The shop generator generates a list of folders & xml files into 'generated_data' dir which should be copied in the /install/fixtures/fashion directory of PrestaShop, to generate at the installation a shop initialized with the specified number of entities.
To setup the configuration of the module, just run
composer install
This will generates a configuration file in app/config/config.yml
php app/console.php
Make sure to have enough memory allocated to php, as it could eat a lot of memory depending on the number of entities you want to generate
Each entity model is described in the src/Model directory.
If you want to add a new Model, create of file with the same name the class it's related to, and an entry in the app/config/config.yml.dist file (the name should be the pluralized & tablized version of the model name).
The model file is in yml format, and contains three main section:
-
The fields section (required)
This section describes the list of fields of an entity (not language related).
Available options in this section:
-
columns (required)
Describe each field of the entity we want to generate.
Syntax:
columns: id: type: increment id_state: relation: State exclusive_fields: id_customer: relation: Customer id_manufacturer: relation: Manufacturer id_supplier: relation: Supplier id_warehouse: value: 0 alias: type: words args: - 10 #nb words id_customer: relation: Customer conditions: id_guest: 1 name: type: word args: - 10 #nb chars hidden: true price: type: numberBetween args: - 1 #start - 1000 #stop wholesale_price: value: '{price}/100'
-
the 'type' property
-
'increment' is a simple autoincrement.
-
'conditionalValue' allow to generate value depending on a condition. Example:
default_on: type: conditionalValue args: - isNewValue({id_product}) # condition - 1 # value if condition is true - null # value if condition is false
The isNewValue is a special function which checks if the value related to the field {id_product} has changed since the last time we have generated an entity.
- other properly value allows to generate random value. , another types available are described from the faker module: https://github.com/FakerPHP/Faker
If you need to pass an argument to a faker function, just add the 'args:' tag like in the above example.
If you want to generate a field, but hide it from the final result, add the "hidden: true" property (only useful if the field in question is referenced as an "id", but only present in the field_lang)
-
-
the 'relation' property
The 'relation' property indicates it should generates the value from an another entity (it will use a value from the 'id' of the other entity).
If the 'generate_all' property is used in conjunction with a relation type, it means we should use all the existing relations instead of just choosing a random one. It's especially usefull if we want for example generate combinations for every product in the database:
fields: class: 'Combination' columns: id: type: increment id_product: relation: Product generate_all: true
If the 'conditions' property is used in conjunction with a relation type, it means all the fields specified should have the specified value in the related entity:
fields: class: 'Guest' columns: id: type: increment id_customer: relation: Customer conditions: is_guest: 1
-
the 'value' property
The 'value' property sets a specific value for the column. It could also be a reference to another column, or a mathematical expression, like the "wholesale_price" in the example above.
-
the 'exclusive_fields' property
Some columns should have a value only if other column are not set. That's the purpose of this property. In the example above only one randomly chosen field among id_customer/id_manufacturer/id_supplier will be set.
-
-
class (optional)
The name of the class related to the entity.
Example:
class: 'Carrier'
-
sql (optional)
Sql argument when want to add to help debugging
Example:
sql: 'a.id_carrier > 1'
-
id
The 'id' tag sets which field inside the 'columns' property should be considered as a the reference unique field for relation resolution.
Example:
id: 'name'
-
primary
When the primary tag is used, the script iterate over all the existing values, excepted if there's a 'generate_all: true' tag present (the fields in the 'primary' tag should be described as relations to other entities)
Example:
primary: 'id_carrier, id_group' columns: id_carrier: relation: Carrier id_group: relation: Group
-
image (optional)
Generate random images in the given relative path of the generated_data/img/ directory for each entity. It's used in conjonction with image_width, image_height and image_category.
Example:
image: 'c' image_width: 141 image_height: 180 image_category: abstract
Possible image_category are:
abstract animals business cats city food night life fashion people nature sports technics transport
-
-
The fields_lang section (optional)
This section describes the list of fields present in the language related part of the entity (if any).
You can set an optional 'id_shop' tag and a 'columns' property which support the type same 'value' and 'type' than the 'fields' section.
Example:
fields_lang: id_shop: 1 columns: name: type: words args: - 6 description: type: sentence description_short: type: sentence args: - 4 link_rewrite: type: slug available_now: value: In stock
-
The entities section (optional)
This section describes any custom entities we want to create (no random generation for those one).
The key of each entry used will be used as the 'id' of the entity
Example:
entities: My_carrier: fields: id_reference: 2 active: 1 shipping_handling: 1 range_behaviour: 0 is_free: 0 shipping_external: 0 need_range: 0 shipping_method: 0 max_width: 0 max_height: 0 max_depth: 0 max_weight: 0 grade: 0 name: My carrier url: ~ fields_lang: delay: Delivery next day!
If you want to use a default xml file instead of generating one using the entity model, just put it in the default_data directory.
It will be automatically parsed by the script and will be taken into account for the existing entity relations.
