Introduction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Following our exploration of the DTO approach in Part 1, we’ll now dive into the Hybrid approach for product imports. This method combines programmatic product creation with CSV data enrichment, offering flexibility while maintaining control over the core product structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

System Architecture<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Implementation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Base Product Generator<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
namespace Vendor\\Module\\Model;\n\nclass BaseProductGenerator\n{\n    private $productFactory;\n    private $attributeSetRepository;\n    private $storeManager;\n\n    public function createBaseProduct(string $sku): ProductInterface\n    {\n        $product = $this->productFactory->create();\n\n        $product->setSku($sku)\n            ->setAttributeSetId($this->getDefaultAttributeSetId())\n            ->setStatus(\\Magento\\Catalog\\Model\\Product\\Attribute\\Source\\Status::STATUS_ENABLED)\n            ->setTypeId(\\Magento\\Catalog\\Model\\Product\\Type::TYPE_SIMPLE)\n            ->setVisibility(\\Magento\\Catalog\\Model\\Product\\Visibility::VISIBILITY_BOTH)\n            ->setWebsiteIds($this->getWebsiteIds());\n\n        return $product;\n    }\n\n    private function getDefaultAttributeSetId(): int\n    {\n        return $this->attributeSetRepository->get(4)->getAttributeSetId();\n    }\n\n    private function getWebsiteIds(): array\n    {\n        return array_keys($this->storeManager->getWebsites());\n    }\n}<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
2. Product Enricher<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
namespace Vendor\\Module\\Model;\n\nclass ProductEnricher\n{\n    private $productRepository;\n    private $mediaProcessor;\n    private $attributeProcessor;\n\n    public function enrichFromCsv(ProductInterface $product, array $data): void\n    {\n        $this->processBasicAttributes($product, $data);\n        $this->processCustomAttributes($product, $data);\n        $this->processCategories($product, $data);\n        $this->processImages($product, $data);\n        $this->processInventory($product, $data);\n\n        $this->productRepository->save($product);\n    }\n\n    private function processBasicAttributes(ProductInterface $product, array $data): void\n    {\n        $basicAttributes = [\n            'name' => $data['name'] ?? '',\n            'price' => $data['price'] ?? null,\n            'description' => $data['description'] ?? '',\n            'short_description' => $data['short_description'] ?? ''\n        ];\n\n        foreach ($basicAttributes as $code => $value) {\n            if ($value !== null) {\n                $product->setData($code, $value);\n            }\n        }\n    }\n\n    private function processCustomAttributes(ProductInterface $product, array $data): void\n    {\n        foreach ($data as $code => $value) {\n            if ($this->attributeProcessor->isCustomAttribute($code)) {\n                $this->attributeProcessor->processAttribute($product, $code, $value);\n            }\n        }\n    }\n}<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
3. Import Service<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
namespace Vendor\\Module\\Service;\n\nclass HybridImportService\n{\n    private $baseGenerator;\n    private $enricher;\n    private $indexerRegistry;\n    private $logger;\n\n    public function import(string $filePath): ImportResult\n    {\n        $result = new ImportResult();\n\n        try {\n            $this->disableIndexers();\n\n            foreach ($this->readCsvInChunks($filePath) as $row) {\n                try {\n                    $product = $this->baseGenerator->createBaseProduct($row['sku']);\n                    $this->enricher->enrichFromCsv($product, $row);\n                    $result->addSuccess($row['sku']);\n                } catch (\\Exception $e) {\n                    $result->addError($row['sku'], $e->getMessage());\n                    $this->logger->error($e->getMessage(), ['sku' => $row['sku']]);\n                }\n            }\n\n            $this->reindexAffectedProducts($result->getSuccessful());\n        } catch (\\Exception $e) {\n            $result->setFatalError($e->getMessage());\n        } finally {\n            $this->enableIndexers();\n        }\n\n        return $result;\n    }\n\n    private function disableIndexers(): void\n    {\n        foreach ($this->getIndexers() as $indexer) {\n            $indexer->setScheduled(true);\n        }\n    }\n\n    private function reindexAffectedProducts(array $skus): void\n    {\n        \/\/ Reindex only affected products\n    }\n}<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Advanced Features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
1. Attribute Processing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
namespace Vendor\\Module\\Model;\n\nclass AttributeProcessor\n{\n    private $eavConfig;\n    private $storeManager;\n\n    public function processAttribute(ProductInterface $product, string $code, $value): void\n    {\n        $attribute = $this->eavConfig->getAttribute('catalog_product', $code);\n\n        switch ($attribute->getFrontendInput()) {\n            case 'select':\n                $this->processSelectAttribute($product, $attribute, $value);\n                break;\n            case 'multiselect':\n                $this->processMultiselectAttribute($product, $attribute, $value);\n                break;\n            \/\/ Handle other attribute types\n        }\n    }\n\n    private function processSelectAttribute(ProductInterface $product, $attribute, $value): void\n    {\n        $optionId = $this->getOptionId($attribute, $value);\n        $product->setData($attribute->getAttributeCode(), $optionId);\n    }\n}<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
2. Transaction Management<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
namespace Vendor\\Module\\Model;\n\nclass TransactionManager\n{\n    private $resource;\n\n    public function execute(callable $callback): void\n    {\n        $connection = $this->resource->getConnection();\n        $connection->beginTransaction();\n\n        try {\n            $callback();\n            $connection->commit();\n        } catch (\\Exception $e) {\n            $connection->rollBack();\n            throw $e;\n        }\n    }\n}<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
