White label entity type

The white label entity type (short: while) is a simple node-like entity type without any special functionality. The labels and paths used for the entity type can be configured using variables, enabling easy re-use of the entity type in situations where a custom entity type is needed.

Features

• Supports revisions
• Admin UI for managing multiple (exportable) bundles
• Views, Features, Token integration etc, as provided via the entity module
• Supports panelizer and page manager overrides for while_view

Dependencies

Requires a recent Entity API 7.x-1.2+ or manually patched with:

• #1105618-18: UI controller for content-entities
• #1619628-14: Entity UI '/add' page doesn't provide for an entity with bundles
