import#

xml/backup#

Name of the backup for sucessfully imported files

controller/jobs/customer/group/import/xml/backup = 
  • Type: integer - Name of the backup file, optionally with date/time placeholders
  • Since: 2019.04

After a XML file was imported successfully, you can move it to another location, so it won't be imported again and isn't overwritten by the next file that is stored at the same location in the file system.

You should use an absolute path to be sure but can be relative path if you absolutely know from where the job will be executed from. The name of the new backup location can contain placeholders understood by the PHP DateTime::format() method (with percent signs prefix) to create dynamic paths, e.g. "backup/%Y-%m-%d" which would create "backup/2000-01-01". For more information about the date() placeholders, please have a look into the PHP documentation of the format() method.

Note: If no backup name is configured, the file will be removed!

xml/decorators/excludes#

Excludes decorators added by the "common" option from the customer import CSV job controller

controller/jobs/customer/group/import/xml/decorators/excludes = Array
(
)
  • Default: Array ( )

  • Type: array - List of decorator names

  • Since: 2019.04

Decorators extend the functionality of a class by adding new aspects (e.g. log what is currently done), executing the methods of the underlying class only in certain conditions (e.g. only for logged in users) or modify what is returned to the caller.

This option allows you to remove a decorator added via "controller/jobs/common/decorators/default" before they are wrapped around the job controller.

 controller/jobs/customer/import/xml/decorators/excludes = array( 'decorator1' )

This would remove the decorator named "decorator1" from the list of common decorators ("\Aimeos\Controller\Jobs\Common\Decorator*") added via "controller/jobs/common/decorators/default" to the job controller.

xml/decorators/global#

Adds a list of globally available decorators only to the customer import CSV job controller

controller/jobs/customer/group/import/xml/decorators/global = Array
(
)
  • Default: Array ( )

  • Type: array - List of decorator names

  • Since: 2019.04

Decorators extend the functionality of a class by adding new aspects (e.g. log what is currently done), executing the methods of the underlying class only in certain conditions (e.g. only for logged in users) or modify what is returned to the caller.

This option allows you to wrap global decorators ("\Aimeos\Controller\Jobs\Common\Decorator*") around the job controller.

 controller/jobs/customer/import/xml/decorators/global = array( 'decorator1' )

This would add the decorator named "decorator1" defined by "\Aimeos\Controller\Jobs\Common\Decorator\Decorator1" only to the job controller.

xml/decorators/local#

Adds a list of local decorators only to the customer import CSV job controller

controller/jobs/customer/group/import/xml/decorators/local = Array
(
)
  • Default: Array ( )

  • Type: array - List of decorator names

  • Since: 2019.04

This option allows you to wrap local decorators ("\Aimeos\Controller\Jobs\Customer\Group\Import\Xml\Decorator*") around the job controller.

 controller/jobs/customer/import/xml/decorators/local = array( 'decorator2' )

This would add the decorator named "decorator2" defined by "\Aimeos\Controller\Jobs\Customer\Group\Import\Xml\Decorator\Decorator2" only to the job controller.

xml/location#

Directory where the CSV files are stored which should be imported

controller/jobs/customer/group/import/xml/location = /var/www/aimeos/ext/ai-controller-jobs/tests/Controller/Jobs/Xml/Import/_testfiles
  • Default: customergroup
  • Type: string - Relative path to the XML files
  • Since: 2019.04

It's the relative path inside the "fs-import" virtual file system configuration. The default location of the "fs-import" file system is:

  • Laravel: ./storage/import/
  • TYPO3: /uploads/tx_aimeos/.secure/import/

xml/max-query#

Maximum number of XML nodes processed at once

controller/jobs/customer/group/import/xml/max-query = 100
  • Default: 100
  • Type: integer - Number of XML nodes
  • Since: 2019.04

Processing and fetching several attribute items at once speeds up importing the XML files. The more items can be processed at once, the faster the import. More items also increases the memory usage of the importer and thus, this parameter should be low enough to avoid reaching the memory limit of the PHP process.

xml/name#

Class name of the used customer suggestions scheduler controller implementation

controller/jobs/customer/group/import/xml/name = Standard
  • Default: Standard
  • Type: string - Last part of the class name
  • Since: 2019.04

Each default job controller can be replace by an alternative imlementation. To use this implementation, you have to set the last part of the class name as configuration value so the controller factory knows which class it has to instantiate.

For example, if the name of the default class is

 \Aimeos\Controller\Jobs\Customer\Group\Import\Xml\Standard

and you want to replace it with your own version named

 \Aimeos\Controller\Jobs\Customer\Group\Import\Xml\Myxml

then you have to set the this configuration option:

 controller/jobs/customer/import/xml/name = Myxml

The value is the last part of your own class name and it's case sensitive, so take care that the configuration value is exactly named like the last part of the class name.

The allowed characters of the class name are A-Z, a-z and 0-9. No other characters are possible! You should always start the last part of the class name with an upper case character and continue only with lower case characters or numbers. Avoid chamel case names like "MyXml"!
