Question about product import via csv

Post by Dochr » 25 Jan 2022, 20:12

Laravel version: 8.80
Aimeos version: 2021.10
PHP version: 8.0.8

I have a question about https://aimeos.org/docs/latest/cronjobs ... sv-import/.
  1. Is it possible to configure the import to be idempotent? In other words: if a user will import the same file twice, it’ll update database only once.
  2. Is the following behaviour achievable?:
    If from a file 99% is already imported and not modified, only remaining 1% will be added to database and nothing from 99% will be update.
  3. Changes from already imported rows are detected and in such case products are updated.

We already try to minimize database writes during import and store only changes if possible.
You should also configure a backup file pattern so files can be moved to another directory to avoid importing the same file multiple times:
https://aimeos.org/docs/2021.x/config/c ... rt/#backup
Professional support and custom implementation are available at Aimeos.com
