Extending a Widget for numeric fields.

Submitted by clemens on Fri, 2014/09/05 - 3:36pm

Looking for a HTML range field in Drupal 8 core I did not found one. First I tried to alter Number Widget but that was wrong. Just extend a suitable widget. The code is very short. But the display is not as good as one needs. Where is the min and max value? And the current value? The specs @ w3c html5 forms input range has some user agent rendering which does not give min, max or current value hints.

Beheaded on behat

Submitted by clemens on Tue, 2014/07/01 - 2:50pm

As my behavior is not driven by skills I jump into Behat or Behavior Driven Development or BDD for short to BDD Drupal 8. Installing Behat is a no brainer as written down on http://behat.org/ home page. But what if one needs extensions. That is a little asking for trouble as both Behat 2 and Behat 3 exists.

With the online service http://yuml.me one can draw some UML Diagrams. Wouldn't it be great to build that into Drupal? Checkout the new yUML module.

As we all know Drupal 8 has lots of new stuff. One of these items is based on Dependency Injection and result in a new file stored at sites/defaults/files/php/service_container/service_container_prod.php/e7000f005xxx.php and created very early during the bootstrap of Drupal. But what is it's contents?
