1.x isn't supported apparenlty

Seems silly not to apply this especially considering they still haven't got a final 2.x release out. I'd similarly came to this patch.

drewish, yea we're not maintaining the 1.x code at all or advising anyone to use it. We came to the conclusion that the approach we took in that series wasn't the right one, and have abandoned it. The 2.x branch has an RC now, and should be going stable very soon.

Or is there something preventing you from moving to 2.x?

jmiccolis, well aside from the fact that there's no upgrade instructions? ;)

ouch.

:)

Ok, off the top of my head:

1. Save "strongarmed" variables to the database. (Go to the appropriate pages and hit "submit")
2. Out with the old... in with the new... (upgrade that sucker!)
3. If you're using features, and I'm sure you are, add declarations to your .info file like 'features[variable][] = "imageapi_jpeg_quality"' and run `drush features-update MY-MODULE`

fin.

PS let me know if this works for you and we should probably add something like this to the README.txt or similar.

PPS Strongarm 2.x works differently than Strongarm 1.x - it's less strong now. It won't override values that are in the database, just ones that module authors thought were good ideas.

Okay well that much was on the project page. But we're not using features, does it even make sense to use the module without?

Not using features you say? Ctools does the lifting here, so you can still use strongarm. The hook is a bit more verbose now (the particulars of the format are handled via ctools), but pretty straight forward still. For example:

function atrium_strongarm() {
  $export = array();
  $strongarm = new stdClass;
  $strongarm->disabled = FALSE; /* Edit this to true to make a default strongarm disabled initially */
  $strongarm->api_version = 1;
  $strongarm->name = 'user_pictures';
  $strongarm->value = TRUE;

  $export['user_pictures'] = $strongarm;
  return $export;
}

I know that ctools has a bulk exporter that could work here, but I haven't tested that with strongarm at all.
