Configuration Managment
- Fast

- Track many items, but not all
Only for configs
module Deploy
- API
- sometimes slow
More for content
Own solution
hook_update()
variable_set()
partial sql-dump
csv/txt/json/xml/migrate
etc
Migrate content with features
Use uuid_features
-
slow & big
-
difficult to export
-
problems with managed_file images
-
problems with menus

problems with taxonomy
Functional vs Type
feature_views
feature_user
feature_permissions
feature_commerce_order
feature_shop
feature_news
feature_image_gallery
feature_forum
Use both :)
Feature = module
<?php
/**
* @file
* Code for the somename feature.
*/
include_once 'feature_somename.features.inc';
Features not revert
- If your feature includes a view views cache could cause it to remain changed; especially, the migrate module (#1)
- Other features can cause your feature to be overridden (#10)
- Adding a line in your info file (#24)
- There are hooks overriding or altering your view (#36)
- A view won't revert. So revert the view using the UI (#62)
- When Views UI is disabled, it may cause your view to be overriden (#64)
- A feature is missing an include file (#82)
