Entity Metadata Wrappers and Entity API

Nov 30, 2012 Brandon 1 Comment
A common mistake when getting or setting values within Drupal is when the developer will use LANGUAGE_NONE as the array key for the language. This works “fine” on a single site but, if the site ever becomes multi language you’ve got a problem. The proper way of doing this is to use the Entity API module and the entity_metadata_wrapper function within it. Wrong Way: 
$value = $node->field_first_name[LANGUAGE_NONE][0][‘value’];
Right Way: 
// Create wrapper around the node.

It offers offline storage which opens the door for various possibilities depending on your use-case. One example could be storing user preferences.
