UI Based Migration
Simple, but will write this up later.
Migrating with Drush
You will need a few extra modules to get started with this route: Migrate Tools, Migrate Upgrade & Migrate Plus
...
- Download & setup both the D7 and the D8 sites
- Enable the migrate, migrate tools, migrate upgrade & migrate plus modules in the D8 site
In the D8 site run this
Code Block drush migrate-upgrade --legacy-db-url=mysql://drupal:drupal@localhost/D7SITE_drupalvm --legacy-root=http://D7SITE.dvm --configure-only drush migrate-status
- You will see a list of all the items queued for migration. You can either migrate them all or pick and chose.
You can migrate all of the items with:
Code Block drush migrate-import --all
OR you can be more granular and migrate only certain items:
Code Block drush migrate-import {migration name} i.e. drush migrate-import upgrade_d7_menu drush migrate-import upgrade_d7_node_news
- NOTE: it will tell you what other items you need to migrate with that singular migration peice when you try to import it.
