Installation

The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.

Either run

php composer.phar require --prefer-dist elfuvo/yii2-import-wizard "~0.2.0"

or add

"elfuvo/yii2-import-wizard": "~0.2.0"

to the "require" section of your composer.json file.

Configure

Configure service for importing, Importing result keeper and available import adapters.

// in common app config
[
'container'=>[
    'definitions' => [
           \elfuvo\import\services\ImportServiceInterface::class => [
                'class' => \elfuvo\import\services\ImportService::class,
                'casters' => [
                    // there is a custom value casters 
                    // \elfuvo\import\services\BracketValueCaster::class,
                ]
            ],
            \elfuvo\import\result\ResultImportInterface::class =>

                ]
            ],    
        ],
    ],
];

I18n

Add translations to i18n yii component:

[
    'components' => [
        'i18n' => [
                'class' => \yii\i18n\I18N::class,

                    ],
                ],
        ]
    ]
];

Actions

Add import steps actions to your controller

class DefaultController extend \yii\web\Controller{
    
    public function actions()
    {
        return [
            'upload-file-import' => [ // action with form for uploading import file
                'class' => \elfuvo\import\actions\UploadFileAction::class,
                ...
            ],
            'setup-import' => [ // action with import configuration form
                'class' => \elfuvo\import\actions\SetupAction::class,
                ...
            ],
            'progress' => [ // action for showing current import progress/statistic and errors after import is done
                'class' => \elfuvo\import\actions\ProgressAction::class,
            ],
        ];
    }
}

Upload import file action

    public function actions()
    {
        return [
            'upload-file-import' => [
                'class' => \elfuvo\import\actions\UploadFileAction::class,
                'model' => new Review(), // model instance for import
                'nextAction' => 'setup-import', // next action name
                'progressAction' => 'progress', // name of progress action
            ],
            ...
        ];
    }

Upload import file action with pre-defined attribute map

If you are using attribute map, that you don't need configure setup action. Import starts after file uploaded.

    public function actions()
    {
        return [
            'upload-file-import-map' => [
                'class' => UploadFileAction::class,
                // model instance with pre-defined attribute values. It will be cloned in import service.
                // can be callable function that returns model
                'model' => new Review([
                    'language' => 'ru',
                    'hidden' => Review::HIDDEN_NO,
                ]),
                'startRowIndex' => 2,
                // can be callable function that return array of MapAttribute models
                // first argument for that function is first row from import file
                'attributeMap' => [
                    new MapAttribute([
                        'column' => 'A',
                        'attribute' => 'b24StationId',
                        'castTo' => BracketValueCaster::class,
                    ]),
                    new MapAttribute([
                        'column' => 'B',
                        'attribute' => 'title',
                        'castTo' => MapAttribute::TYPE_STRING,
                        'identity' => 1,
                    ]),
                    new MapAttribute([
                        'column' => 'C',
                        'attribute' => 'author',
                        'castTo' => MapAttribute::TYPE_STRING,
                    ]),
                    new MapAttribute([
                        'column' => 'D',
                        'attribute' => 'text',
                        'castTo' => MapAttribute::TYPE_STRING,
                    ]),
                    new MapAttribute([
                        'column' => 'E',
                        'attribute' => 'rating',
                        'castTo' => MapAttribute::TYPE_FLOAT,
                    ]),
                    new MapAttribute([
                        'column' => 'F',
                        'attribute' => 'publishAt',
                        'castTo' => MapAttribute::TYPE_DATETIME,
                    ]),
                ],
                'progressAction' => 'progress',
            ],
        ];
   }

Import setup action

    public function actions()
    {
        return [
        ...
        'setup-import' => [
                'class' => \elfuvo\import\actions\SetupAction::class,
                // model instance with pre-defined attribute values. It will be cloned in import service.
                /*'model' => new Review([ 
                      'hidden' => Review::HIDDEN_NO,
                      'language' => Yii::$app->language,
                      'createdBy' => Yii::$app->user->getId(),
                ])*/
                // can be callable function
                'model' => function(){ 
                    $importModel = new Review([
                        'hidden' => Review::HIDDEN_NO,
                        'language' => Yii::$app->language,
                        'createdBy' => Yii::$app->user->getId(),
                    ]);
                    // some behaviors do not work in console app (for queued import)
                    // there we can disable them 
                    $importModel->detachBehavior('LanguageBehavior');
                    $importModel->detachBehavior('CreatedByBehavior');
                    
                    return $importModel;
                },                     
                'scenario' => Review::SCENARIO_DEFAULT, // scenario of model validation when saving model from import
                'previousAction' => 'upload-file-import', // previous action name
                'excludeAttributes' => [ // exclude model attributes for building import map
                    'id',
                    'language',
                    'createdBy',
                    'createdAt',
                    'updatedAt'
                ]
            ],
        ];
    )

Current progress action

    public function actions() {
        return [
            ...
            'progress' => [
                'class' => \elfuvo\import\actions\ProgressAction::class,
                'model' => new Review(),
            ],
        ];
    }

Queue job

If queue component is not configured for Yii application then import will start immediately. Otherwise ImportJob will be added to the task queue.

Yii2 queue.

Import link button

Add import link button into your module view:

    <?= Html::a(Yii::t('import-wizard', 'Import models from Excel file'), ['upload-file-import'], [
         'class' => 'btn btn-primary'
    ]) ?>

Additional notes

Model validation rules used as detection for casting value from import. This actual for setup import action. It is necessary to carefully consider validation of the model, as bad validation may lead to incorrect data insertion (for example: a date from Excel cannot be inserted as a date in MySql) and errors when inserting data into the database.

    /**
     * @inheritdoc
     */
    public function rules()
    {
        return [
                [['rating'], 'double', 'min' => 1, 'max' => 5], // will add float converter in import wizard
                [['publishAt'], 'date', 'format' => 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss'], // will add date converter in import wizard
        ];
    }

Important! Import file must have column(s) with unique (identity) values for updating existing models.
