django-icecat

Django Icecat integration

Documentation

Be sure to checkout the official IceCat documentation before you start with importing any of the data.

Installation

Install the package, and add it to your applications:

$ pip install django-icecat

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'icecat',
    ...
)

Add your login credentials in settings.py

# Required:
ICECAT_API_USERNAME = 'xyz'
ICECAT_API_PASSWORD = 'foobar'

# Optional:
ICECAT_API_LANGUAGE = 1  # The language you want to import, defaults to 1 (EN), NL = 2, See [LanguageList.xml](https://data.icecat.biz/export/level4/refs/LanguageList.xml.gz) for other languages
ICECAT_TMP_PATH = '/tmp'  # The path where the xml files will be stored for faster access. 

Be sure to run the migrations:

$ ./application/manage.py migrate icecat

And you can run the commands:

$ ./application/manage.py import_categories
$ ./application/manage.py import_suppliers
$ ./application/manage.py import_products [path to index or daily delta]

If you want to import all the products, it is advised to first import the categories and suppliers. Also: be sure to save up on Starbucks coupons, as a total product import can take quite a while.
