Custom SQL Migrate Source Plugin

Prerequisites:
Existing database entered in the settings.php file.
In this example:

$databases['mg_legacy']['default'] = array (
 'database' => 'mg_legacy',
 'username' => 'xxx',
 'password' => 'xxx',
 'host' => 'localhost',
 'port' => '3306',
 'driver' => 'mysql',
 'prefix' => '',
 'collation' => 'utf8mb4_general_ci',
);

Installation:
Enable module

Description:
With this CustomSQLQuery plugin you can enter a custom SQL string in your migration config file and it will pull the data directly from any database.

It returns all the fields queried in the SQL string in the row object. So any field you select in the SQL query can be accessed by any process plugin or as a source for any field.

IMPORTANT: Any changes to the sql requires you to re-install your custom migration module for the settings to take affect. You can do so with

drush pmu [module_name] -y && drush en [module_name] -y
