Distributions and Recipes Targets Application Reliability and Safety
The Distributions and Recipes initiative within the Drupal project is intensifying efforts to boost the reliability and safety of recipe applications, tackling prevalent challenges that block real-world usability. A report by Adam G-H acknowledges the initiative's recognition of uncertainties and risks associated with applying recipes, particularly the potential for shipping invalid configurations or conflicting settings.
The initiative outlines a two-pronged approach prioritizing the validation of recipe-delivered configurations and preventing adverse impacts in case of application failure. Key tasks include validating imported and modified configurations, aligning configuration schema with required keys, configuring consistent event triggering, and implementing comprehensive validation and automatic rollback mechanisms.
These efforts are poised to mitigate the aftermath of failed recipe applications, providing administrators with a more structured approach to managing configurations. For more details, refer to the link.
