decorators#

excludes#

Excludes decorators added by the "common" option from the product export job controller

controller/jobs/product/export/decorators/excludes = 
  • Type: array - List of decorator names
  • Since: 2015.01

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/product/export/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.

global#

Adds a list of globally available decorators only to the product export job controller

controller/jobs/product/export/decorators/global = 
  • Type: array - List of decorator names
  • Since: 2015.01

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/product/export/decorators/global = array( 'decorator1' )

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

controller/jobs/product/export/decorators/local = 
  • Type: array - List of decorator names
  • Since: 2015.01

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 local decorators ("\Aimeos\Controller\Jobs\Product\Export\Decorator*") around the job controller.

 controller/jobs/product/export/decorators/local = array( 'decorator2' )

This would add the decorator named "decorator2" defined by "\Aimeos\Controller\Jobs\Product\Export\Decorator\Decorator2" only to the job controller.

domains#

List of associated items from other domains that should be exported too

controller/jobs/product/export/domains = 
  • Type: array - List of domain names
  • Since: 2015.01

Products consist not only of the base data but also of texts, media files, prices, attrbutes and other details. Those information is associated to the products via their lists. Using the "domains" option you can make more or less associated items available in the template.

  • Default: aimeos-products-%1$d_%2$s.xml
  • Type: string - File name template
  • Since: 2018.04

controller/jobs/product/export/location = /var/www/aimeos/ext/ai-controller-jobs/tests/tmp
  • Type: string - Absolute directory to store the exported files into
  • Since: 2015.01

You have to configure a directory for the generated files on your server that is writeable by the process generating the files, e.g.

  • controller/jobs/product/export/max-query

max-items#

Maximum number of exported products per file

controller/jobs/product/export/max-items = 15
  • Default: 10000
  • Type: integer - Number of products entries per file
  • Since: 2015.01

Limits the number of exported products per file as the memory consumption of processing big files is rather high. Splitting the data into several files that can also be processed in parallel is able to speed up importing the files again.

max-query#

Maximum number of products per query

controller/jobs/product/export/max-query = 5
  • Default: 1000
  • Type: integer - Number of products per query
  • Since: 2015.01

The products are fetched from the database in bunches for efficient retrieval. The higher the value, the lower the total time the database is busy finding the records. Higher values also means that record updates in the tables need to wait longer and the memory consumption of the PHP process is higher.

name#

Class name of the used product suggestions scheduler controller implementation

controller/jobs/product/export/name = 
  • Type: string - Last part of the class name
  • Since: 2015.01

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\Product\Export\Standard

and you want to replace it with your own version named

 \Aimeos\Controller\Jobs\Product\Export\Myalgorithm

then you have to set the this configuration option:

 controller/jobs/product/export/name = Myalgorithm

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 "MyOptimizer"!
