This module allows you to take snapshots of your site. It turns a Drupal installation into a sandbox that you can use either for testing modules or setting up a public demonstration site for a module / extension / theme (you name it). Whenever you need to reset your site to a saved state a click of your mouse will do so. With cron enabled, a Drupal site can be automatically reset to a chosen snapshot in a definable interval.
Integration
- Use Demonstration Site Install Profile to use snapshots to setup a Drupal site.
Installation
- Please see current README.txt.
- To create a public demo site, also install the included Demo Reset module. This allows foreigners to play in your sandbox. For automated site resets, you need to setup crontab. If your host does not support a real crontab, you may use Poormanscron.
Outlook
- Integration with Journal module to display (recent) changes in snapshots.
- More default settings during installation of Demo module to protect our kids.
- Support for removing of (uploaded) files that have been added since the snapshot creation. This will allow sandboxes for file related modules.
