#Drupal 7 modules code#
Modules are examined for compliance with the Drupal 7 secure coding guidelines as well as for common web application vulnerabilities (Cross Site Scripting, SQL injection, authentication bypass, remote code execution, file inclusion, information disclosure, etc.). While this review is not a surefire guarantee of security, it does insure a certain degree of safety in the module code. Before modules can be installed on our production environments they must be reviewed by information security staff. Then we append the copy to the end of the array.The School of Arts and Sciences Information Security and Unix Systems (ISUS) regularly audits Drupal modules to ensure security and stability. In this implementation of hook_module_implements_alter we do this by copying our implementation and removing it from its original position in the array of all implementations. Assuming we want to display the results randomly and we have implemented hook_views_pre_render. To resolve the problem of re-ordering hook implementations, the hook_module_implements_alter() was introduced in Drupal 7. However, your module is likely to have more than one hook implementation, and you may want to run them differently.

#Drupal 7 modules update#
This database update will change the position of your custom_hooks_demo module in the array of modules and make sure the hooks in the module get fired first: // Drupal 6/7ĭb_query("UPDATE SET weight = 10000 WHERE name = 'custom_hooks_demo'")

Prior to Drupal 7, in order to run a module's hook implementations first or last one may write an SQL query to update the weight column of the system table. For example, in a hook_form_FORM_ID_alter you want to have the final say in the ordering of the elements. For instance, where there are multiple implementations of the same hook, the modules are ordered by weight and filename and the functions executed accordingly.Ī problem arises when your requirements make it necessary either to run your hook implementation first or last. The lower integers come first - lighter values float to the top of the list. When going through certain processes on a set of modules, Drupal orders them by the weight column in the system table and filename. The architecture in Drupal 8 is different so, this is mainly managed by the ModuleHandler and Extension classes. That is what happens in the system_rebuild_module_data() function in Drupal 7. Then the records in the system table are updated based on the array of file data. To gather information about available modules, Drupal scans certain directories and builds an array of data keyed and sorted by the module filename without the extension which is the machine name of the module. modules/foo.module) and if there was a hook called bar, the engine will call foo_bar() if this was exported by your module.Īlthough the Content Management System (CMS) has undergone a lot of changes since those early days, modules and hooks still play a great role even in Drupal 8. This is done by iterating through the modules directory where all modules must reside. In places where hooks are made available, the engine calls each module's exported functions.

The module and hook systems are as old as Drupal.
