In this presentation, Neera Prajapati of Valuebound has discussed on performance optimization in Drupal 8. She has also talked about a range of topics like why website loading time matters? Importance of web performance and how to boost it? and others.
A RestFul web service allows exposing existing code functionality over a network and makes applications independent of platform and technology. RESTful services use HTTP requests and are lightweight, scalable and maintainable. In Drupal 8, web services are built into the core and include modules to export data via REST API and create custom REST methods. API keys can be generated and set through an admin form to access nodes, with routing and permissions configured for the API form.

The ActiveScaffold Plugin helpers Ruby on Rails developers quickly and easily create data maintenance web pages with advanced features like column sorting, pagination and searching. This presentation provides a brief overview of the ActiveScaffold plugin. Suitable for a Lightning Talk.
Master pages in ASP.NET allow you to create a consistent layout for all pages in an application. A master page defines the common elements like navigation, headers and footers. It contains content placeholders that content pages can fill. When a content page is requested, it merges with the associated master page to produce the output. This allows separation of design and content while ensuring a uniform appearance.
Odoo - Open Source CMS: A performance comparisionOdoo
The document compares the performance of four open source content management systems (CMS): Odoo, Drupal, Magento, and Prestashop. It finds that Odoo consistently outperforms the other CMS across a number of metrics: it is 3 times faster than Drupal and 6 times faster than Magento based on load testing; it can handle more users before timing out; and its codebase is smaller. While the other CMS have improvements to make in terms of HTML validation, Odoo represents the best balance of speed, scalability, and maintainability according to the analysis in the document.
[Srijan Wednesday Webinars] New Recipe of Decoupling: Drupal 8, Symfony and S...Srijan Technologies
This document discusses decoupled or headless architecture for a Drupal site. It introduces the traditional CMS approach versus a headless one, then covers why one may want to go headless including building interactive experiences and speeding up sites. Potential issues with a headless Drupal approach are outlined as well as a proposed solution involving separating Drupal, logic, and front-end layers with caching and APIs. Key aspects of each layer are defined and a demo is referenced.
This document discusses how to create a master page in ASP.NET. A master page stores global page elements that appear on every content page, has a .master extension, and allows for consistent styling across a web application. It provides a template that defines placeholders for content pages to fill. The content and master pages are combined to output the final page. The document demonstrates how to create a master page file, add elements to its design and source views, and replace placeholders with content from a content page file.
The document discusses master pages in ASP.NET. Master pages allow you to create a consistent layout for pages in an application. A single master page defines look, feel and standard behavior for all or groups of pages. The master page uses the @Master directive instead of the @Page directive. ContentPlaceHolder controls are included to define areas for content on individual pages. Master pages provide advantages like centralized common functionality, easy creation of reusable controls across pages, and fine-grained control over page layout.
Drupal websites can be structured for SEO in flexible ways. Enabling clean URLs, managing URL aliases with Pathauto, and controlling HTML output with modules like Clean Markup are important. Configuring metatags with the Metatag module and adding breadcrumbs and alternative feeds helps search engines index content. Views also need configuration to optimize pagination and metadata. With strategic configuration, Drupal can be optimized for search engines.

Becoming a drupal master builder - Given at Drupal Camp London 2016
I've been building Drupal sites for a number of years and have a broad experience building Drupal sites with various levels of complexity. I often work with other agencies to build Drupal sites or to migrate existing sites and as a result I will often see some very common mistakes and errors that shouldn't be happening. Due to Drupal's popularity I also see Drupal sites in the wild and can clearly see the same mistakes going on there as well.
During this talk I'll show some basic site building tips as well as some more complex and technical strategies that will make your Drupal sites better and more maintainable. Rather than just show you what to do, I'll also be explaining why doing those things are important and how developers and their websites will benefit from them. Although I'll be mainly concentrating on Drupal 7, some of these techniques are also applicable to Drupal 8.
Help! I inherited a Drupal Site! - DrupalCamp Atlanta 2016Paul McKibben
You have found yourself newly-responsible for administering and updating a Drupal site created by somebody else, and you’re struggling. Maybe you’re new to Drupal and you’ve been thrown into the fire. Or maybe you’re experienced with Drupal but the site creator used an unfamiliar approach. Or even worse, perhaps the site was not built according to best practices, and you need to dig deep to figure out how it works and keep it updated. Whatever your situation, this presentation has something for you.
Migrating a Drupal site from versions 6/7 to 8 requires analysis of the existing site, documentation of the process, and testing a virtual preview before migration. The migration is executed using Drush commands or the Migrate Upgrade module UI, and involves configuring and running individual migrations in dependency order. Potential issues include unsupported modules and field mappings that require changes post-migration. Collaboration with support is recommended for complex sites.

