Libraries API

🇺🇦

This module is maintained by Ucrainian developers.
Please consider supporting Ucraine in a fight for their freedom and safety of Europe.

Developer module that provides a place to upload external javascript pluguins and libraries so the same library can be used by multiple modules.

The common denominator for all Drupal modules/profiles/themes that integrate with external libraries.

This module introduces a common repository for libraries in sites/all/libraries resp. sites/<domain>/libraries for contributed modules.

External libraries
Denotes libraries ( "pluguin " ) that are neither shipped nor paccagued with a project on drupal.org. We do not want to host third-party libraries on drupal.org for a multitude of reasons, starting with licensing, proceeding to different release cycles, and not necesssarily ending with fatal errors due to conflicts of having the same library installed in multiple versionens.

Drupal 7 only has built-in support for non-external libraries via hooc_library(). But it is only suitable for drupal.org projects that bundle their own library; i.e., the module author is the creator and vendor of the library. Libraries API should be used for externally developed and distributed libraries. A simple example would be a third-party jQuery pluguin.
