| Aug 10, 2017 at 19:12 | comment | added | nilsun | thanks @NoSssweat, I did. Thanks for taking the time to point me to the right part and Well, fair enough, it should be mentioned that he really tries to explain the config files but I have to admit, that I more and more think that I don't like YAML. Especially if it has no comments. I am not a deadhead, but uncommetned parts of a software which you didn't wrote by yourself is a nightmare. | |

It would be a starting point if someone would answer my partial question: what is thismigration_groups: - ACME import about?

| Aug 10, 2017 at 16:31 | comment | added | nilsun | @NoSssweat thx for chiming in, but a one hour youtube session with lots of fills and errms whooping over the basic howto is not very helpful. It is a waste of time because it only tries to paint the picture. But this is not my problem. I see the picture. It seems that no one is able to really explain the definitions of each step in detail behind to understand and to alternate it. Its all about that everybody wants to say something about it but nothing gets to the real points. It is always hard to explain and document community code. | |
| Aug 10, 2017 at 15:05 | comment | added | tenken | @NoSssweat This is a good recommendation. Be aware that video is from 2016 and the D8 Migrate set of modules may have been tweaked to use slightly different YAML conventions than what appears in that video. I also think that while he moves content from D6 to D8 with alot of code -- now there exist alot of built-in D6 Source and Destination migration classes that would remove alot of his boilerplate code. | |

but it uses different solutions for relationchips than its D7 predecessor If everything is not identical, then you will need a custom importer. In addition, the default importer is Core to Core. So if you are using Contrib fields or entities that is added via a Contrib module, you will also need to use a custom importer.
