Today, I an the idea to create a reusable template for new Drupal modules, based on how I like to build modules and how I've shown others to do so in my Drupal testing workshop.
|
|
|
|
So I did, and released it for free [on my GitHub account](https://github.com/opdavies/drupal-module-template).
|
|
|
|
Like my Tailwind CSS starter theme on Drupal.org, it's not intended to be added as a module directly, but something that can be cloned and used as a base for people's own modules.
|
|
|
|
It includes an example route and Controller that load a basic page, and has a test to ensure that the page exists and loads correctly.
|
|
|
|
The Controller is defined as a service and uses autowiring to automatically inject the its dependencies, the same as in my workshop example code.
|
|
|
|
It's the initial release so it's rough around the edges still. I'll use it tomorrow to create a new module and document the steps to add to the README as well as other pieces of documentation.

If you're creating a new Drupal module and try it out, start a discussion on the GitHub repository or [let me know on Twitter](https://twitter.com/opdavies). If you have questions, create a discussion or just reply to this email and I'll get back to you.
