Comment #1
joachim commentedGo to admin/modules/module_builder to create modules.
Comment #2
chaloum commentedJoachim
I have and all there is a link to permissions and if I go to Administration » Configuration » Development
I see:
path the hook directory
Path to write module files
module header with this in it
/**
* @file
*
*/
Module footer
Beginner and advanced radio buttons
and a save configuration.
What do I do? is this it?
The documentation mainly talks about Drush. is there any documentation on how to use this module?
thanks
Comment #3
joachim commentedNo, admin/modules/module_builder, not admin/modules
If those are both the same, clear your caches.
Comment #4
chaloum commentedNope as I said,
The location You are pointing to only has permissions and under configuration is:
path the hook directory
Path to write module files
module header with this in it
/**
* @file
*
*/
Module footer
Beginner and advanced radio buttons
and a save configuration.
Comment #5
joachim commentedAre you telling me that admin/modules/module_builder shows you the same as admin/modules?
Have you cleared your caches?
Comment #6
chaloum commentedAdmin/module only shows permissions
admin/modules/module_builder shows
path the hook directory
Path to write module files
module header with this in it
/**
* @file
*
*/
Module footer
Beginner and advanced radio buttons
and a save configuration
yes I've cleared the cache several times.
Comment #7
joachim commentedNo, you're at the wrong place.
What you're looking at is at admin/config/development/module_builder.
Try again.

aaronott commentedchaloum
By the version you opened this under, I'm going to assume that you are using Drupal7 (please let me know if I'm mistaken).
This module is a good module and very helpful in that it builds out a skeleton of a module for you. There are two main ways to use this module, either through the web interface or through drush. If you are looking at using the web interface do the following:
Login as admin
Click on Modules in the admin bar
There should be a tab at the top now called 'Module Builder' (if not please make sure the module has been enabled by scrolling down)
Click on the Module Builder tab and start playing around with some of the different options.
Click the 'Generate' button at the bottom and the code will appear in a text area box for you to copy and paste into a module file, info file and others.
If you are looking at using drush I would highly suggest you read through the help docs for module builder
drush help mb. The benefit of using drush is that Module Builder actually builds all the files for you (no need to copy and paste them).Please let me know if there are further questions.
Comment #9
gomez_in_the_south commentedI was looking all over the link too, and couldn't find it.
Turns out I had to clear my cache first, before that tab appeared in the location given (D7). Perhaps this could be added to the readme.txt.

chaloum commentedstill not working for me
Comment #12
joachim commentedLast I saw you were still not looking at the right path.
Comment #13
chaloum commentedno I'm looking at the correct path
Comment #14

Look:
Comment #15
joachim commentedComment #16
chaloum commentedI've given up on this module. it doesn't work
Comment #17
joachim commentedIt works perfectly for me and a load of other people; either there is something wrong with your setup, or, as I pointed out to you, you are looking in the wrong place.
