module_manager

Module Manager is a Drupal module that makes it easy to search, install, update, and remove community modules from Drupal.org directly through your site's administrative interface.

Features

- Search and filter available modules from Drupal.org.
- View details, releases, and links for download/source code.
- Automated module installation (with dependency validation).
- Remove and uninstall modules via the interface.
- List modules installed via Module Manager.

Installation

1. Enable the module via Drupal Admin or Drush:
drush en module_manager -y

2. Create the required folder for module extraction:
mkdir -p /path/to/docroot/modules/module_manager_contrib

3. Set the folder permissions to the Apache user (example for www-data):

chown www-data:www-data /path/to/docroot/modules/module_manager_contrib
chmod 775 /path/to/docroot/modules/module_manager_contrib

> Note: Apache must have write permission to this folder so Module Manager can extract and move downloaded modules.

Usage

- Go to the administration menu and look for "Module Manager" to search, install, or remove community modules.
- Use the search and category filters to find compatible modules.
- To install a module, click "View" and then "Install" on the desired version.
- To remove, use the "Remove module" option on the module details screen.

Requirements

- Drupal 10 or higher.
- Write permissions for the Apache user on the `docroot/modules/module_manager_contrib` folder.

Security

- Only modules with security coverage, stable releases, and compatible with your Drupal version are listed.
- The module validates dependencies before installation.
