Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
Example Migration - Media Gallery Drupal 6 to 8 Upgrade
This module contains all the migration configurations I used to upgrade a Drupal 6 media gallery website to Drupal 8.
The Drupal 6 site had the following content types, taxonomies and relations:
- Gallery (content type)
- Image (content type)
- Related to Gallery via node reference
- Related to 'Names' Taxonomy
- 'Names' Taxonomy
- Video or Audio Clip (not migrated)
The Drupal 8 site was structured slightly differently to use the Media Entity suite of modules:
- Gallery (node type)
- Contains Image field that relates to image media entities
- Image (image media entity)
- Related to 'Names' taxonomy
- 'Names' Taxonomy
- Video Clip (video media entity)
- Audio Clip (audio media entity)
I published this module for reference in this blog post, which walks through the entire migration development process and refers back to the code here: Migrating 20,000 images, audio clips, and video clips into Drupal 8.
