Hi Felipe,

I wasn't aware of this extension, going to give it a shot and let you know.

I'm wondering if the csv is the best option, especially as you mention ezxmldatatype, that are likely to contain \n. If you mention importing big things, the xml format might be more appropriate ?

Thinking loud...

Could this be tied in with an export function too - would mean its a pretty complete package then?

Hi,

Have a look at gabriel's contribution (csv export). It works great. They are other contribs too.

Hello everyone,

We have had recent success with Xavier's modifications on the importXMLData extension, managing to do thousands of imports (only on Windows for now). I guess we will put the funding of this extension on hold for now.

Regarding export CSV, I believe this is pretty simple to accomplish using template code, whereas importing is another matter altogether.

Where I see possibilities of merging is in the CSV, XML and other import utilities, where the parsing of the data is unique, but the importing and attribute value assignment are exactly the same.

I will keep you all posted as we make progress.

Regards,

Felipe
