README

parisek/drupal-kit — base library module for Drupal sites built on the PORTA component pattern. Provides shared infrastructure (services, base classes, Twig extensions, image resizer) reused across projects. The Drupal counterpart of parisek/timber-kit (WordPress).

Requires PHP 8.3+ and Drupal 10 or 11.

Installation

Published on Packagist:

composer require parisek/drupal-kit
drush en drupal_kit

What this module provides

Services

• drupal_kit.entity_helper — high-level entity loading and rendering helpers consumed by display plugins and Twig templates. Facade over the three builders below.
• drupal_kit.media_array_builder — builds the documented array shapes for Media and File entities (image, SVG, video, remote video, document, Lottie).
• drupal_kit.menu_tree_builder — renders a menu into the documented item shape (active trail, field_* enrichment, subtree scoping via params['root']).
• drupal_kit.taxonomy_tree_builder — builds nested taxonomy term trees.
• Drupal\drupal_kit\Services\Resizer — static utility: image style + focal point + responsive variant generator. Call Resizer::resizer($images, $variants) directly.
• drupal_kit.menu_active_trail_resolver — resolves the active menu trail accounting for entity references and aliases.
• drupal_kit.twig_extension — registers Twig functions used by component templates, including the typography-aware translation helpers _xt / __t / _nt / _nxt (translate, then pipe through |typography).
• drupal_kit.typography_twig_extension — provides the |typography Twig filter; delegates to parisek/twig-typography and resolves typography config from {active_theme}/static/typography.yml.
• drupal_kit.route_subscriber — alters routes for entity access edge cases.

Base classes

• Drupal\drupal_kit\ComponentBase — base for component block plugins.
• Drupal\drupal_kit\DisplayBase — base for extra_field display plugins that render components.

Filters

FilterImage, FilterLinks, FilterTable, FilterTypography, FilterYoutube — text format filters that normalize editor output into PORTA's component shape.

Required modules

Pulled automatically by Composer when you install:

• drupal/components — Twig component discovery (@component/ namespace).
• drupal/config_pages — single-instance config entities for site-wide content.
• drupal/extra_field — extra field display plugins on entities.
• drupal/twig_real_content — Twig filter to extract plain text from render arrays.
• drupal/twig_tweak — collection of helpful Twig extensions.
• parisek/twig-typography — upstream typography filter (powers |typography).

Optional integrations

The following modules are optional. When present, EntityHelper automatically exposes additional fields and renderers; when absent, those code paths gracefully no-op.

Contrib (install via Composer):

• drupal/commerce — commerce_product entity support.
• drupal/office_hours — office_hours field rendering.

Drupal core (enable via drush en …):

• comment — comment entity support (comment_body field on Comment entities).

Drupal core patches (apply via cweagans/composer-patches):

• drupal.org#2466553 — adds menu.language_tree_manipulator to Drupal core. When applied, EntityHelper::getMenu() filters menu links by the current content language. When absent, the filter step is silently skipped and menu items for all languages appear — on multilingual sites the status report (/admin/reports/status) shows a warning so the gap is visible.

Local development

Local environment is DDEV — pinned to PHP 8.3 in .ddev/config.yaml so it matches the production deploy target and CI. The database container is omitted; kernel tests use sqlite in-memory.

ddev start
ddev composer install
ddev exec scripts/dev-link-module.sh   # symlink module into web/modules/contrib + bridge web/autoload.php
ddev exec vendor/bin/phpunit

scripts/dev-link-module.sh resolves paths relative to where it runs, so it must be invoked inside the container — otherwise the symlinks point to host paths the container can't see.

Tests

Tests are self-contained — Composer scaffolds Drupal via installer-paths; PHPUnit bootstraps from web/core/tests/bootstrap.php.

ddev exec vendor/bin/phpunit --testsuite unit
ddev exec vendor/bin/phpunit --testsuite kernel

Coverage

ddev coverage is a custom command (defined in .ddev/commands/web/coverage) that runs PHPUnit with xdebug.mode=coverage and emits both clover XML and a textual summary:

ddev coverage
ddev coverage --filter ResizerTest   # any phpunit args pass through

CI uses the same flags so local + CI numbers stay aligned.

Step-debugging

ddev xdebug on    # loads xdebug in debug mode; listen on host port 9003
ddev xdebug off   # debug mode is a heavy perf hit; keep it off by default

See CONTRIBUTING.md for how to add tests and the unit-vs-kernel decision tree.

Without DDEV

DDEV is the canonical local environment, but the repo doesn't hard-depend on it — CI runs vanilla composer install + vendor/bin/phpunit against PHP 8.3 from the shivammathur/setup-php GitHub Action. If you prefer host-PHP, ensure you're on PHP 8.3 (matching CI / production) to avoid composer.lock drift.

Releasing

Tag-driven; published on Packagist, which syncs tags automatically via the GitHub webhook. Version bumps follow Conventional Commits, the public-API surface and deprecation lifecycle are defined in RELEASING.md — read it before tagging.

Distribution scope: composer require ships only the module files, src/, templates/, composer.json, LICENSE and README.md — everything development-only is export-ignored in .gitattributes.
