Drupal 9 Upgrade

Elda Schaffield

    • security update that needs to be applied

    • upgrade to Drupal 9 - we need to replace 2 modules before we can upgrade

      • Encrypt - we are not using it

      • Markdown - it is used everywhere

      • Elda hasn’t checked the custom modules to see if we will have issues

      • lots of files under root that need to be moved

      • we can do the migration and test it

      • Need 2 meetings to go over the workflow and Apigee integration with Elda.

Misc

  • Events API

    • there is a private campus M events API that Reg maintains, which was the issue.

    • Need to publish it in the portal for visibility.

    • checking with Seth on the status

  • Chartfield API - deprecated, no usage.

Meeting and group focus year 2021


  • Project focus

    • Resolve site issues after Drupal 8 migration

    • Transition the site to Elda’s team for maintenance

    • Drupal 9 migration

    • Front page redesign

    • AWS - migrate the Heroku code and the sql server database

    • Account cleanup automation

    • Identity integration and automation 

  • Apigee Support

    • 1 FTE on the apigee team to help with student development oversight and support

    • Now the students have to contact so many groups to have their accounts setup, an FTE can really help with that. Adding the functionality to developer.ucsb.edu to create accounts.

      • Drupal - OK to work with a student

      • For other projects like identity account creation and others it will be difficult to work with a student