[Srijan Wednesday Webinars] Breaking Limitations using Drupal 8Srijan Technologies
Drupal 7 is a brilliant content management platform, but not without limitations. You'd often find site builders, developers and project managers struggling with its pain points like deployment--which can be a real nightmare if not performed correctly and not being able to use the same block in two regions.
In this webinar, we have touch based with various pain points that hit us on a day-to-day basis while working with Drupal 7 and introduced the features and improvements of Drupal 8 that will help you overcome these pain points and make your life easier.
Drupal 8 sets a new standard for ease of use, and allows users to create and deploy content in a whole new way. You’ve seen the platform designed for Drupal, now see Drupal designed for the platform.
This document discusses decoupled or headless Drupal architectures. It explains that in a decoupled Drupal, the CMS serves as a content provider for other frontend systems through APIs rather than rendering the frontend itself. It compares this to a traditional Drupal architecture where the CMS generates both content and HTML. It outlines some advantages of decoupling like creating reusable content across platforms and separating frontend and backend development. It also notes some disadvantages like losing context features and management capabilities available in the CMS. It provides examples of connecting decoupled Drupal to frontend frameworks using REST APIs or GraphQL.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
- These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.
3. What is Profiling Drupal
● In the beginning of any Drupal project the site loads very quickly because there aren’t
many modules installed. But as you keep adding modules, the performance of the site
degrades.
● Profiling your site is extremely useful not only for debugging and performance testing
but also for learning about how your site handles requests.
● If you’re on Drupal 7, just enable query logging using the Devel module. This will show
all the queries generated at the bottom of the page.
● But for Drupal 8 we have something better: Web Profiler.
4. What is Web Profiler
● Web profiler is a bundle of symfony and in drupal 8 we are using symfony
component.
● Web profiler is a module in Drupal 8.
● Using the Web Profiler, you can profile any Drupal 8 page, which will analyze the
performance and the internal structure of a website/page.
5. Web Profiler with Drupal 8
● Web profiler is a sub module of Devel module.
● The module will render a fixed bar at the bottom of each page for users.
● This module also provide permission for each role - The View webprofiler toolbar
permission.
6. ● This module provides the configuration page (Go to Configuration ->
development -> Devel settings -> Web profiler) where you can do
configuration related to toolbar items, IDE settings.
● By clicking on any of the items from toolbar, you will be taken to the full
profiler output.
7. Installing Libraries
● Web profiler needs two javascript libraries:
○ Highlight.js
○ D3.js
● This libraries are optional, without installing libraries web profiler will
work in drupal 8.
8. Highlight.js
● Highlight.js is used to highlight the syntax of queries.
● Create /libraries/highlightjs/ directory inside your Drupal root
directory
● You can download the library from http://highlightjs.org and copy js
and styles folder from downloaded folder and place in
/libraries/highlightjs.
9. D3.js
● D3.js is used when viewing the timeline page.
● You can download the library from
https://github.com/d3/d3/archive/v3.5.17.zip and place in
/libraries/d3.
● Webprofiler module requires D3 library 3.x (not 4.x) to render data.
10. Displaying Timeline
● For Web Profiler to display the details on the timeline page you must add the
following two lines to your settings.php or settings.local.php.
● This two lines will be also available in /devel/webprofiler/README.md.
$class_loader->addPsr4('Drupalwebprofiler', [ __DIR__ .
'/../../modules/contrib/devel/webprofiler/src']);
$settings['container_base_class'] =
'DrupalwebprofilerDependencyInjectionTraceableContainer';
● Be aware that the code above assumes you’ll add the devel module at
/modules/contrib/devel.
12. IDE Integration
Each class name discovered while profiling (controller class, event class) is
specially linked to open the class in an IDE. You can configure the URLs for
these links to work for your IDE.
● Textmate
Use txmt://open?url=file://@fileline=@line
● PhpStorm 8+
Use phpstorm://open?file=@fileline=@line
