In Drupal 7, i need to Programmatically
create the Nodes. As usual, there are Different Fields
set for Different Content Types
.
For very simple example:
Content Type: "car"
Fields: "Model", "Engine", "GearType"
Content Type: "article"
Fields: "Title", "Author", "Media"
What i want to be confirmed here is, while
i am creating a new node, for e.g by using:
$node = new stdClass();
$node->type = "car";
Then..
$node
has been initiated/loaded with its related/corresponded fields, already before get saved?node_save($node)
(without filling any other related fields) will that node
be still having (following) its proper Content Type structure?I think this is what your looking for:
$node = new stdClass();
$node->type = 'article';
node_object_prepare($node);
There is a nice blog post about this here: http://www.group42.ca/creating_and_updating_nodes_programmatically_in_drupal_7
