This is a fork from Tom Verhaeghe's Fixtures project at http://git.drupal.org/sandbox/heartdriven/1722102.git
Fixtures is an idea derived from other frameworks - in this case Symfony and Ruby on Rails. Fixtures are a YAML way of writing default content for your website. If you create your Drupal based website with Fixtures, you might need a set of default testing data to populate your site once you've installed it.
Features enables you to create your website from a "clean-build path", instead of the classic "upgrade path" approach. This way, continuous integration is possible. This creates a little problem: every time you do a clean install of your drupal website, you have to create content again and again. Fixtures is a way to permanently create content in a text file, and the user doesn't have to know a lot about drupal.
Imports users. The following file should be written in the sites/all/fixtures folder.
user.yaml
Define a menu tree in a file in the folder sites/all/fixtures and use the naming convention below:
menu--[machine-name].yaml menu--main-menu.yaml menu--other-menu.yaml
Important: note that if you specify menu items, you'll have to run them after nodes/taxonomies have been created. Menu items created with a path that doesn't exist yet are not saved.
Below is a description of the node fixtures.
node--article.yaml # Any articles node--article--batch1.yaml # "Batch" 1 of articles node--article--batch2.yaml # node--page.yaml # All pages, not part of any category node--page--about.yaml # For example all pages that are under the "About" menu item node--page--contact.yaml #
Use drush to run the fixtures. The command is 'drush fixtures-all' and it currently imports users, nodes and menus.
