darrellhq commentedIt surprises me at the lack of interest for modules to be upgraded to version 6
Comment #10
drupalina commentedI'm getting the suspicion that this module is totally abandoned. Check out the issue queue. I myself have posted 2 issue queue and there was no reply so far.
I don't know what's the procedure when a module gets abandoned. Should a new coder take it over?
Comment #11
andypost@drupalina check this http://drupal.org/node/251466
Comment #12
darrellhq commentedThat would be a good idea if someone is interested in taking up the job. Adding this to one of the drupal 6x modules such as UR or Friendlist would be a powerful combination.

hannad commentedI have taken the 5.x dev snapshot and converted it to 6.x with with the deadwood module. I updated the hook_init() function but it errors out when you goto "invite/import". The converted version is attached
'm fairly new to programming for Drupal so this is not 'working' yet. However, it does activate when you add it via the modules admin screen.
Can someone help?

andypostModule http://drupal.org/project/invite already gets 6-dev so need testing in integration
Comment #15
hannad commentedYeah, I am running invite 6dev. Going to the main url
http://www.konnectim.com/invite
I don't see any integration at all. I think the hooks are not quite right. Can someone help me troubleshoot?

Hi, I am interested in getting this to work.
Were you able to get the admin page to show. I tried your version but nothing comes up.
Maybe we can try to sort this thing together.
Best.

hadsie commentedI've gone through and got this more or less working on D6. The main problem in it was the the module_load_include calls weren't being used properly.
Anyway, I couldn't get the gmail code to work properly (I think google may have moved things around or something), but this code doesn't appear to be under the GPL anyway and should probably use the Google Contacts API instead of the username/password method.
I didn't test any of the other services.
Comment #27
avpaderno+1 for the port.
I have the feeling this module is not maintained anymore. I will start the procedure, if nobody started it.
Edit: there was already a support request about the developing state of the module. The maintainer replied just to say that he does not have time to develop it (in other words, he abandonated the module).
I passed the report to the correct queue; if anybody would take the ownership of the module, please add a comment in that report (#336668: DCL_Importer seems abandoned).

neokrish commentedHi everyone,
I am also one among you waiting for this module to be imported to D6. Since, I needed a module of this kind very urgently, I tried to do it myself with a lot of variation. Basically, I have used OpenInviter (openinviter.com), free, opensource library to import contacts and pass on them to invite module. I am attaching the module for the community to review and see if this is of any value to drupal community. I know there are a lot of things that it lacks in terms of commenting, code style etc... but what I have done is just a little baby step towards a module that we all seek for. I will take up your suggestions and implement them in the module.
seeking the community support.
Thanks,
neokrish
Comment #29
neokrish commentedHi everyone,
I used the coder module and have cleaned up a bit... but sure enough there is lot more to do. As I said earlier, it's just a single step ahead from getting struck with the current status of this module.
[edit] after submitting this, i noticed that the module gave errors in getting the contact details. It was because, I emptied the config.php file in OpenInvite dir of the zip file I attached. so here is a small patch for it.
Please enter the above code in config.php and everything should work as desired. I tested with gmail and it worked fine. It should in theory work the same way with other providers. Let me know if you find any errors.
thanks,
neokrish

add1sun commentedSince there is a D6 version in CVS now and tarball rolling, this issue is fixed. Future problems with the D6 code should be opened as new issues.
