Brief description:

Have you ever wanted a simple way to view and store
information about the overall health of your Drupal website?
There’s a module for that!



Module name/project name:

Site



How old:

Project originally created in Sep 2007, current project
looking like it took over the namespacex in June 2023



Versions available:

1.10.0-alpha11 works with D8 and above



Maintainership

Currently very actively maintained, last release was in
the past couple of weeks



Does not have issue enabled, project page says to open issues
against ox project, which currently has no open issues

Usage stats:

3 sites



Maintainer(s):

Jon Pugh, a founding member of the Aegir project, among
many others



Module features and usage

The Site module stores information about the health of
your site in a fieldable, revisionable entity

Provides a detailed history of the state of your site,
including changes to configuration with a log of who changed
what, where

Will include data on Drupal and PHP version, Git
information, and more

Health can be based on the core Status report, the Site
Audit module report, or a custom SiteState plugin

Can display an overall status indicator in the toolbar,
so as a site owner or maintainer you don’t have to go to the
Site Status page to see it

That page will display more detailed information,
including the “reason” for the current status, the site’s
history, and more

Integrates with the Site Manager module (also by Jon
Pugh) which provides a UI for monitoring and managing a
portfolio of Drupal sites

You can try out Site and Site Manager as part of the
Operations project (machine name ox) as a Lando-based local
setup of four sites, of which one provides a dashboard for
the other three
