D7 to D8 upgrade: fields, widgets and formatters

For fields, their widgets and their formatters, most of the hook-functions in D7 are replaced in D8 by classes with annotations.

At the time of writing, hooks still required to create the basics of a field are:

  • hook_field_schema() implementation in the /modules/modulename.install file
  • hook_field_info() and hook_field_is_empty() implementations in the /modules/modulename.module file

All the widget and formatter hooks have been retired. Here's what you'll have to add to re-instate the functionality provided by your widget and formatter hook implementations.
In the /modules directory you need to create the following files, each holding a class and its magic annotations.

  • modulename/lib/Drupal/modulename/Type/ModuleNameItem.php
  • modulename/lib/Drupal/modulename/Plugin/field/widget/ModuleNameDefaultWidget.php
  • modulename/lib/Drupal/modulename/Plugin/field/formatter/ModuleNameDefaultFormatter.php

Panopoly Apps Data Model

Content Types, Users, and Other Entities

In all probability, your app will add a few new fields to existing data models or create some new entities.

Create a Namespace

All machine names should be namespaced with the title of your app. For example, all Panopoly News fields, content types and views have "panopoly_news" applied to them.

Where to extract the players?

Once you got any of the above audio players you have to create a new folder called "player "at this
directory "sites/all/libraries". Now you can unzip the audio players directly into the "player" folder.
If you wish to save players in different folder you can change it from admin/settings/audiofield and enter new path under "Audio Players Directory".

Modify attributes of a form field (EXAMPLE: ADD SIZE attribute of a multi select box to make it bigger)

Goal:

ADD(or or modify) an attribute of a form field.
For this example, we'll be ADDING the "size" attribute to a multi select box in a custom content type, with the intent to make the select box bigger, vertically, so that more options are visible at once.

What you'll need to know:

  1. How to create and enable a custom module (not covered here)
  2. my_form_id (The form ID of the form you want to change, see previous page for details)
  3. my_field_name (The field name of the form field you want to modify, see section below for details)
  4. my_content_type (The content type you're changing the fields for. Don't worry if you're not dealing with a content type form, the below info applies to just about any form you'll likely come across).

The resulting code:

<?php
/**
* Implements hook_form_alter().
*/
function mymodule_form_alter(&$form, $form_state, $form_id) {
  if(
$form_id == 'my_form_id'){
   
$form['my_field_name'][ $form['my_field_name']['#language'] ]['#size'] = '20';
  }
}
?>

The What, Where, and Why:

  if($form_id == 'my_form_id')
This IF statement is important if you you do not want to process every form on your site with this modification.
