Hook Rebuild

A Drupal 7 polyfill for the core hook_rebuild() added in Drupal 8

hook_rebuild() is called after a flush of all Drupal cache's allowing implementing modules to rebuild any required data structures using fresh data that is known to be pulled direct from it's data source.

The rebuild hook provided by this module is only invoked after the system has been completely cleared; i.e., all previously cached data is known to be gone and every API in the system is known to return current information, so your module can safely rely on all available data to rebuild its own.

Using this module

Simply leverage the rebuild hook.

<?php

/**
 * @see hook_rebuild()
 */
function my_module_rebuild(){
    //Rebuild my module data
}

Other contributed module developers

This module introduces a new Module type: Drupal 8 Polyfills
I would like to propose that any other Modules being developed to introduce functionality provided in Drupal 8 use this Module type also.
