Developer Training

Goals- Overview of OroCRM integration techniques- Demonstrate implementation of integration

with PrestaShop- Share best practices

Developer Training

Integration challenges- Keeping data synced- Performance- Full and incremental sync

Developer Training

Change Data Capture (CDC)- Timestamps- Version Numbers- Status indicators- Time/Version/Status

Introduction

OroImportExportBundle:- provides abstraction for processors, converters, normalizers and strategies

OroIntegrationBundle:- interaction between third party services and the platform- provides abstraction for integrations, transports and connectors

Developer Training

Terminology- Integration Channel Type- Integration Channel- Transport- Connector

Developer Training

Integrations in OroCRM- Magento- ZenDesk- MailChimp

Developer Training

Goals- Create UI for PrestaShop Integration management- Create PrestShop Customer entity- Import Customers from PrestaShop into our custom entity- Create associated Contacts and Accounts

Step 1: Bundle creationsrc/OroTutorial/Bundle/PrestashopBundlehttp://www.orocrm.com/documentation/index/current/cookbook/how-to-create-new-bundle

Note: need to set bundle priority > 20 since we depend on Account and Contact bundles in oro/bundles.yml:bundles: - { name: OroTutorial\Bundle\PrestashopBundle\OroTutorialPrestashopBundle, priority: 99 }

Step 2: Integration Channel Type- implements Oro\Bundle\IntegrationBundle\Provider\ChannelInterface

- register with oro_integration.channel tag using unique type

Step 3: PrestaShop Customer entity- extends BasePerson

- should use IntegrationEntityTrait

- should be a configurable entity (defined by annotation: Oro\Bundle\EntityConfigBundle\Metadata\Annotation\Config)

- remoteId should be a configurable field (defined by annotation: Oro\Bundle\EntityConfigBundle\Metadata\Annotation\ConfigField)

Step 4: Implement TransportResponsibility of transport is communication between connector and channel1. Implement transport type

- extends Oro\Bundle\IntegrationBundle\Provider\Rest\Transport\AbstractRestTransport

- registered by oro_integration.transport tag with specified type and channel_type

2. Create form to display on channel configuration page- PrestaShop API requires API key and connection endpoint

3. Create entity that will store transport settings- extends Oro\Bundle\IntegrationBundle\Entity\Transport

Step 5: Migrations- create ot_prestashop_customer table- add columns to oro_integration_transport to store connection settings

Step 6: ConnectorGetting customers from PrestaShop that have been updated after our last sync

- create importexport.yml for suitability- create batch_jobs.yml

Notes: - we injected RegistryInterface to be able to retrieve last sync date- importexport.yml is declared in extension file

Let’s check what we have so farwe should be able to configure and create our custom

Step 7: Iterator- extends Oro\Bundle\IntegrationBundle\Provider\Rest\Client\AbstractRestIterator- implements methods:

loadPage()getRowsFromPageData()getTotalCountFromPageData()

Update RestTransport to use our iterator for retrieving customers from Prestashop

Step 8: Data ConverterData converter is responsible for converting header of import data

- basically a map of entity fields between source (PrestaShop) and target (OroCRM)

- extends Oro\Bundle\ImportExportBundle\Converter\AbstractTableDataConverter

- registered by tag oro_integration.connector and injected into processor

Step 9: Data Normalizer/DenormalizerRequired for converting array representation to entity objects and visa versa

- registered by oro_importexport.normalizer tag name- extends ConfigurableEntityNormalizer from OroIntegrationBundle

(This is why we created our PrestaShop customer as a configurable entity )

- on denormalize() set current integration to PrestaShop customer- introduced DateTimeNormalizer to take care in date/time format differences

Step 10: Strategy and Processor

Strategy- extends Oro\Bundle\ImportExportBundle\Strategy\Import\ConfigurableAddOrReplaceStrategy

- customize findExistingEntity() to filter entities by integration channel- inject logger to show integration process

Processor- extends Oro\Bundle\ImportExportBundle\Processor\ImportProcessor

- no separate classes required for our simple case but we have to configure processor in imporexport.yml

Wrap upAre we missing anything ?

What about Contacts and Accounts?

We’ll utilize Workflow bundle and add a process definition into process.yml that will:

- be triggered upon creation of new PrestaShop customer- create new Contact associated to PrestaShop customer- create new Account associated to the new Contact

Note: we need to make sure that job queue daemon is running to execute our processes
