Two very promising modules: Messaging and Notifications

  1. Home

By Khalid on 2008/01/22 - 00:44, last updated 2008/01/22 - 00:44

Two recent modules by Jose Reyero seem to be a very promising development for Drupal.

They are Messaging and Notifications. 

For example, the new hook_watchdog() can definitely benefit from these modules, using them as a mechanism for delivering critical alerts for example.

Another example, is using this as a message queing facility a la IBM MQS.

disappointing commits

I was actually disappointed to see these.

Why? Well, we have modules that do each of these things (or should) but, like most modules, they need improvement and integration. Here we get "yet another module" which is "a developer's preview for Drupal 5. The module is under active development yet."

So, more pollution in the namespace, more code that tries to do the same thing as other modules, and yet no single module-to-rule-them-all "this is the way to do subscriptions and mail in Drupal".

I love the messaging concept, especially. Certainly projects to watch.

Hey Khalid,
Glad you are excited about these. The two modules have been a big help on two recent projects. Jose just posted on our blog, where he lists out the key features and shows a screen shot in action. http://www.developmentseed.org/blog/2008/jan/23/keeping-people-posted-notifications-and-messaging

We are going to be using these a lot in the coming moths so post your feedback on Drupal and know that we will be working to keep improving them :).

See you in Boston!
