CiviNode is a module and API that exposes CiviCRM contacts, groups, and other CiviCRM object types to Drupal as nodes. It's designed to make CiviCRM easier to use and integrate with all of the Drupal tools and techniques you've come to know and love. For example, once you've mirrored a CiviCRM contact into Drupal, you will be able to:
- Catagorize it with taxonomies
- Attach event or location information
- Track what's happening with the contact with a work-flow
- Control the way it displays by theming it.
The project will also include:
- An "easy-to-use" wrapper API for handling common programming tasks that modules using CiviCRM can use.
- Support for CCK: you can add a "contact" or a CiviCRM group to your new content types, with support for formatters.
- Support for Views: you can display contact fields (e.g., 'first_name', 'sort_name', 'city', 'phone'), or display a contact using CiviCRM profiles.
Work on this project is being done by Rob Thorne of Torenware Networks, and been sponsored by the generous support of The Communications Initiative, the Green Party of Canada, The Collective Heritage Foundation/Bioneers, and Openflows Community Technology Lab.
