Pre-process and store namespaces
>>> [!note] Migrated issue <!-- Drupal.org comment --> <!-- Migrated from issue #2725437. --> Reported by: [Mixologic](https://www.drupal.org/user/391689) >>> <p>In order to keep a good developer experience, we want to keep the package namespace simple, yet be able to handle the module namespace collisions. For example, we want drupal/entity to represent the entity module in the entity project, and not the short lived entity module from drupal core. </p> <p>Right now we have seeded the projects by running the core project first, then all modules and themes in descending order according to update stats.<br> When there is a conflict between module namespaces, the less used project gets the package namespace of <code>drupal/&lt;project&gt;_&lt;modulename&gt;</code>, and the most used project gets to keep the <code>drupal/&lt;modulename&gt;</code> namespace.</p> <p>Additionally, we should namespace core modules since they will always end up being metapackages. Core modules should get the namespace of <code>drupal/core_&lt;modulename&gt;</code></p> <p>So, we need to :</p> <ol> <li>Add a drush command to process all of the projects and themes, and add an additional database table that keeps a mapping of projectname, modulename, and packagename. Add the core module detection to this db table.</li> <li>Update the versioncontrol hooks to look for new projects/modules to add to the namespace mapping table</li> <li>Update the package json data to get the package namespace.</li> <li>Update the package json data to reflect core_module dependencies</li> </ol>
