New pages and fields from a module

[paulg]

Good morning

I'm sure this is already here somewhere but I can't find it.

I'm keen to start to have a go creating modules with process wire so I can make things reusable and share back with the community. I ve read the basics of how to create a module, hello world etc.... So I'm ok with that bit but as a starting point I d like to try and create something like an image gallery from scratch.

Is there a tutorial I just haven't seen or something to tell me how from a module I can create the pages, fields etc via a module please with some custom js and css possibly.

I don't want this to be a profile as I want to create a load of reusable plug and play type functionality commonly asked for by clients which is why I'm keen to do this as a module.

I will of course share when I manage to build this and future modules as I get my head around pw

Apologies again if this has been asked before, I could just be having a moment but appreciate the assistance.

Have to say pw is amazing, till now I ve always used Drupal but I think pw will now be my tool of choice for most things, so incredibly easy to use from what I've seen so far. Might even re do some of my existing sites into processwire

Thanks again

I think you are looking for: how to create pages, fields and templates using the api. See this topic and this topic with great examples.

Many thanks

I guessed it would have been asked before and I just couldn't find it

You're welcome. I always use Google to search the forum, i.e. 

site:processwire.com adding fields through api

Yes, works many times better and faster than forum search.
