NAME

CMS::Drupal::Admin::MaintenanceMode - Put your Drupal site into Maintenance Mode, or take it out

VERSION

version 0.94

SYNOPSIS

  use CMS::Drupal::Admin::MaintenanceMode qw/ -all /;

  my $on = 'yes' if maintenance_mode_check($dbh);
 
  maintenance_mode_on($dbh);

  maintenance_mode_off($dbh);

DESCRIPTION

This module provides methods to check whether your Drupal site is currently in maintenance mode, and to put it into and take it out of maintenance mode.

You might like to put the site into maintenance mode before running a script that reads from the DB, or perhaps you would like to have a monitoring tool able to shut off public access to the site if something bad happens.

Note that this and all CMS::Drupal::* Perl packages interact with the database directly, not with the website. You must have the user credentials for your database in order to use these tools.

METHODS

maintenance_mode_check

Returns 1 if the site is currently in maintenance mode, otherwise returns 0. Takes one argument; your active $dbh.

maintenance_mode_on

Puts the site into maintenance mode. Returns 1 if there was no failure; i.e. the site was successfully put into, or already was in, maintenance mode. Returns 0 on DB error. Takes one argument; your active $dbh.

maintenance_mode_off

Takes the site out of maintenance mode. Returns 1 if there was no failure; i.e. the site was successfully taken out of, or was already not in, maintenance mode. Returns 0 on DB error. Takes one argument; your active $dbh.

USAGE

Use the module as shown in the SYNOPSIS.
