GSoC’17 Coding period | Week #11

GSoC’17 Coding period | Week #11 | Uc wishlist

Another week has reached its aftermath and the third phase of the coding regime is about to conclude with the onset of the Final Evaluations for Google Summer of Code 2017. The time spent so far during the previous months have been a great learning experience with Drupal, with the timely help provided for the project by my mentor Naveen Valecha.

Coming to the present scenario, the majority of the port concerning the Uc Wishlist has been completed, save for some technical fixes and implementation requirements regarding the port of the final sub-module ‘Add user wish list settings’. Other than that, I would put up the alpha release of the module as soon as the current code gets reviewed. Additionally, I would propose few functional tests as per instructions from the mentor and reviews from the developers. Moreover, my code for the previous ports have been committed to the Drupal Core by my mentor and the current status of the code could be found here.

So, the work done the previous week can be stated as follows:

Work to be done next week:

Complete the remaining portion of the final port ‘Add user wish list settings’ through FAPI and Field API. Provide related plugins for encapsulating hook_search_info, hook_search_execute and hook_block_info.

Overall, the experience so far has been amazing and it’s great to advance onto the final evaluation of GSoC’17. Winding up, these were the objectives and concepts learned during the eighth week of coding phase in GSoC’17. Hope to learn many more new concepts in the coming weeks for the successful completion of the port.

Cheers!
