Content Distribution

The content distribution module is for managing distribution of content from a single central website to one or many remote websites via web services.

A typical set-up includes one single 'content distributing' Drupal instance with 1-many 'content receiving' Drupal instances.

This module ties in with the nodequeue module to allowing 'queueing' of content on the content distribution instance. The remote sites may then subscribe to any nodequeues available on the distributing site and receive content which is added to these queues over web services.

Status

• 6.x-1.3 should work with Services 6.x-0.15. This branch is no longer being actively developed; and although bugfixes from the new branch are being backported, no maintainers are currently using this release. Test the release and report your findings, but not on a live site!
• 6.x-2.x is stable. The major change from the 1.x branch is the ability to use any Views arguments for the Distribution view, and subsequently the removal of the dependency on Nodequeue. The latest best release is running on live sites, though you are urged to try it on test setups first.

Requirements for the 6.x-2.x branch:

• Services 6.x-2.0-beta1
• Date
• Views

This module requires quite a lot of configuration and admin settings to get it up and running which is documented in the readme.txt bundled with the module.

Roadmap

• #1083038: migrate to content push?
• #671876: Compare to Deploy and Clients modules
• #711754: conversion to a Clients plugin
