FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package feed-importer

Tom's Feed Importer

Because everybody loves importing csv files...

Why?

Importing data from csv feeds can be hard. Often you'll end up with a custom implementation, closely coupling the downloading, reading, processing of the data. Each of them comes with their own difficulties and complexity. Is it on disk, http or a SSL authenticated ftp? Do you even have enough memory or diskspace available to download and extract that 2GB large gzipped, 12GB unzipped products.csv.gz?

The result is often a mess of control code mixed in with your business logic. And then you need to do the same but differently for another feed, and you end up duplicating half of your code and rewriting the rest. I have been there too! And I was feed up with it (pun intended).

What

What if I told you that you now can just define the feed, write your logic to process a single record and be done?

Tom's Feed Importer abstracts all the feed handling parts away and just gives you the records one by one, so that you can process them in small, sizeable parts.

You can either use a foreach / generator approach, or a callback function. Whichever suits your needs the best.

With foreach / generator

With callback function

It mostly comes down to defining your feed parameters with a FeedDefinition. See the options page in the docs for a reference of the available options.
