Install Services, Services views, REST server, Services API key authentication
To a view, add a Services display. Let’s say this view lists articles. In the Services settings of the view definition, set the path to /my-articles.
In my Drupal 7 project, I wanted to import data in a CSV file into a table. Not a drupal entity.
The Data module states this can be done using the Feeds module.
You can use Feeds to import RSS, Atom, CSV or OPML files into data tables.
There’s a video that implies this worked at one time.
Copied my ubuntu vm to a new box.
Network would not start. VMware settings were NAT.
ifconfig -a showed eth0 with no ip address
Oddly, /etc/network/interfaces had entry for p3p1 where eth0 normally would be.
Quite often SSH Secure Shell will crash when updating a connection profile.
I’ve never figured out why it crashes. Eventually it stops crashing. But until then, the only work-around I’ve found is to edit the connection profile manually.
The profiles are stored in
%appdata%\Roaming\SSH
The tunneling sections look like this.
My simple list block in Drupal 8 was showing the same list of contents even though Permissions by Term should have limited it. Another block of the same data was working correctly and it showed the filtered list.
I researched Drupal 8 block caching solutions and they all required custom code.
This particular block came from a View. I checked the advanced settings for the block in the View editor and saw the Caching option.
Let’s pretend you want to install the Showcase lite theme for Drupal 8.
https://www.drupal.org/project/showcase_lite
Change directory to where composer.json resides
Ex.
cd /var/www/drupal-8
And run
composer require drupal/showcase_lite
This will place showcase_lite in /var/www/drupal-8/web/themes/contrib
If your Drupal install executed by going to the website for the first time is interrupted, reset it by removing the configuraiton entires added to the end of settings.php.
You want to see this again
composer create-project drupal-composer/drupal-project:8.x-dev my_site_name_dir --no-interaction
The network on the vmware ubuntu VM was not working.
The hgfs module was not inluded so file sharing through VMWare was out as well.
In the end, a USB drive did the trick.
