Description

Field inspector provides an administrative user interface for the Field Info API. This allows users to select what information, formatting, and fields they would like to see, and provides output in a manner that can be copied into a module, or install profile into a hook_install, or hook_update_N function. This functionality is similar to the Content Copy module provided in 6.x and earlier versions of the CCK package.

Since the Field API in Drupal 7 uses sane CRUD functions for creating and updating fields, no import functionality is provided. Instead use the Devel module's Execute PHP feature for importing fields.

Dependencies

This module depends on the Chaos tool suite (ctools).

Drupal 8

There won't be a Drupal 8 version of this module since the built in config import/export for single items (found at admin/config/development/configuration/single/export) effectively does the exact same thing that this module does.
