The code for NodeTable module is substantially written and has been tested by several people so far. A few bugs still need to be worked out, but it is ready for wider testing on additional setups.

If anyone has time to test it in a development environment, we'd be grateful. Please let us know below and we'll either get you the code in a tarball or hurry up and get it posted here as a .dev release.

Some intro documentation is coming soon, but if you are familiar with TableManager module (http://drupal.org/project/tablemanager), it works very much like that.

It is designed for D6 only.

At this time, the module is not ready for production sites.

ok, very good. thanks for your interest.

we've actually just gotten an updated version last night. it looks to have cleaned up most of the remaining issues we've identified.

i will do some quick tests myself in the next day or so. if it seems in order, then i will post to this thread for you to try.

quick update:

after some delay on my part due to busy schedule, i've done a thorough test of the latest version of the module. some key bugs have been fixed and we are very close to fully working version, but there are still a few remaining ones that we need to sort out.

i figure we should wait until the obvious things are completed before sharing it with you, but am also happy to share now if either of you wants to see how it is shaping up. if so, just let me know and i will post the latest version here.

Please post the latest version here and I will test it.

thank you, fuzzion.

there are a few small things the developer is working on. he says he will post a new version this week to drupal.org. it'll be a .dev release, but has been extensively tested for some time.

i will post here when he puts the thing up just so you all know.

Great news John! I will test the dev module when it has been released.

fyi, from the developer:

"Turned out that these bugs are a bit more challenging than I first thought, so it takes a few more days to fix them."

Any success with the bugs? :)

hi:

sorry. the developer says he's not had time to work on any of the bugs. he says he will post the module to d.o. anyway as an alpha and maybe that'll spur some additional work. i'm not sure when that will happen. hopefully soon.

thanks for your patience.

fuzzion, others, please give it a try when you have time. please report any bugs or feature requests as new, separate issue. please don't post them here.

i will be posting my short list of issues within the next day or two.

How to call data table in Views???

john.kenney’s picture

@sonnyvedder: i have never tried to use it with views - i have no use case for it and can't think of a situation where i'd want to try it.

but apparently you need it, so did you actually try to do this and it didn't work? or you are just asking the question for someone to tell you the answer?

if the former, please explain what you tried and what happened. if the later, please try it yourself and report back if any problems.

in theory, i assume you can pull nodetable nodes into views. not sure why you wouldn't be able to do that. i think the problem is going to be with how much of the node / table to call. if you are allowing sorting, then calling a part of the table might create a mess.

but someone needs to actually give it a try and see what happens. since you have the need, hopefully that'll be you.

thank you.

Hello.
There is one problem, that I cannot solve with this module. Especially with access to the content of the tables. When I mark "access tables" in "Access rights", the User (doesn't make any difference - registered or not registered) can add, edit, or delete the data in the table, part or complete table. How is it possible to define the access to the result, and not to edition of the document?
