Problem/Motivation

If you install, configure, and then uninstall the quant modules, the data remains.

Steps to reproduce

  • Install Drupal 7
  • Enable and configure quant and quant_api modules
  • Use devel_generate to generate content including image files
  • Go to Seed tab (/admin/config/services/quant/seed)
  • Check: Export nodes (Article, Basic page), Export taxonomy terms, Export theme assets, Export Views, Custom routes (/node)
  • Click Save configuration button
  • Go to Queue tab and you should see items listed
  • Disable and uninstall quant and quant_api modules
  • Enable quant and quant_api modules
  • Go to Queue tab
  • Result: The items from the previous install are shown
  • Expected result: There shouldn't be any queue items
  • Note the same issue is for the Quant, Seed, API, and Token tabs. Any changes you made there before remain.

    • Proposed resolution

    Add hook_uninstall code to each module to remove variables set in the settings form. The queue table will be removed automatically.

    Remaining tasks

    1. Update code
    2. Review and test
    3. Commit :)

    User interface changes

    API changes

    Data model changes

    Not really the data model, but old settings will be removed.
