In this lesson we're going to take a look at creating relationships between two Drupal nodes during a migration. In our case we've got player and team nodes, and each player node has an entity reference to a team node which we need to populate during our migration. In order for this to work we need to ensure that the team node has already been created so that we know the unique node.nid to use in the entity reference field for the player.
To accomplish this we're going to write a migration for team data and ensure that it is run prior to our player migration being run. Then we're going to make use of the mapping between source and destination rows that the Migrate module is tracking for teams so that during a player migration we can lookup the corresponding team node's nid and make use of it.
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?
