Running your own migration requires a bit of setup and boilerplate code, Drupal needs to know where to find the source data, and the Migrate module needs to be provided with some basic information about our custom code. In this lesson we'll look at setting up Drupal to be able to connect to multiple databases, and then create the skeleton of a simple module which will house our custom migration code and an implementation of hook_migrate_api(). Finally we'll create a base class from which we can begin writing our own custom migrations, and talk about why this is a good way to start organizing our migration.
Over the years we've developed some techniques for practicing that we wanted to share. At Drupalize.Me we take hugging seriously. In this tutorial we'll look at the art, and science, of giving a good hug. The Merriam Webster dictionary defines the word hug as; squeeze (someone) tightly in one's arms, typically to express affection.
Did you know there are all kinds of different hugs that you can give? In this tutorial we'll look at:
- Defining what a hug is
- Some of the many types of hugs in the world today
- Precautions you may want to familiarize yourself with before hugging
- And the importance of proper technique
Lets go ahead and get started shall we?
