Tech Notes : Drupal, Ubuntu, PHP, MySQL, WebDevelopment, Short-List

This collection of tech notes is a personal repository for quick reference across development and server administration. It currently includes insights on Drupal performance optimization via MySQL indexing and modules like NodeQueue, alongside practical guides for Linux image optimization and CSS workflow with SCSS, Sass, and Gulp. Notes also cover setting up Symfony, optimizing PHP, and Drupal caching with Varnish. Explorations into AR toolkits and Drupal's evolution (D8 to D9, Twig theming, Headless Drupal, permissions) are present, as are Symfony learning resources and Drupal performance modules like AdvAgg. Local development with Docker and Kalabox is documented, alongside PHP upgrades, HTML archiving, Drupal 8 API, data migration, and specific Drupal 7 features (block caching, CKEditor). Server topics include PHP version management, Varnish setup, Memcached, SSL, PHP OpCode cache, MySQL Workbench, and installation guides for various software on Linux. Even desktop customization and notes on a Drupal 8 Google Books module, Rspec, Shopify theming, Semantic Scholar, and Apache Spark are included, concluding with Drupal 8 performance testing. More Drupal 8 notes are expected, but this already offers a broad technical overview.

Drupal, Development Technical Notes Update

This serves as a compilation of recent blog updates focused on Drupal development within an Ubuntu Linux environment, primarily intended for personal tech note consolidation. The listed entries cover a range of topics including general Drupal 8 development in PHP, an early look at a contributed Google Books module for Drupal 8, quick setup notes for Drupal web development on Ubuntu 16.04, technical configurations for Drupal 7, and tutorials specifically addressing Drupal 8 migration processes. These entries represent key technical notes from the past year, with a significant portion dedicated to Drupal, though other technology-related notes, including a larger collection currently residing on Tumblr, will be integrated at a later time for a more comprehensive overview.

• Drupal 8 Development in PHP
• Drupal 8 Alpha Contributed Module: Google Books
• Ubuntu 16.04 Drupal Web Dev Quick Setup Notes
• Drupal 7 Configuration Technical-Notes
• Drupal 8 Migration Tutorials

GitHub Darrell Ulm Profile Page - Open Source Software

Posted here is a link to the profile page of Darrell Ulm for GitHub which has Open Source code in several languages such as C/C++/C#, PHP/MySQL, Assembly Language, and Unity3d.

Some projects include Unity3d/C# code for a grid based game of tile matching, some code for Koha ILS in PHP/MySQL, a game for Unity3d Tap the Object type App, a Data-Parallel Compiler Optimizer written in C, and a module for Drupal called Google Books which loads data into text fields.

GitHub is definitely a great resource for Open Source software development, software workflow, and software development in general and gets better year to year and it seems like almost everyone is using it is some way for some coded project.

Some other links to this content are: Blogger, Wordpress, and Tumblr.

Darrell Ulm at Drupal Open Source CMS Project

This is the link to the public profile of Darrell Ulm (Darrell Raymond Ulm) at Drupal.org listing Open Source projects, written mainly in PHP, MySQL for the Drupal content management system project.

Some of the projects include the Google Book project, https://www.drupal.org/project/google_books, which links up to the Google's project to archive book information. The module allows many options and ways to pull bibliographic information into Drupal text fields. This is a filter module so information is retrieved based on ISBN, ISO or other search, by title, or even by text. Individual entries can be displayed with different fields which can be set on a per item basis. There are also default settings for how to display data in general. Because there is a limit to the amount of book items that can be accessed in a time period, users can get authentication codes to allow accessing more data.

The IP Path Access module, https://www.drupal.org/project/ip_path_access, allows site administrators to restrict specified paths to only specific IP or IP ranges. These can include administrative pages, or any page as needed without having to restrict an entire site. There are also options for bypassing this access control by Drupal user role permissions.

Other modules contributed to include, Site Map, Filefield Role Limit, Sunlight Congressional Districts, and one Drupal Core patch.
