Install profiles should be in their own directories
by Adrian Rossouw 08 Aug '06

08 Aug '06

http://drupal.org/node/77549 I am not going to re-hash everything I said there, but I need to say that install profiles as they are now are not really adequate for many of the things we hope to accomplish with them. I have been building install profiles in one manner of another for 2 years now, and that patch is part of what I found were the base requirements of making install profiles work.

Strip out theme functions into a .theme file
by Frando (Franz Heinzmann) 07 Aug '06

07 Aug '06

Now that we have modules in their own directories, I think we could move forward to ease pain for designers by stripping out theme functions out of the .module file into a .theme file. We already did the same for installation, and there's currently a patch in the queue to do the same for help files. Why we should move theme_* functions into a <modulename>.theme file: * ease pain for designers. Currently, they have to look through all the module code, that is not interesting for them at all, to find a theme function they want to overwrite. By having them all together in a <modulename>.theme file, it will save a lot of time and effort for them. And IMO we should take a bit more care of them, especially if it does not hurt at all. * Seperation of code and design has always been a main target. So I think it's only logical to stick to this policy here and move the V part of a module into a different file than the C part (according to the MVC pattern) best regards, Frando

Stupid install system question
by Earl Dunovant 06 Aug '06

On a clean install, if SCHEMA == 2 are the updates run or just the hook_install() function?

Administration page patch committed
by Dries Buytaert 06 Aug '06

06 Aug '06

Hello world, I committed Earl's administration page patch! Details at http:// drupal.org/node/72079. Great job, Earl. This is a big change that requires you to update your modules; you'll have to re-categorize your modules' admin pages. Earl promised to provide some guidelines to help you make the right decisions. Keep an eye on the upgrade instructions in the handbook at drupal.org. Chances are that this breaks a number of patches in the patch queue. Please take the time to re-roll them so we can continue to make progress. It's exactly 1 month to the Drupal 4.8/5.0 code freeze. Note that we're well aware that there is room for improvement so feel free to submit patches that build upon Earl's work. It's not perfect, but it is certainly a big step forward. For example, we could use some help making the administration page a tad sexier. Rock on folks! -- Dries Buytaert :: http://www.buytaert.net/
