7.x

This release has much the same features as 7.x-1.x but has been extensively reworked to allow any entity type to work.

From 7.x-1.x to 7.x-2.x

This is a major release and you might find that the syntax of some of the Patterns might have changed/being extended. Backward compatibility with Patterns created with the syntax of 7.x-1.x branch is not supported.

Syntactic and semantic validation

The new version of Patterns allows the components to implement two separated layers of syntactic and semantic validation, providing a very valuable feedback to the user that is going to run a pattern in case it is necessary to solve any possible conflicts.

Improvement of the export functions and components extension

Improvement of the export functions and components extension. The new version of Patterns provides a set of enhancements to export automatically the configuration of a site. All the main components possess now automatic export capabilities, and depending on the type of component new options to export it are offered. Two different use cases are distinguised:

1. Export the configuration as a pattern consisting of a set of CREATE actions which allows users the creation of patterns for “fresh installation” of certain feature,
2. Export the configuration as a pattern consisting of a set of MODIFY actions
   which allows users the creation of patterns to override the current settings (e.g.,

New dev release including many new features:

- Syntantic and Semantic validation: assistance to solve conflicts.

- Automatic extraction of the configuration improved.

- Patterns server/client: new (sub)modules to allow pushing/pulling patterns (changes to allow future compatibility with them).
