Drupal is standing on a huge pile of midgetsAll content management systems suck, Drupal just happens to suck less.Popular open source software is more secure than unpopular open source software, because insecure software becomes unpopular fast.

Modulate: help with deploy and security

Submitted by nk on Wed, 2011-07-06 09:44

The last few days I wrote modulate. This Drupal 6 project has two important parts: a drush script copying various PHP snippets from the database into modulate.inc and modulate.module firing the copies and stopping eval from firing. The ultimate goal is that production could run with the php.ini setting disable_functions=eval. Right now, modulate works with custom block content, block visibility, node bodies, Views 3.x areas (header, footer, empty), default arguments and argument validators. Future plans include CCK textfields, custom panes, the Views customfield module and maybe even Rules (I could use help with that one) and of course a D7 port (help is welcome on that front as well -- it should be very easy). Oh and tests. Please write me tests :)
