This extension replaces PR #40645. It will add missing packaging facilities to the guided tours.
Exporting tours is important for
- creators of tours who would like to export their work and import it into client's websites,
- third party extension developers who would like to create tours and make them available to their users,
- keep a directory of tours, available, downloadable and easily installable.
The tours toolkit will
- export tours in the json format,
- grab and store media,
- grab and create language files (when tours are multi-lingual),
- package all in an installable zip file. The package will contain an installer that will import tours, media and language files.
Once packaged, the idea is to have a specific JED directory where people will be able to find extended core tours, third-party tours and other miscellaneous tours.
As of now, the toolkit includes a plugin and a component that allow to:
- export a tour as json, SQL or SQL with language keys files to each tour view,
- import tours as json,
- import tour steps from a CSV file,
- go back and forth between the toolkit and the guided tours.
Check Releases for further information. pkg_guidedtourstoolkit.zip will install both extensions and enable the plugin.
