Alexander Allen's sandbox: Entity Example

This module aims to provide a developer friendly, ready to use, barebones implementation of a custom Entity.

The master branch provides a single, hardcoded entity (bundles are not supported), lacks entity revisioning support, and the only CRUD operation supported is save(). At a total of 16 functions, 4 files, one class and one method - the mater branch is recommended for understanding what is the bare minimum needed to create a custom Entity by code - using the Drupal core Entity API only.

The bundles branch adds bundle and automatic CRUD support with the help of the Entity API contributed module.

This module was inspired by the Profile2 and Model modules. This module is simpler than Model in that it uses the default UI and Entity controllers. If you're already comfortable with Entities, you should refer to the Model module instead for help with creating custom UI and Entity controllers.
