Transform role field to entity_reference

Created on 15 February 2025, about 2 months ago

Problem/Motivation

Currently the "role" field is a simple text field with a views pseudo field for getting real role name

Steps to reproduce

-

Proposed resolution

It would be better to transform it to a entity_reference field for a better views integration via relation based on core entity_reference.

Remaining tasks

  • Change field type
  • Add update hook

User interface changes

Sadly views configurations which are using the pseudo field will break.

API changes

The field type is changing.

Data model changes

The data will be stored as a string in table with an identical name.
