Update 7001

File

./eck.install, line 212

This install file creates a table for the this module to store information about entities. Well, the only information that it needs to store is a name and a label for each entity created, the rest of the information is generated by the functions.

Code

function eck_update_7001() {

  // For importing and exporting things it is always good to have a uuid, so we
  // will add that colunm to the current entity types.
  // Now we add a type (bundle) to the table for each entity in the eck table.
  $results = db_select('eck', 't')
    ->fields('t')
    ->execute();
  foreach ($results as $record) {

    // Also we want to add a field to all the enity tables for the type, and
    // populated with the current type.
    db_add_field("eck_{$record->name}", 'uuid', array(
      'type' => 'char',
      'length' => 36,
      'not null' => TRUE,
      'default' => '',
      'description' => 'The Universally Unique Identifier.',
    ));
  }
