Support Token module

This is a great idea as it would make it very easy to have nodes use %uuid as their URL alias pattern in the Pathauto module.

I support this.

Could you guys work on a patch?

Thanks!

So, redicive, first impressions..

I'm using this patch right now in a live site as a test generating automatic node titles using pathauto and looks like it is working perfectly. I don't find a way to insert the taxonomy and comment tokens for now, so I'm uploading as is to get the feeling and start discussing ideas about additional tokens that should be provided by the module.

And actually it was failing because I forgot to verify the author-uuid token. There is a $node in this patch that should be $object. Will fix in the next patch with taxonomy and comment tokens included.

An updated version of the patch including the fix and a global uuid token. This is the list of current implemented tokens:

Global:
- uuid: an arbitrary uuid generated on demand not linked with any object.

Node:
- uuid: the node's uuid.
- revision-uuid: the node revision's uuid
- author-uuid: the node author's uuid

User:
- uuid: the user's uuid.

The simpletest patch at #927778: Complete simpletest testcases for taxonomy and comments is including also testcases for the token support.

Taxonomy and comment are not yet implemented, nor tested.

I did some small code style changes and committed the patch. Thanks!

Although we have a handful of tokens to work with, I'm going to move the issue to "needs work" until we have added all possible tokens.

Did you revert the commit or should be update readme.txt with the included tokens up to now? I'd accept suggestions about taxonomy and comment tokens, I didn't put these in the patch because I have no idea what tokens will be usefull.

Any advice?

Is this feature included in the 7.x version? I cant find it.

Here is a patch for Drupal7.

Adds uuid tokens for:

• nodes
• users
• terms
• files
• comments

Thanks everyone for working on this. This is finally committed to 7.x-1.x-dev and and will be in the release I'm rolling right now.

Patch at #5 applies to 6.x-1.0-beta2 but

It reports user warning: Duplicate entry '' for key 'uuid_node_revisions_uuid_key' query: INSERT INTO uuid_node_revisions (vid, uuid, nid) VALUES (16, '', 11) in /root/sites/all/modules/uuid/uuid.module on line 105.

And when bulk generating UUID nodes at /admin/settings/uuid I get a bunch of

warning: mysqli_real_escape_string() expects parameter 2 to be string, array given in /root/includes/database.mysqli.inc on line 329.

Drupal 6 core is no longer supported. We are no longer supporting 6.x-1.x versions of this module. I am closing this issue as won't fix.
