Module Manager
Module Manager allows you to find, install, update, and remove community modules directly from your Drupal site's administration interface. It provides features like searching for modules, viewing their details, and managing their installation and removal.
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.
