Varbase Core is important number of managed configurations on install. It needed to update entity definitions after that.
Have a look at the
varbase_core_install
hook functionVarbase API in some point needed to update configurations in a hook update. It needed to update entity definitions after that. Which did not work without entity definition update.
Have a look at the
varbase_api_update_8702
hook function- Having custom and managed config templates. Which on import to the active config for selected entity types or fields.
- Entity definitions need to be auto updated
- Field definitions need to be auto updated.
Have a look at the following commit to use in Custom Config Import Classes
Do not use when the import/update of configs works in the normal way.
If all configs are in the
config/install
and no issues on install.Use when custom managed configs just have been imported or updated in a custom order, And custom actions or changes in between imports are being involved.
If the module or profile has number of optional or managed configs. Which located in
config/optional
or config/managed
or any other custom physical locations. When importing or updating with custom Drupal Config Factory or Drupal Install Factory.
Must run at least ones at the end of each installation steps for installation profiles like Varbase, Vardoc, Uber Publisher.
