#DRUPAL 9 ATTACH LIBRARY HOW TO#
Central installation instructions (widget) to help users figure out how to install.Prevent incompatibilities due to having the same library installed more than once in different versions.No need to move the contained library out and back in. Just replace the module folder with the new one. Ease the process of upgrading a module that requires an external library.The same library can be shared by more than one site.The same library can be shared by more than one module.A simple example would be a third-party jQuery plugin. Libraries API should be used for externally developed and distributed libraries. But it is only suitable for projects that bundle their own library i.e., the module author is the creator and vendor of the library. We do not want to host third-party libraries on for a multitude of reasons, starting with licensing, proceeding to different release cycles, and not necessarily ending with fatal errors due to conflicts of having the same library installed in multiple versions.ĭrupal 7 only has built-in support for non-external libraries via hook_library(). External libraries Denotes libraries ( "plugins") that are neither shipped nor packaged with a project on. sites//libraries for contributed modules. This module introduces a common repository for libraries in sites/all/libraries resp. The common denominator for all Drupal modules/profiles/themes that integrate with external libraries. Please consider supporting Ukraine in a fight for their freedom and safety of Europe. This module is maintained by Ukrainian developers.
