INTRODUCTION

The Points module defines a Point entity type. Site builders can add fields to reference this type of entity in order to implement financial or transnational type of applications.

This module tries to be the successor of Userpoints Module for Drupal 7. Contrary to the D7 version, in D8, Points can be attached to any entity type.

REQUIREMENTS

This module requires no modules outside of Drupal core.

CONFIGURATION

1. Navigate to Administration > Extend and enable the module.
2. Navigate to Administration > Structure > Content Type > [content type to
   edit] Manage fields.
3. Add a new field of Reference type "Other", give it a label, save and
   continue.
4. In the Reference Type dropdown select Point, set allowed values, and save
   field settings.
5. In the Reference Type field select the Reference method, sort by
   value, and sort direction. Save settings.

Update Points via Web Services or API: Points Module implements a state tracking mechanism to prevent a same Point Entity being updated by multiple threads/clients who are not aware of other potential updates. To use API or web services to update Point, you will need to set the state of the Point Entity instance to the exact number of Point at the time retrieved.
