Every row returned, from every source, during the execution of a migration is passed through hook_migrate_prepare_row() and hook_migrate_MIGRATION_ID_prepare_row(). Using these two hooks we can augment our migration in a variety of different ways.
In this tutorial we'll:
- Discuss the use case for
hook_migrate_prepare_row() - Implement
hook_migrate_prepare_row()and use it to skip all but a select list of fields during the field migration - Implement
hook_migrate_MIGRATION_ID_prepare_row()and use it to skip all but a select list of node types
By the end of this tutorial you should have a better understanding of when hook_migrate_prepare_row() might be useful when writing your own migration, as well as how to skip rows in a migration based on conditional logic.
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?
