NetBeans 6.5 Support for Drupal 6.x - plugin detailDrupal is an open-sourced Content Management System (CMS) that can be used to host a web-site with pluggable components like blogs, forums, posts, feeds, editorials, triggers, etc. NetBeans is an open-sourced IDE for primarily developing Java based desktop/mobile/web applications. Apart from these, it also provides support for a variety of other programming languages like C, C++, Ruby, etc. In an effort to combine both and extract the richness, we are providing support for Drupal 6.0 in NetBeans 6.1 IDE. As a part of this, for the first phase, we have documented the steps to be followed to host a Drupal based website through NetBeans. This would include downloading the Drupal CVS (PHP files) through NetBeans CVS plugin, creating a new PHP project, configuring the project with Apache WebServer and uploading and running the website through the IDE. In the second phase of the project, we have developed a Wizard plugin for assisting the development of a Drupal Module. The plugin provides a wizard to create a 'New Drupal Module' and on entering the details in the form, the necessary files with the template code would get generated automatically. Also, we are providing a palette based support in which we enable the generation of code snippets for Drupal library based and user-defined hooks, through the palette for PHP files. A wizard for creating a new Drupal Theme has been recently added into the plugin. It generates the theme under the 'sites/all' folder along with the mandatory '.info' file.

It works with all current versions of NetBeans and supports also Drupal 7 and Drush.

I have the same problem as glen. Just versions of plugins are different. I am using Netbeans 7.0.1. I cannot find any Editor Library plugin.

Location of the new module
@poka_dan :
Good point identified. Actually, I have incorporated the needed code to generate the new module under sites/default folder wherein the user modules are supposed to code. The code is available in the CVS and I will soon provide the 'nbm' file along with some other modifications in the wizard.

Location field for module made editabe
Hi I'm an itermediate level Drupal developer and I like your plugin a lot..
Ony one request: Could you make the path to the module files editable. I mean /modules is not the best place to put custom modules in.. Thanks, Dan
