There's a module for that Module name/project name: ECA Tamper Brief history How old: created in Apr 2022 by Jürgen Haas of Lake Drops Versions available: 1.0.6 and 2.0.4, the latter of which supports Drupal 10.4 and 11 Maintainership Actively maintained Security coverage Number of open issues: 6 open issues, none of which are bugs Usage stats: 1,087 sites Module features and usage For anyone who hasn't used it before, Tamper is a generic plugin system for transforming data.
