- This module creates the "DevelGenerate" plugin type.
- All you need to do to provide a new instance for "DevelGenerate" plugin type
- is to create your class extending "DevelGenerateBase" and following the next steps.
- 1 - Declaring your plugin with annotations:
- /**
- * Provides a ExampleDevelGenerate plugin.
- *
- * @DevelGenerate(
- * id = "example",
- * label = @Translation("example"),
- * description = @Translation("Generate a given number of example elements. Optionally delete current example elements."),
- * url = "example",
- * permission = "administer example",
- * settings = {
- * "num" = 50,
- * "kill" = FALSE,
- * "another_property" = "default_value"
- * }
- * )
- */
- 2 - Implement "settingsForm" method to create a form using the properties from annotations.
- 3 - Implement "handleDrushParams" method. It should return an array of values.
- 4 - Implement "generateElements" method. You can write here your business logic
- using the array of values.
- Notes:
- You can alter existing properties for every plugin implementing hook_devel_generate_info_alter.
- DevelGenerateBaseInterface details base wrapping methods that most DevelGenerate implementations
- will want to directly inherit from Drupal\devel_generate\DevelGenerateBase.
- To give support for a new field type the field type base class should properly
- implements \Drupal\Core\Field\FieldItemInterface::generateSampleValue().
- Devel generate automatically use the values returned by this method during the
- generate process for generate placeholder field values. For more information
- see:
