Drupal, as we all know, comes great out of the box in terms of search engine friendly urls and the like. However, the built-in path module doesn’t always handle urls as you’d like, especially on large sites. Pathauto is the module for choice for those of us that are fussy about how our urls are structured, however it does have some shortcomings. One of these is for owners of really, really large sites. If you have a site with tens (or hundreds) of thousands of nodes, updating the url aliases can be a tedius process, only achievable via the admin interface, and you can only create a few (500 or so) at a time. So, how does one automate this tedious process?
