node programmatically.

Create an image file programmatically and attach a file to a node.

Create an install hook to pre-define a list of films to import.

Create a custom Drush command, which makes use of re-usable functions within our Movie Import module.

Create an administration form to save information about how the movie importer works by using variables.

Create a permissions hook to secure access to pages within Drupal.

Learn how to use Features to manage configuration changes and understand the configuration change workflow in a team environment.

Configure basic settings which affect performance, and perform basic analysis to understand what might be affecting website performance.

Use hooks to update the database tables and alter form elements.

Create autocomplete fields and menu hooks.

Add user data to the database from an existing form.

Display custom content using a render array.

Render content which can be refreshed via Ajax.

Create a custom block with details from the database containing information about user preferences.

Every Drupal module needs a *.info.yml file; the basic structure of a form controller class and related routing is the same for every form; and much of the code required to create a custom content entity type is boilerplate annotations and extending base classes. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a way to automate some of that repetitive work? Drush can be used to speed up module development by generating scaffolding code for event subscribers, forms, services, module files, routing, and much more. These generators are provided by the Drupal Code Generator project. They're neatly bundled up in Drush under the drush generate command.

Before Drush 9, there were no code generators in Drush, but the Drupal Console project provided them. That project and its code generators, have languished since the release of Drupal 9. While it can still be used, and is often referenced in tutorials about Drupal, we much prefer the code generated by Drush at this point.

In this tutorial we'll:

• Learn about the Drupal Code Generator project
• Learn how Drush integrates with this project
• Demonstrate the drush generate command and its options

By the end of this tutorial, you'll know how to use the drush generate command to speed up development for your Drupal modules.

A multisite Drupal installation allows you to host multiple, separate websites while relying on the same set of code. Large organizations often rely on a multisite installation to cut down on the operational upkeep of multiple sites. Hosting a multisite in Docker poses several additional challenges. Fortunately, the process is not dissimilar from configuring a bare-metal server to run a multisite.

In this tutorial, we'll:

• Outline a multisite's additional requirements for Docker containers.
• Configure alternate, local domain names to resolve each site.
• Learn how to configure a multisite to use alternate domain names.
