Problem/Motivation

Hello!

If a Drupal 7 site is using this module - https://www.drupal.org/project/kaltura → - and they have the field_kaltura_entryid field type attached to certain nodes this will throw an error during migration.

I believe this module accomplishes the same thing but in a D8+ manner and as such we should be able to provide a migration path from D7 --> D10 using a migrate field plugin → .

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install Kaltura on a D7 site
  2. Add the field_kaltura_entryid field to a content type
  3. Create a new Drupal 10 instance
  4. Connect the D7 site to the D10 instance for migration
  5. Run drush mim d7_field:node
  6. Verify error message

d7_field:node:type: Can't migrate the '<your_d7_field_name>' field storage for 'node' entities, because the field's type 'field_kaltura_entryid' is not available on the destination site.

Proposed resolution

Provide a migrate field plugin that maps the old field type to the new one

    attaching a basic file to get started. i believe using this will at least stop the warnings/error during a migration and will allow this new field type to be set, but i believe we need to define how the underlying data gets mapped to the new field as well.

    Great start Dan!

    As you noted, the data does need to be mapped in 2 ways:

    1. D10 field property "entry_id" was field property "entryid" in D7.
    2. D10 field property "partner_id" was a Drupal variable applied to all Kaltura field values.

    The attached patch works on a sample client.

    There may be a better way to map a D7 Drupal variable to a D10 field value property. But the only examples I saw for mapping D7 variables required a "variable" source plugin, while MigrateField plugins have their own source plugin.
