BigBridge Product Import
Hi! My name is Patrick van Bergen. I created this library because I needed product import to be fast.
This library imports product data into Magento 2 via direct database queries. It has these main features
- A programming library to import products
- An CLI command for product import via XML file
- A web API service for product import via Post Request with XML
- A tool to update url_rewrites
Note
The aim of this library is speed. If you find that Magento 2's product importer is too slow, consider using this library.
Experiment with the library in a safe webshop. Make sure to create a database backup before you start.
Sample code
Let me show you a piece of code to give you an impression what it is like to use this library:
$importer = $factory->createImporter($config);
foreach ($lines as $i => $line) {
$product = new SimpleProduct($line[1]);
// global eav attributes
$global = $product->global();
$global->setName($line[0]);
$global->setPrice($line[2]);
// German eav attributes
$german = $product->storeView('de_store');
$german->setName($line[3]);
$german->setPrice($line[4]);
$importer->importSimpleProduct($product);
}
// process any remaining products in the pipeline
$importer->flush();

XML file import tool
The XML import tool allows you to import product data with an XML file. It is fast and has a fixed, low memory footprint.
bin/magento bigbridge:product:import

Web API import service
The web api service performs the same service as the file import tool. But it is accessible via an XML REST call.
/rest/V1/bigbridge/products
It is a POST call and the XML is passed in the request body.

The url_rewrite tool
Since Magento's url_rewrite table can get corrupted in many ways, it is necessary to have a tool to fix it.
This tool has the following features:
- Fast, it writes queries directly.
- It imposes no downtime for the webshop
- It updates the url_rewrite and catalog_url_rewrite_product_category per product
- It respects Magento's configuration setting "Create Permanent Redirect for URLs if URL Key Changed"
- It does not delete existing 301 url_rewrite redirects
- It does not overwrite existing non-product rewrites
- Updating single store views is possible
- Products with a visibility of "not-visible-individually" get no url_rewrite (since they would have no use; this is Magento 2 policy)
bin/magento bigbridge:product:urlrewrite

Changes to Magento
The extension adds an index CATALOG_PRODUCT_ENTITY_VARCHAR_ATTRIBUTE_ID_VALUE to catalog_product_entity_varchar because it drastically speeds up checking for duplicate url_keys.

Thanks to Martijn van Berkel for first volunteering to use the importer in production environments and for providing valuable feedback.
This project owes a great deal of ideas and inspiration from Magmi / Magento 1 Magmi
