From the archive! Drupal 10: Testing Migration Process Plugins
Creating migration process plugins is quite easy in Drupal. What isn't easy is fixing things in content after the migration has run.
This article goes over creating a migration process plugin, and then writing unit tests for it. Essential if you want to ensure that they change content correctly before running the migration.

Drupal's migration system allows the use of a number of different plugins to perform source, processing, and destination functions. Process plugins are responsible for copying and sometimes manipulating data into the destination. There are a number of different process plugins that allow you to get data in different ways and and apply it to your destination fields.Both the core Migrate module and the excellent Migrate Plus module contain a number of different process plugins that you can use to process your data in different ways.

This is part three of a series of articles looking at HTMX in Drupal. Last time I looked at using HTMX to run a "load more" feature on a Drupal page. Before moving onto looking at forms I thought a final example of using HTMX and controllers to achieve an action.

New! Drupal 11: Building A "Load More" Feature For Paginating Nodes Using HTMX
In this article a controller action is created to load some pages of content to display them as a list.
New items can be appended to the existing list using a HTMX callback, creating a load more feature.

Following on from my last article, an introduction to HTMX in Drupal, I wanted to start looking at examples of HTMX being used to power interactivity in Drupal in different ways.I thought a good place to start this off would be to look at using HTMX in a simple controller. By creating a route to a controller we can render content and then inject HTMX attributes to perform actions with the same controller.
From the archive! Drupal 9: Extending Drupal Base Classes Without Overriding Constructors
This article details a technique for injecting dependencies into constructors, forms, and plugins without needing to override the constructor.
We break down how to use dependency injection and what the technique does to improve this in Drupal.
Despite the article being written for Drupal 9, the technique is still relevant in Drupal 11.

#drupal #drupalDevelopment #hashbangcode
I have been using the Drupal dependency injection system for a while now, even giving talks and writing articles on the subject. As the release of Drupal 10 is just around the corner I have been thinking more about how to override dependencies to plugin classes.
New! Drupal 11: Making Interactive Elements With HTMX
HTMX is a JavaScript library that allows you to make ajax calls and create CSS transitions without writing any JavaScript code.
In this article we will look at how HTMX is integrated into Drupal, and what services exist to help you use it within the Drupal system.
https://www.hashbangcode.com/article/drupal-11-making-interactive-elements-htmx
#drupal #htmx #drupalDevelopment #hashbangcode
HTMX is a JavaScript library that allows you to make ajax calls and create CSS transitions without writing any JavaScript code. It works by adding attributes to HTML elements, which it then uses to set up and perform ajax requests, swap elements, and a few other things.It was added to Drupal in version 11.3.0* and gives developers the ability to create interactive elements using render arrays and HTML attributes. The intent is to replace the entire ajax sub-system with one built around HTMX, and there is quite a lot of work ahead to accomplish this task.

Drupal Canvas (Experience Builder) limits WYSIWYG editing within its own text formats. Use the Canvas Full HTML module to remove these limitations, giving content editors full control over their rich text content.
