FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package stanford_capx
Stanford CAPx
Version 7.x-3.0-dev
Stanford CAP Extensible module builds on some great work. This module provides an interface for administrators to pull information directly from the CAP API into Drupal. This allows profile owners to continue to manage their profile information on the CAP web service and have that information automatically reflected into a Drupal website.
What is CAP?
CAP Network is a virtual workspace, originally created by the School of Medicine, to support collaboration among faculty, graduate students, postdocs and staff. In 2013, it was expanded in partnership with various Schools, Institutes, and administrative offices to create the Stanford Profiles website.
Combining a profile directory with a social networking backend, CAP makes it easy for you to work closely with colleagues and track the projects that matter most to you—all in a private, secure environment
Installation
Install this module like any other Drupal module.
Authentication
Before you get started you will need to have authentication credentials. To get authentication credentials, submit a Help request.
Configuration
For detailed documentation on the configuration and usage of this module, please see the Docs section.
Developer
GitHub page. Collaboration and bug reports are welcome. Please file bug reports on the github issues page. You are also welcome to suggest new functionality in the way of a pull request.
Also included in this package is a module called: capx_issue_collector. If you enable this module you will have a 'report feedback' button added to the bottom right hand corner of your website. This will allow you to post feedback directly to our Jira instance.
Security
HTTPS
CAPx uses https for all API calls. Please follow this best practice as you develop with this module.
httpoxy mitigation:
In July 2016, the httpoxy security exploit was announced for PHP, including libraries such as Guzzle. CAPx installs were by default protected because of https usage (see above). In addition, developers are encouraged to seek their own httpoxy mitigation steps at the server level. Check with your hosting provider to ensure that your implementation is protected from httpoxy. See https://httpoxy.org for details.
