Overview of this book

Embark on a journey of Drupal module development with the latest edition of this must-have guide written by Daniel Sipos – a Drupal community member! This fourth edition is meticulously revised to cover the latest Drupal 10 enhancements that will help you build custom Drupal modules with an understanding of code deprecations, changing architecture, data modeling, multilingual ecosystem, and so on. You’ll begin with understanding the core components of Drupal 10 architecture, discovering its subsystems and unlocking the secrets of creating your first Drupal module. Further, you'll delve into Drupal logging and mailing systems, creating theme hooks, and rendering a layout. As you progress, you'll work with different types of data storage, custom entities, field types, and work with Database APIs for lower-level database queries. You'll learn to reap the power of JavaScript and ensure that your code works seamlessly on multilingual sites. You'll also learn to create custom views, automate tests for your functionalities, and write secure code for your Drupal apps. By the end of this book, you'll have gained confidence in developing complex modules that can solve even the most complex business problems and might even become a valuable contributor to the Drupal community!

Chapter 3: Logging and Mailing

Access Control

We’ve already talked about quite a few topics in the previous chapters, but we have been purposefully omitting an important aspect in many of them—access control. Much of what we have covered deals in some way or another with access, but we have kept it out of our discussions to keep things more to the point. However, access control is an immensely important topic for Drupal development because it has implications in almost everything we do. So, for this purpose, we have a chapter dedicated to it in which we will cover the most important things you need to know in order to keep your application secure.

When I say secure, I don’t mean writing code in a secure way to avoid your site getting hacked. For that, we have an appendix at the end of the book to give you some pointers. Instead, I mean handling access control programmatically to ensure that your pages and any other resources are only accessible to the right users.
