This module creates the "DevelGenerate" plugin type. All you need to do to provide a new instance for "DevelGenerate" plugin type is to create your class extending "DevelGenerateBase" and following the next steps. 1 - Declaring your plugin with annotations: /** * Provides a ExampleDevelGenerate plugin. * * @DevelGenerate( * id = "example", * label = @Translation("example"), * description = @Translation("Generate a given number of example elements. Optionally delete current example elements."), * url = "example", * permission = "administer example", * settings = { * "num" = 50, * "kill" = FALSE, * "another_property" = "default_value" * } * ) */ 2 - Implement "settingsForm" method to create a form using the properties from annotations. 3 - Implement "handleDrushParams" method. It should return an array of values. 4 - Implement "generateElements" method. You can write here your business logic using the array of values. Notes: You can alter existing properties for every plugin implementing hook_devel_generate_info_alter. DevelGenerateBaseInterface details base wrapping methods that most DevelGenerate implementations will want to directly inherit from Drupal\devel_generate\DevelGenerateBase. To give support for a new field type the field type base class should properly implements \Drupal\Core\Field\FieldItemInterface::generateSampleValue(). Devel Generate automatically uses the values returned by this method during the generate process for generate placeholder field values. For more information see: https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/core%21lib%21Drupal%21Core%21Field%21FieldItemInterface.php/function/FieldItemInterface::generateSampleValue
