Wiki here : https://github.com/autotelik/datashift_spree/wiki

Versions

This release has been tested against Spree 3.1

Installation

Requires datashift.

Add to bundle :

gem 'datashift'
gem 'datashift_spree'

Create a high level .thor file (thor will search root or lib/tasks) so for example lib/tasks/shop.thor

require 'datashift'
require 'datashift_spree'

DataShift::load_commands
DataShift::SpreeEcom::load_commands

To check the available tasks run thor list with a search term, for example

    bundle exec thor list datashift
    bundle exec thor list datashift_spree

New functionality and options under active development so check latest usage information via thor help <command> ... for example

    bundle exec thor help datashift_spree:load:products

Features

Template Generation

You can create Excel templates of models through the task datashift:generate:excel

For example to create a template for loading Products, including all associations

datashift:generate:excel -m Spree::Product --assoc -r tmp/product_template.xls

Import and Export Spree models through .xls or CSV files, including all associations and setting configurable defaults or over rides.

High level thor command line tasks for import/export provided.

Specific loaders and command line tasks provided out the box for Spree E-Commerce, enabling import/export of Product data including creating Variants with different count on hands and all associations including Properties/Taxons/OptionTypes and Images.

Loaders can be configured via YAML with over ride values, default values and mandatory column settings.

Many example Spreadsheets/CSV files in spec/fixtures, fully documented with comments for each column.

Testing

We use RSpec, so tests located in the spec subdirectory.

To test this gem we require an actual Spree store, so when the specs are first run a dummy Rails app is created containing a Spree store, whose version we can control in spec/Gemfile so it's easy to change the Spree version and re-run the specs.

It's therefor recommended that all testing be done in spec dir itself, so first cd into spec

Edit spec/Gemfile and set the version of Spree you wish to test against and run bundler :

    cd spec
    bundle install

When changing Spree versions, you should force a rebuild of a clean sandbox, and removing the Gemfile.lock will resolve any funny version issues, so run:

    cd spec
    rm -rf dummy
    rm -rf Gemfile.lock

thor datashift:spree_tasks:build_sandbox

The next time you run rspec the sandbox will be regenerated using the latest versions of Rails/Spree specified in your Gemfile

    bundle exec rspec -c .
