Usage

  2. Run drush mi --group=[GROUP] to import content from specific example group.

Special usage of JSON migration example

JSON migration source plugin requires an absolute URL of a JSON resource to be set in migration .yml file due to an assumption that JSON resources are remote. It means that for JSON migration to work, a base url of the site needs to be provided to migration system.

Run drush mi --group=migrate_source_example_json --uri=[BASE_URL], where [BASE_URL] is an absolute path to your site.

Data source

Example content is synced with a Google Spreadsheet.
