  • Brief description:
    • Have you ever needed to maintain a site where a site owner had access to update site configuration, and wanted to be notified whenever they did so? There’s a module for that
  • Module name/project name:
    • Config Notify
  • Brief history
    • How old: created in Feb 2020 by Fran Garcia-Linares (fjgarlin), one of today’s guests
    • Versions available: 8.x-1.11, which supports Drupal 8.8 and newer
  • Maintainership
    • Actively maintained
    • Security coverage
  • Number of open issues: 2 open issues, neither of which are bugs
  • Usage stats:
    • 194 sites
  • Module features and usage

    • You can choose for the notifications to be sent immediately, or via cron, with an option for a daily digest. The notifications can be sent by email, or via Slack, using the slack module (if enabled).
