Drupal 7 Module Development

Recommendations

Info

Chapter 12 Each row being added to the block table contains the following information about the block: • module: The module that owns the block. • delta: The name of the block within the module. • theme: The theme the block will display within. Each theme has an individual block configuration. • status: When set to 1, the module is displayed. • weight: Used for ordering the block within a region. Larger weights are displayed below smaller weights. • region: The region in the page that the block will be displayed within. • pages: Any rules about the pages that the block will be displayed on. • cache: How the block will be cached. In Drupal 7, the sidebars were renamed for better multi-lingual support. What used to be the left sidebar is now sidebar_first and what used to be the right sidebar is now sidebar_second. Variable settings Installation profiles will often want to set their own variable settings, which are out-of-the-box, separate from those provided by Drupal core. Drupal provides the variable_set() function which can be used in an install task or in hook_install() to set a variable. For example, adding the following lines to store_install() will set the admin_theme to the Seven theme: function store_install() { ... // Set the admin theme to seven. variable_set('admin_theme', 'seven'); } [ 357 ]
Installation Profiles Text filters Text filters, known as input formats in previous versions of Drupal, are created and configured by the installation profile. In order for a site to have text filters that users can choose from, the installation profile must set up the filter first. The simplest method for setting them up is in the hook_install() function inside the profile's .install file. Continuing our example, the following code at the top of store_install() would add Filtered HTML and Full HTML text filters, with the filtered one set as the default: // Add text formats. $filtered_html_format = array( 'format' => 'filtered_html', 'name' => 'Filtered HTML', 'weight' => 0, 'filters' => array( // URL filter. 'filter_url' => array( 'weight' => 0, 'status' => 1, ), // HTML filter. 'filter_html' => array( 'weight' => 1, 'status' => 1, ), // Line break filter. 'filter_autop' => array( 'weight' => 2, 'status' => 1, ), // HTML corrector filter. 'filter_htmlcorrector' => array( 'weight' => 10, 'status' => 1, ), ), ); $filtered_html_format = (object) $filtered_html_format; filter_format_save($filtered_html_format); $full_html_format = array( 'format' => 'full_html', 'name' => 'Full HTML', 'weight' => 1, 'filters' => array( [ 358 ]
