I use fileframework with bitcache and want to deploy node type "file". Has anybody worked on it or plans about?

Where is most up to date code checked in, seems in cvs ? http://drupalcode.org/viewvc/drupal/contributions/modules/deploy/

Why is http://git.drupalcode.org/project/deploy.git not up2date? I thought i read it's converted from cvs frequently?

thanks for the useful module .

It sounds like it's a regular node type you are trying to deploy? The Deploy module supports deploying content type with help from the Content Type Export module shipped with CCK. The configuration that is not covered by that export, won't be deployed, though. But that is a general Drupal/CCK problem rather than a Deploy problem.

To answer you other questions, all the most recent code is in CVS. I don't know about the status of the Git migration. But don't assume that repo is up to date until the whole migration for drupal.org is done.

Related issues: +#2601374: File deployment

File deployment (using the entity api they are entities of type 'file') works great.

see the related issue for details. In Drupal 7 it works great as I described in the related issue.

  1. The easiest way to make file deployment work using admin_views and bulk operations is this:
  2. Upgrade to the deploy 7.x-3.x-alpha1 (latest version as of I write this)
  3. Install the "deploy_plus" module
  4. Then go to the admin/structure/views/view/admin_views_file
  5. click on "bulk operations"

    see illustration:
  6. illustrate selection of views bulk operations for adding file entity to managed deploy plan
  7. then from the list: put a checkmark here:
    " Manage entity in deployment plan "
  8. Now you can deploy files in batch with bulk-operations at admin/content/file

It is easiest to do it with the built in capabilities of deploy_plus as I described above.

IMHO, deploy_plus works so well, it should be included as a sub-module to deploy.. However for now its a separate module that depends on deploy.

Alternatively, if you want to do it the harder way with rules (possibly without deploy_plus) , that works too, you can make a custom rule and then select it in views bulk operations, however why do this when you can just enable deploy_plus? More info about rules in the video below:
