D6 to D7: How can I get all the migrated content to have the “Text format” of “Full HTML” for the body

Question

I am migrating content using both the migrate, migrate_d2d and my own custom module which references the 2 migrate modules. The below code successfully migrates content from Drupal 6 to Drupal 7 when registering and running the migration of "PressMigration" within the .module file but I always want the Drupal 7 migrated content body area to have the "Text format" of "Full HTML". How can I get all the migrated content to have the "Text format" of "Full HTML" for the body.

Thanks,

John

class PressMigration extends DrupalNode6Migration {

  protected function query() {
    $query = parent::query();
    //Only include specific nodes in migrationj
    $query->addJoin('LEFT OUTER', 'term_node', 'tn', 'n.vid=tn.vid');
    $query->addField('tn', 'tid', 'tn.tid');
    $query->addField('tn', 'vid', 'tn.vid');
    $query->condition('tn.tid', '115', '=');
    return $query;
  }

  public function __construct(array $arguments) {
    parent::__construct($arguments);

    $this->addFieldMapping('field_release_date', 'field_release_date');
    $this->addFieldMapping('field_contact', 'field_contact_information');

    $this->addFieldMapping('field_subtitle', 'field_sub_title');
    $this->addFieldMapping('field_teaser', 'field_media_excerpt');
    $this->addFieldMapping('field_custom_title', 'field_custom_title');

    $this->addFieldMapping('field_alt_lang', 'field_alternate_lang');
    $this->addFieldMapping('field_related_item', 'field_media_related');
    $this->addFieldMapping('field_archiving_date', 'field_archive_date');
  }

}

Answer 1

When we migrated from Drupal 6 to Drupal 7 we used a format_mapping like this so that everything became filtered_html:

'format_mappings' => array(
               '1' => 'filtered_html', // Filtered HTML
               '2' => 'filtered_html', // PHP code
               '3' => 'filtered_html', // Full HTML
               ),

The comments above show the Drupal 6 names we had for the numeric format codes. format_mappings is an element of the arguments passed to the registerMigration() method, such as:

Migration::registerMigration('FooMigration', $arguments['machine_name'], $arguments);

Answer 2

You should try to set the input format on the body field in this way:

$this->addFieldMapping('body', 'body')
 ->arguments(array('format' => 'full_html'));

Answer 3

It is recommended to use the module Drupal-to-Drupal data migration: migrate_d2d.

There you can map your legacy filters to the destination filters, by passing a format_mappings argument when registering the node migration, as described in the issue Set text filter for migrations. Note that before Drupal 7 an integer value was used instead of machine names.

$arguments = array(
  'source_connection' => 'legacy',
  'source_version' => 6,
  'description' => t('Migration of core blog nodes from Drupal 6 to custom blog nodes'),
  'machine_name' => 'ExBlog',
  'source_type' => 'blog',
  'destination_type' => 'custom_blog_type',
  'user_migration' => 'ExUser',  // Machine name of our user migration above
  'format_mappings' => array(
    '1' => 'filtered_html',
    '2' => 'full_html',
    '3' => 'plain_text',
  ),
);
Migration::registerMigration('DrupalNode6Migration', $arguments['machine_name'], $arguments);

Answer 4

In the past I've succesfully used the abstract Node migration class (the first code block) here: https://drupal.org/node/1513766.

It assumes the default migration module (I didn't use migrate_d2d so I don't know about compatibility).

This part that matches the D6 numeric notation to the D7 string notation worked for me.

public function prepareRow($current_row) {
  $formats = array(
    '1' => 'filtered_html',
    '2' => 'full_html',
    '3' => 'plain_text',
    '4' => 'markdown',
  );
  $current_row->format = isset($formats[$current_row->format]) ? $formats[$current_row->format] : 'plain_text';
}

Since you want all nodes to be Full HTML, I'd say adding the following should work.

public function prepareRow($current_row) {
  $current_row->format = 'full_html';
}

Answer 5

This one worked for me for every field:

$node_options = MigrateDestinationNode::options(LANGUAGE_NONE, 'filtered_html');
$this->destination = new MigrateDestinationNode('node', $node_options);

Answer 6

The field mapping arguments() method is now deprecated - please use subfield notation instead.

-> You can also set the textformat for the whole destination:

$this->destination = new MigrateDestinationNode('lexiconentry',array('text_format' => 'full_html'));
