#drupal api

API’s can be great when you want your website to communicate with other third-party sites/apps to give or request any kind of data. Learn how you can expose APIs in Drupal 10 in this brief tutorial.

Drupal allows pretty smooth file management API for developers.. Here is a small piece of code in which I tried to take CSVs as input, process them to get the data and insert the values into the database..

Create a menu item for your file upload form

Define the callback for the menu item and make sure to set the form encoding

Make sure that the file imported is of CSV type (check the mime type of the file uploaded)

And finally get data from the csv And TA-DA :-)

Drupal 6:

<?php

$block = module_invoke('MODULE_NAME', 'block', 'view', MODULE_DELTA);

print $block['content'];

?>

Drupal 7:

this will print with title

<?php

    $block = block_load('locale', 'language');

    $output = drupal_render(_block_get_renderable_array(_block_render_blocks(array($block))));

    print $output;

?>

this will print without title

<?php

    $block2 = module_invoke('locale', 'block_view', 'language');

    print render($block2['content']);

?>
