-- SUMMARY --
|
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
Migrator aims to become a generic migration module to convert an existing site
|
| 6 |
to Drupal. It has been developed to support various other/external/remote
|
| 7 |
systems, like Joomla!, Wordpress, aso. through modularized/out-sourced data
|
| 8 |
retrieval functions. It allows to map existing user roles and users, so that
|
| 9 |
a Drupal site can be pre-built and, for example, all contents of the remote
|
| 10 |
system user 'administrator' (with uid 123) can be mapped to the existing Drupal
|
| 11 |
user 'admin' (with uid 1). All non-mapped objects will get new object ids upon
|
| 12 |
migration.
|
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Currently, support for Joomla! 1.0.x is on the way. Optional support for
|
| 15 |
additional remote system modules (or in other terminologies like Joomla!:
|
| 16 |
Components) is planned.
