Features driven development -- the nitty gritty and thoughts on the future of sustainable "in code" development | aWebFactory

Thu, 02/02/2012 - 06:56 -- rprice

Modern multitier software architecture allows us to separate concerns when we are building a web application. For example, when there is a request to visualize a content item in Drupal, the request is handed off to a logical handler (module), which should be using some kind of API to read the necessary data from the database. And once it has assembled that data it should invoke the theming engine and its current theme in order for the final output to be rendered all ready to be sent back to the browser that made the request in the first place.

Multistep | drupal.org

Thu, 01/19/2012 - 14:53 -- rprice

Multistep adds multiple-step functionality to content type editing forms. It does so by assigning a step number to each fieldgroup within the content type and hiding all the groups that do not belong to the current step. The user can then use different submitting buttons that will redirect to the previous, next, or current step.

Adaptive Image | drupal.org

The Adaptive image module provides device-appropriate versions of images from your fields.
You can activate adaptive images by adding an adaptive effect to any of your image styles.

The used technique is derived from http://adaptive-images.com/ by Matt Wilcox.
The hard work is done by Drupal core no need for any additional rewrites.
If image styles work on your website, this module will too.

vCard | drupal.org

Thu, 01/12/2012 - 18:51 -- rprice

The vCard module adds a vCard download link to every users profile. This link makes it easy to add users on your Drupal site to your local address book. Since we love microformats, there is also a theme function (theme_vcard) for displaying user data in the hCard format.
