localgov_forms

This module is part of the LocalGov Drupal distribution.

It provides additional configuration, styling and components for the Drupal Webform module.

Additional components

• LocalGov Forms Date - A date input field based on the GDS Date Input pattern
• LocalGov address lookup - Webform element with a configurable address lookup backend. Geocoder plugins act as backends, see installation note below.

Plugins

• Personally Identifiable Information (PII) redactor from Webform submissions: At the moment, a plugin manager `plugin.manager.pii_redactor` and a sample plugin are provided.

Dependencies

Geocoder Plugins

To use the address field look-up a Geocoder Provider is required.

UK Councils will probably want to use the free-to-them OS Places geocoder. To enable this install LocalGov Geo module and the OS Places Geocoder Provider plugin. Once these packages are installed, the *Localgov OS Places* plugin will become available for selection from the Localgov address lookup element's configuration form.

In other countries another Geocoder Provider will be required.

For automated tests the Nominatim Geocoder Provider is necessary.

Editing webforms

Webforms in Drupal are config entities, therefore are by default exported with the website configuration.
It is often desirable that webforms are built and maintained by non-developers.
To avoid the configuration being removed by deployments, install the
Config ignore module and under /admin/config/development/configuration/ignore add the following:

webform.webform.*
webform.webform_options.*
