Drupal 7 Plans?

Plans, yes. Work, no.

The theory is that I just run this through some module and presto—I have D7 code! Anyone want to volunteer to try to create that patch?

I don't believe there are any architectural changes that I want to make to this module. One caveat: the sample package needs to be converted and tested as well.

Shoot, this is something I could *really* use for the newest version of Ubercart (7.x-3.0). I wish I had the necessary programming skills to help, but that's unfortunately not my field of expertise. I'll be excited to hear about any progress toward a D7 version!

Created a D7 project for commerce http://drupal.org/project/commerce_product_key the basic use case is working right now only.

any news about progress development ver.d7?

Update: I have done no work toward a D7 release nor has anyone sent me a patch. For a while, it looked like the Ubercart project had been abandoned, but there is a beta release of Ubercart 3 out right now. The Drupal project site for Ubercart seems active, but the Ubercart web site seems abandoned.

There's been some talk of Drupal Commerce as the ecommerce path for anyone using D6/Ubercart2 and wanting to move to D7, but that seems like a pretty big jump and, to be honest, I'm a bit put off by the if-you-won't-do-it-my-way-we'll-just-fork attitude—duplication of effort is discouraged for contributing modules.

As posted above, someone has implemented something for D7/Drupal Commerce. As for my development of a D7 version, it will probably happen when I need this module for a D7 installation, which means it won't happen anytime soon. If you need a D7 version, consider creating and testing a D7 version yourself or hiring someone to do it and then submit a patch.

You could hire me, of course. Think about how many hours it would take to prepare a Drupal 7 installation for testing, create the D7 module, verify that all the features still work, update the documentation, learn Git, create the D7 branch, check it all in and announce the changes. Multiply by US$70. If you've got that much loose cash, send me a message. :-)

I really could use something like this. I need a module to deal with serial numbers for products. Not generated, but actual serial numbers that need to be tracked. It looks like this could do it. Except of course, I have D7-UC3.

What would it take to get you do convert this module? Please PM me with costs and let's see if we can make it happen.

Just posting to say I support a D7 upgrade! I'm debating whether to use Ubercart or Commerce, but I would require this functionality. If I can help in some way, let me know!

Thanks for the offer. You (or anyone) could help by doing the port and testing it.

See Comment #8.

Came across this module while doing some research for a Drupal 7 Ubercart product activation issue.

I would be willing to help with the port from 6 to 7 as the features in the module are exactly what I'm looking for.

Has any progress on a d7 port happened since this thread was updated?

Do you think this module could translate over using the Coder module to help facilitate the port from 6 to 7?

Reading post #8 above, would you have an estimated cost of conversion if it came down to that, in the off chance I'm not able to figure porting it myself?

Thanks!

Hello,vip3rousmango,

Sounds great, but realistically, if you go down this path, you should have the mindset that you will do the entire thing on your own.

No progress on a D7 port has occurred.

I believe there are some tools that will help kickstart the conversion from D6 to D7 and from U2 to U3 (it's not just a Drupal upgrade, Ubercart has been updated as well).

As for an estimate, all I can do is repeat: Think about how many hours it would take to prepare a Drupal 7 installation for testing, create the D7 module, verify that all the features still work, update the documentation, learn Git, create the D7 branch, check it all in and announce the changes. Multiply by US$70.

If the number sounds like something you can afford, then contact me directly and we can talk about it.

Let me know if you have any success. Good luck!

Hi, cmcintosh,

Thanks for the suggestion. Part of the reason I haven't done the upgrade is that I not only haven't had a need for this module in a long time, I haven't even had a need for Drupal. As soon as you talk about having to learn a new API, my brain futzes out. I've heard about Entities, but don't know a thing about them other than the name. Nor have I worked with UC3 or looked at the rule system. Hopefully, if someone tackles the upgrade, your suggestions will make sense to them. If this is the right way to go, I have no problems with it.

Another blocker is that I don't have much experience with Git. I think there should now be a 7.x-1.x branch, but I won't swear to it!

I don't have a problem with adding a co-maintainer, but could you be specific about what you are volunteering for? In other words, are you volunteering to handle just creating/managing branches/releases? Installing patches? Coding? Testing? Or...?

Everyone finds it easier to write things from scratch. I've reinvented the wheel a number of times myself, but I'm not in favor of a reinvention here. Sorry—you'd first have the make a good technical case for a re-write.

As for providing extensions to make the authentication easier, that sounds fine. The module is already set up to handle these extensions. The reason I didn't include any more assistance is because I don't know about all the various methods for getting and validating licenses. If there is a system/process that is in wide use or that can be applied to different licensing solutions, then great.

The addition of SimpleTest tests would be an excellent thing to do.

It sounded a few messages ago like your plate was already full. I'm still not exactly sure what you propose bringing to the table as a co-maintainer. Perhaps we can discuss this directly and see what makes sense.

@cmcintosh
I would agree adding support for the Entity API & Field API is a needed item if wanting to bring this module into D7!

Is the dev site open for us to check out? Thanks for taking the first steps on this.

Cheers,

Vip3rousmango

Has there been any headway here? I am in need of this module. Would like to see if a dev version is available for 7 yet?

I am possibly interested in paying for dev

I have ported this module to Drupal 7. It is a pretty direct port without any unnecessary changes. I would be willing to push it to a 7.x-1.x branch here and make it available to anyone who wants to try it. FYI here is my commit log.
