Invoke Hook before createMedia

Created on 19 March 2025, about 1 month ago

Problem/Motivation

In our project we need to take over custom fields into the created media entity. I know that adding a config and a form to do so is currently out of scope.
However, if the module invokes a custom hook right before the media gets created, we can map the fields in a custom module.

Proposed resolution

The module should invoke a alter-hook, containing

  • a reference to $mediaValues, so it can be altered and
  • a reference to $assetData so custom code can access the custom kontainer-fields.

I suggest the Name to be "HOOK_create_kontainer_entities_alter" (aka. the system name "create_kontainer_entities")

Remaining tasks

  • Approval of Name
  • Review
